Well, no cheesecake for me. We went up there at lunch and got our cheesecake to go. I got a key lime mango cheesecake. It looked great. It was beautiful and delicious looking. It was bigger than the normal cheesecake I was going to get so I figured I would eat half for lunch and then be done. Probably about the same calories or less that way. Anyways… I get back to the office take one bite and it’s awesome. I’m drooling all over myself and just mmmm… good! Then, I felt something in my mouth that just didn’t go with the creamy consistency of cheesecake. OMG it was coconut! I’m allergic to coconut!!! I ask around and nobody has Benadryl. I go to the CEO’s assistant and ask if she has some and tell her why. She’s calling around, calls HR and is told we’re not allowed to stock it as a company but to keep calling around. Nobody has any Benadryl. I was just going to drive to CVS and get some but HR lady says she can’t let me drive because I would be a liability if my throat closes up and wreck my car. They decide to call 911 to come give me an epi shot. I tell them I don’t want to do that because I don’t want to pay for it. They told me I don’t have to pay anything unless I go with them. The CEO’s assistant is picking up the phone to call 911 and someone literally comes running in with some Benadryl. I take the Benadryl and am following it up with some coffee to help speed it up. So, I will be falling asleep here in about 30 minutes but at least I can breathe and am within my calorie range for the day!
Now I am cheesecake-less… WAAAAHHH!!!! Oh well… just another day in the life of perfect imperfection! Ha ha ha!
