Breakfast

So, I had an embarrassing coughing fit at work yesterday morning. I was just sitting at my desk, minding my own business. I was enjoying my coffee and dry Cinnamon Toast Crunch while surfing the internet (what?  it takes me a while to warm up to work) working hard.  I was working.

Do you ever notice how much cinnamon and sugar is on this cereal? When I eat it at home with milk, the milk dissolves most of it. Eating it dry, you're taking your life into your own hands.

I made the mistake of breathing in as I ate. Cinnamon and sugar galore rushed to the back of my throat. I coughed, which only made it worse. (Note to self: trying not to cough only makes you cough more.)

One co-worker asked if I was okay. I, of course, was choking and could not reply, but gave him a thumbs up. He offered water. Another co-worker came by with a cough drop.

Yes, these are the days of my life.
