Why I gain weight

I mentioned to Linda that I had discovered the reason I was gaining weight. Obviously, because I consume more calories than I need. In illustration of the point, I mentioned, "A Milky Way has 240 calories. Did you know that a Mountain Dew has only 170."

I think she took it the wrong way, "Oh, I don't know. That makes a Mountain Dew sound pretty reasonable."

Something about the way she popped that comment off made me laugh for a long time.
