Conversation With My Heart

heart: So big shot, you're really going do it.
me: Do what?
heart: Order poutine, I mean, you can't be serious.
me: You better believe I'm serious, I live for this deliciousness.
heart: Don't you mean to say "you kill" for this deliciousness...because that's what you're doing!
heart: How did I get stuck with someone willing to throw down good money for fries topped with cheese and gravy?
me: These aren't just any fries, they're Duckfat fries -- and the poutine is Maine Cheese Curd & Homemade Duck Gravy.
heart: And what's your point?
me: These fries are the best tasting fries anywhere and these toppings -- they're so fresh and full of flavor that...
heart: That what?
me: That it's worth listening to you whine.
heart: Whine! I'm not whining, I am pleading for our lives.
me: Hey, I jog, I don't eat poutine every day. I take care of us, pretty much.
heart: Look dude, I watched you flexing your so-called biceps in the mirror last night. That was laughable. You need to knock off the poutine and get us to the gym.
me: All right, after this plate, I promise to take the month of September off. I'll just stick to Duckfat panini’s (and small cones of Belgian fries).
heart: Look, do whatever you want to do. I am just telling it like it is.
me: You look, I can't resist Duckfat. I haven't met anyone who can. The people are nice. The food is amazing. I think it's the best cheap eats in town.
heart: You're killing me.
me: Try not to think about it!
Comments
Hey, at least your heart is still talking to you. Mine passed out three years ago and I haven't heard squat out of it since.

Casting Call
I think the poutine should have been a third character in this dialog.
Maybe just humming to itself in obvious satisfaction or something.
