About two months ago, I forgot to bring a quarter or two to buy a Coke here at work and there was no one around that day to lend me one. So I had to go the whole day without Coke. (So sad fo yu) Then I guess I had a pretty busy weekend and didn’t seem to get a chance to go get one then either. So Monday comes and I am walking past the break room and naturally check my pocket for a quarter. Then I realize, “It’s been three whole days since I had a Coke. Hmmmm, no headaches all weekend, why not see how long I can go without one, and it may save me a buck or two without having to dial that lame 10-10-220.” So I did it. I started a Coke free diet. Then I thought, “why stop there?” I cleaned out my candy box (eating as I went of course). Hadn’t had a Coke til last week Jon buys me a new Vanilla Coke and just gives it to me. I figured, “Hey, it’s been a while, I can try it and just see how I feel.” Man what a drag. Headache all day, icky sluggish feeling for a while, no real caffeine rush or even a sugar rush for that matter. So now I’m off Coke. If I make it til New Years, I can give my dad crap about giving up Dr. Pepper.
