Caffeine makes you do funny things 20 December, 2009 at 6:34 pm

So, after the Disney trip I quit drinking caffeinated sodas.  Don’t get me wrong, that means I’ve been drinking 2 or 3 root beers a day, but that’s way down from 6-8 diet sodas.  One problem at a time.  Thanksgiving week was my third week off; I made sure to start early enough that I wasn’t in early withdrawal for the drive :o

At kiir’s grandmother’s xmas part, I had a headache, so i had my first caffeinated drink.  No one had excedrin, which is what I usually take, which has caffeine in it.  So aspirin and a coke, very similiar.

One day at the office I had tried my cherry coke zero, and discovered that I HATE cherry coke.  OMG.  put the rest of the pack (only about 4 cans) in the shared kitchen.  They vanished, so someone must’ve taken them.

Yesterday DK brought me a pair of diet dr peppers.  Which was always funny, and usually timely, when he used to do it occasionally.  This morning I had a headache again, so I opened one up.  It turns out I can’t stand aspartame.  Doesn’t just have a bad aftertaste, the actual taste was pretty foul.  At least, I presume it’s the aspartame.  Kindof a nuisance if I suddenly don’t like DrP anymore either :o

Vanilla Coke tasted a little funny, but I don’t know that wasn’t just the aftertaste from the diet doc.  It wasn’t so bad I couldn’t drink it, which was an improvement at any rate.

Apparently in my pursuit for constant caffeine, I drank things I really don’t like :o  At least I never stooped to coffee!
