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!
