Currently listening to: "Forever My Friend" - Ray Lamontagne
So the clarion call went out today. Man cannot live on Coca Cola alone. As many of you know, I have a serious addiction, one that has consumed me for about 15 years. I am guilty of being a slave to Coca-Cola. I start my day off with one for breakfast, pop a can to accompany my lunch, drink one to round out the work day, pour up a glass to wash down dinner, and I drink my final one to put me to sleep at night. It has all worked out seemingly well. Despite all of the warnings that my kidneys would fall out, and that I'm setting myself up for pancreatic cancer , I've seemed to come out on top....until recently.
So now, I've been told I have to give up the bubbly. Not cold turkey, but I've got to make some significant life changes, or I'm going to crash and burn. In true Krystle fashion, I had to do my own research. This piqued my interest slightly: "What Are the Dangers of Coke?" I found it interesting that the article notes that "additional side effects include trouble sleeping if you drink Coke shortly before bedtime." Sorry folks, but Coke is my chamomille tea....
What this all boils down to is that I'm going to try my hardest to change my ways. I'll buy some bottled water, make myself drink out my filtered pitcher. I can't make any promises, folks. This means you might have to pry a coke can out of my cold, dark, lifeless hands when I go--but at least i'll go happy!
