you might want to sell your stock.

so you might want to sell your stock in coca-cola. because this former staple of my diet- diet coke- is now off the table for me.

why? you ask.

well because it was raining a week ago on sunday night.

and i didn't want to go out in the rain to get some. and i decided that perhaps if i wasn't addicted enough to go out and get some simply because it was raining, i might not be as addicted to it as everyone probably thought.

so i just up and switched to drinking water. and maybe an iced tea or two.

and you know how they tell you that you'll have headaches and all kinds of reactions to giving up soda? well, i had no problems at all. none. what-so-ever. i feel exactly the same as before.

now i will tell you that i've had two diet cokes since the quit day. one on saturday night at dinner. and one while driving home on sunday. but that second one was more or less because someone handed me one when i was leaving. and not because i wanted one. but even so, after i had them, i was fine. i didn't crave anymore. and i didn't go buy anymore. and i'm not planning on doing so. i might as well save myself the 12 bucks a week, i guess.

so really, you might want to sell your stock in coke.
