I was kinda freaking out about it this morning. I went to my 2-liter of diet coke only to find it empty! I was trying to remain calm but was already feeling the withdrawl headache coming on. So I start trying to figure out how I am going to get to the store with Izzy being sick and maybe I could just go through a drive through with her! Yes, that is what I will do. Then I realize that I have already put her down for her nap so I can't leave.
Crap! That means I have to wait 2 hours before I can have a diet coke. Okay,Okay just calm down I say. I can have water or tea or even lemonade. I try to make do but it is NOT working. So I decide to keep my mind off of it by doing a little prep for dinner. I start looking for the onion in the fridge. It is all the way in the back behind the milk jug. So I take out the milk jug and pull the onion out and as I am doing that a shiny silver can catches my eye! Could it be.... yes it is! I see those 2 words on the side of the can that make me so HAPPY! DIET COKE! I quickly throw the onion back in the fridge and run to get a glass of ice. I crack open that can and hear the air release from the can. Then I pour it over the ice and listen to fizz. I can't wait for the fizz to die down so I take a swig and that amazing burn enters my throat and all I can do is say "ahhhhhh!" All seems right with the world again and I can focus and get on with my day. But I have to say Hi, my name is Leslie and I am addicted to Diet Coke!
