Diet Coke in the house

1226 days ago

After more than six weeks of me not drinking any Diet Coke, Niki's cousin is visiting and we have a case of very attractive cans in our kitchen.

I'll let you know how it goes...

Update: There are like four frosty cold cans of Diet Coke in our refrigerator this morning. None in the basement where I work. So far I'm winning the battle of wills, but it has only been 12 hours since they arrived. I don't know when her cousin is leaving, but I'm afraid she won't be able to drink all of them before she goes. I want to give a shout out to Gavin for the positive words of support and to Dave for dropping off those motivational audio tapes.

There is one lonely can left in my basement refrigerator. Various guests have used up all of the others. I like seeing it there, knowing it has no power over me anymore.

Be aware: diet soda has a shorter shelf life than regular soda. I learned it from the man with all your soda answers:

I can only dream of those four beautiful cans in my fridge... maybe if I wish really hard.

So I have been gone for almost a month now... are the cans still there or are they gone? I think I drank about 8 before I left.
