Diet Coke has gotten ahold of me and won't let go. I can't stop drinking the stuff, which is odd considering I don't even like it. I don't like it because it makes me think of vomit. This is because when I was in junior high I didn't want to go to school (shocker, huh!) but I had already faked being sick too much. This led me to come up with the brilliant idea of making myself throw up by drinking ipecac. I didn't want to just chug the ipecac though, so I mixed it with Diet Coke and myself a little vomit cocktail. Needless to say, it did its job, and I haven't been able to drink Diet Coke ever since . . . or at least until a few weeks ago. I went through a whole two-liter all by myself today.
This has got to stop. Anyone who knows me knows I have never been a soda person. I always, always drink water. Not even juice or milk, only water. If it's a special day or I'm feeling a little crazy, I may add a slice of lemon, but that's as far as it ever went. About two years ago I bought several twelve-packs of different sodas, and I drank one or two of each kind, and then carted the packs with me from one apartment to the next, and then back to my parents house, where my Dad finally got rid of them all a month ago. I think I need an intervention or something. Could someone please call A&E. (Notice that I ended that sentence with a period instead of a question mark. This is because it wasn't a question, it was a command.) Thanks.

In my world, "A&E" refers to "Arts & Entertainment."
Not sure how that will ease your addiction.
Unless you're wanting to spend all your waking time in museums! They won't let you drink soda in there. They've even asked me to stow a sippy cup before entering. (Bottles are usually okay though. But probably not if you aren't holding a baby.)
The A&E channel does a tv show called Intervention. Admittedly my Coke is not the kind of coke they are used to dealing with, but you never know! :)
You drinking Diet Coke? And a lot of it? WHAT? You are kidding, right? This makes absolutely no sense to me at all...
I see nothing at all wrong with a DC addiction. If it were Diet Pepsi...then we'd have a problem.
Did the start the day of the funeral at Chilis? I would hate to be the one who got you started.
