Signs of the Apocalypse

It's been a weird month, to say the least. But I'm afraid, in light of recent events, that something may be askew.

  • I tried to stop drinking Diet Coke. It didn't work, but I tried it anyway.
  • Not one, but two black cats ran in front of my car yesterday.
  • The snow fell, in feet.
  • Then the water came, also in feet.
  • I gave McRae a mohawk. It was a haircut gone terribly wrong, but we're working with it.
  • I passed up a bowl of ice cream.

and, worst of all

  • I joined Facebook.

Is there any hope?

Okay, do not freak out.

I, too, am cursed with the DC addiction.

I OWN 2 black cats.

I am currently snowed in my house. Literally.

My 6 month old baby girl sports a mohawk.

I joined Facebook recently, despite my better judgement, and have been enjoying it immensely.

Umm Diet Coke, wonder if I can talk hubby into getting me some.

Facebook is kind of fun if you don't get into all those little games where you have to send things to your friends.

I've tried to give up black cats and Diet Coke too! No solution to the cats, but on the Diet Coke, I found that taking Diet Kola Capusles and drinking soda water helped me end the Coke addiction. See dietkola.com for more. Good Luck. Judit

HAHAHAHAHAHAH...You are not addicted to FB and DC!!! I'm laughing with you..really.

It's okay I'm addicted to Guitar Hero and FB. Go figure.

Why on earth would you try to give up on Diet Coke? That is enough to send the entire world spinning on a different axis around my house. Do you think there is a support group for us?

I swear that giving up Diet Coke (or in my case, Coke Zero) is harder than quitting actual cocaine. Seriously, why is that stuff so damn addictive?!!

Well since you're on FB, ya might as well look me up. (by the way, I'm there pretty much 24/7, so get ready for the addiction....it'll suck ya in, I swear!)

PS My last name is Reeves.

I've been off the Diet Coke for 6 weeks now. My replacement drink is Crystal Geyser sparkling water with lemon.

If anyone going through the Diet Coke DT's is experiencing a caffeine withdrawal head ache, the cure is Excedrin. It has caffeine. The trick though is to ween yourself off slowly - over the course of a couple days or a week.
