[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Compassionately intolerant

Timely convo. I have gotten back together with Dr. Pepper, after a seriously flawed breakup. I AM addicted, but more to the bubble than the flavor, I think. So, this is a good reminder of healthier alternatives available. Now, if I could just figure out a way to get caffiene into a clear soda, I might just be golden.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

There used to be a lemon-lime Jolt but I'm not sure if they make it anymore.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Damn it. Panic attack.

I was going to stop and get grocerieis on the way home, but I could dtel that I'm in no state to do anything but sit quietly until I get this under control.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Am I a bad toad for cutting fruit juice half and half with club soda? It's the only "soft drink" I imbibe, other than an occasional ginger ale for tummy upset.

Straight juice is far too sweet. Right now I'm addicted to mango-peach-orange blend and the staple straight cranberry, which, not too sweet. But both need to be cut, either with plain water or plain soda, to be palatable. Is six ounces of club soda a day riddling my bones?

Calm-ma, Hil

Half fruit juice, half club soda is a common beverage in my extended family somtimes referred to as Sparkle Juice or Sprinkle Juice.

Hard to say. What do good toads drink?

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I do a similar thing with diet tonic water, Beverly.

Hil, I hope you feed better soon.

“Not dead yet!”

Hmm... I think I've either got a latent buzz from the Sudafed I took 36 hours ago, or the congestion is making itself known once again. Everything feels really distant, my head is swimming, my ears are buzzing, and I'm nauseous.

I'm also really tired of this now.

they make such a thing? So many yummy things have sugar/sugar-like things, so I have to study the diet options available. It'll probably be the phosphoric acid itself that I'm craving.
