Giving up the drink!

Two months ago I gave up diet soda..... I didn't have any headaches or any other symptoms of withdrawal. I don't notice a change with the exception of my Sonic visits. I now drink water and tea. I'm really wanting a diet soda. Like really, really wanting a diet soda. I pass a Sonic and I get the shakes! I'm ask myself. Self, why did I give up the diet soda? I don't remember why. I feel as if I should give up bottled water due to the excess plastic that is now being disposed. I might hurt somebody if I don't have a diet soda tonight! I can close my eyes and hear the pop of the can. Feel the coolness of the can in my hand. See the fuzzes from the pour.. Lifting the thin rimed glass to my lips... Then BAM I open my eyes again. I swallow hard and try to remember why I gave up diet soda?
