Pre Quitting Day 2 - I gave a massage this morning and as she lay on her stomach, I was leaning over her back and failed to stifle this huge yawn that sounded a bit like a gasp. I couldnt lie to her I was totally busted. I just want to say, "My name is Marlene Larson and I'm a Diet Cokaholic" and I can hardly stay awake! [yawn] So 2pm I gave myself one. I think it is totally a con by my body to get me to indulge, but what the hey it is still Fat Tuesday, for tomorrow Ash Wednesday I may suffer for the good of the body.

Anna just asked me if I was going cold turkey and I informed her I didnt think it was advisable. I think my body would go into a case of the "bends" not being able to withstand that kind of extreme atmospheric change. Perhaps I will need to hold firm and fight back when the next "tired con" comes along. Off to buy Fresca, my new placebo.
