Midterms Made Me Do It

Posted by Shannon on March 26, 2008

It’s midterm time here in the lovely, booming metropolis of Wilmore, Kentucky, which means I probably won’t sleep much during a 48-hour span that began yesterday.

The need to be up for long periods of time requires caffeine … lots and lots of caffeine. Which means, as of yesterday, I had my first Diet Dr Pepper since December. Three of them to be exact. Twenty-four ounces of fun. Now, I will admit to having the occasional Diet Coke recently, perhaps for the same reason, but Diet Dr Pepper’s were always my weakness and I feel pretty good about having gone this far without drinking one. After the midterm season, they’ll be chucked aside once again.

We hope.

Until then, the 23 flavors are going to rock and keep me up all night.

Again, we hope.
