It doesn't take much.

Yesterday I hung out with marrog for a bit before her ghost walk, which meant grabbing a couple of drinks in a nice pub, the name of which sadly eludes me.

Anyway, I can't drink sugary things, so X + diet-coke is my staple. Ideally it'd be diet lemonade as I avoid caffeine most of the time, but no pub anywhere sells diet lemonade. So coke it was.

Which meant I slept badly last night.

Which meant that I spent today feeling low in energy and craving sugary things for their energy potential.

Which meant I've eaten too many high-GI things today (although I've managed to avoid actual sugary things).

Which means I now feel rather frazzled.

Bah. Bed soon, where hopefully a decent night's sleep will sort me out.

But first - fifteen minutes of Burnout 4 with Ed!

I find that "diet-" drinks give me headaches because they have even more artificial sweeteners than regular coke.

Fortunately, artificial sweeteners don't bother me at all. It would suck to not be allowed artificial ones or sugar.

Does tonic water have actual sugar? Most bars have that.

"15 minutes" of Burnout NEVER happens. It quickly turns into an hour...


...then 3.

I've taken to drinking lime and soda instead of diet coke, usually works out cheaper too (23p in what used to be the Hogshead in Stirling)
