I gave up soda for lent recently. It's kind of a cop out because I don't drink all that much soda. I usually have one diet soda with my lunch but then again I guess one soda a day for 40 days does add up.
I remember having a room mate in college who drank a 12 pack of coke a day and pounded Rock Star energy drinks in-between. He had the worst looking teeth I have ever seen. My friend Ivan and I use to say he had wooden George Washington teeth. It didn't help that he also smoked a pack of ciggies a day. Needless to say he came back from the dentist one day and informed us that he had a cavity on every tooth in his mouth. I tried not laugh too much at this news.
I would not let him in my room sometimes when he wanted to come in because he stunk really bad. We told him to shower more. And to use soap on his body. It doesn't count if you just let the water hit you and not scrub. He said he did but we knew better than to trust his definition of a shower. I don't understand people who don't like taking showers. It feels good to get clean but maybe they like stewing in filth better.
He would get really offended and act in-dignified but the thought of him sitting in my chair or on my bed with that stank was unbearable.
I think he finally graduated college like 6 years later and still lives in my friends house.
He has old parents and loved the San Diego Chargers a lot.
Not sure how I got into this story but it this is where my mind has lead me.
Listen to this song. It is my favorite song of the moment and I regret passing on an invitation to see this band a few months back. I didn't know what I was missing.
