Just before crashing last night I chugged a can of Diet Ginger Lime Coke. I fell asleep easily but the chemicals and the toxins flooded my system, and within an hour I was dreaming about being near a nuclear explosion site somewhere in the desert but without goggles or a foxhole or any way to protect myself, and the heat blast and torrential winds and the blinding white light were just awful. And then I woke up at 1:30 am with this feeling of some kind of lime amphetamine in my bloodstream. I tried to sleep again but I couldn’t get to the bottom of the pond. I kept waking up and dropping off, waking up and dropping off. And all because a single can of effing Diet Coke…thank you!
