The canned pop is what I take to work, 2 a day and that way I can limit my soda intake during the work day. One for the morning caffeine hit (I don't drink coffee) and one for lunch. Once the soda runs out I drink water unless I'm really, really dragging and then I might get a third Coke near the end of the day. We have a fridge in our lounge that is stocked as well and we can buy a drink from there for 30 cents a can but if I find it cheaper or the same price in the store I just buy it there and bring it from home.

...
I'm in the no coffee camp, also. If I ever drink it, it is because there is no alternative source of caffine. The number of times I drink coffee a year is less than the fingers of both my hands. I do like tea, though I often make other people cringe when I drink it strong and neat. As for milk, I also cannot stomach it straight; it has to be a part of some other element...

Regarding the soda, I quite literally live on Coke and really can no longer function without at least a can or two a day, although my consumption is rather greater than two, usually. I worked at a compnay where there was a fridge stocked with sodas available to the staff for free. I would go to the fridge in the morning, take out three or four cans of Coke, take them to my desk, and be set for at least until lunch. My consumption of Coke became a bit of a legend; whenever my boss, the CFO, had to tell me some bad news about a project gone bad or some new, last minute project, he would come by my desk and plop a six-pack of Coke down as a signal I wasn't going to like the news. I am known to be lenient to those bearing tributes of Coke...

I very happy for you the moving process has progessed with minimum problems. Did the return of you old apartment keys finally end alright?...
