I’m 27 days Starbucks Free And Not Exactly Lovin’ It

Like the tagline says, I’ve been off the junk for 27 days. That’s 270 dollars saved. Or (somewhat more importantly) 29,700 calories. Shocking, isn’t it?

The other day Derek and I were talking about it, because at least once a week I really badly want to stop and order up my old usual. Derek says I can’t because I’m like an alcoholic. One taste of that Triple Espresso Venti White Mocha and I’m off the wagon and back down in the gutter with the other mermaid junkies.

“I could have just one!” I argued. “I totally could! Like on the weekend or something...as a special treat.”

“No,” Derek said. “You only think you could stop at one. One taste and you’d be right back to your old habits.”

I’d just like to point out that it sucks to have shitty friends who refuse to enable you.
