Drink hell

Aug 15, 2007 19:10

I went to Zero's today to get a sub, and I also got a large drink.  So I took the cup to the drink fountain and looked for sweet tea, but I didn't see it, so I got root beer.  As I was drinking my root beer waiting for my sub, the lady after me came to the fountain with her cup, and she filled it from a pitcher near the fountain that I hadn't noticed.  I assumed it was sweet tea, but right then my sub came up and at the time I was in a hurry.  Not wanting to waste my root beer, I tried to drink it all and then refill the cup with sweet tea, but I only finished about two-thirds of it before I decided I really had to go.  So I filled the rest of the cup from the pitcher.  I took a sip and almost puked.  It was unsweet tea, which mixed with root beer produced a vile concoction.  But I can't stand to waste food or drink, which is why I didn't just dump out the root beer in the first place, so now I have to finish my vile drink.  It sits in my fridge now about a third empty, and I'm surprised I even got that far in just a few hours.  It'll probably take a few more days to finish the whole thing.  I've thought about adding something better to it as I go, but there's the risk that it won't help the taste and I'll just have more to drink.  It's gonna be a rough couple of days.
