"Who needs to give her alcohol...

when we can give her a frappucino - it has the same effect on her - and it's cheaper."

How unfortunately true that is. A guy I went to Mexico with said that. I didn't drink much in Mexico - despite him trying to get me to drink a lot - but I did have a frappucino on our way back from Mexico when we stopped in another town at a movie theatre to see Jackass.

I used to be addicted to frappucinos... big-time back when I used to have my car at home... ever since I've come to college I decided to stop drinking coffee altogether. At first it was kind of hard to stop drinking coffee.. I literally went through craving/withdrawals (when that happened I knew that it couldn't be good for me and that it wasn't something I simply "enjoyed" drinking) That's one of the reasons I choose not to drink alcohol - I have an addictive personality. Many things fade from my enjoyment after several months, but sometimes they don't.
Here are some things I wish I could change, but I don't think I do because they're so deeply part of the way I am now:
- lack of sleep
- stress (because my procrastination seems to be getting worse in life)

Things I'm currently addicted to which I'm not very concerned about:
- cranberry juice
- peanut butter on toast
- kettle corn

those are the only main things I can think of.

I really shouldn't even try drinking a frappucino at all. When I had that one the cravings started to come all back to me again, and I had forgot how crazy they make me. I don't know.. I'm naturally a goofy person... but when you give me a frappucino (esp. if I haven't been drinking them for a while).. ooooh my gosh... it's pretty funny. I start doing crazy dancing - even if I'm sitting I'll be doing some sort of techno-move with my arms - I make the stupidest and silliest comments... and the worst part... bad just because it's kind of embarrassing... I'll literally start laughing uncontrollably.. even if there's nothing funny.. I start laughing to the point of tears.

That's why I'm never getting drunk. Lord knows what I'd do if I got drunk? I'm pretty silly without frappucinos.. give me a frappucino and ohhhhmy...

I know this is true because it happened to me all of the time back home. I'd drink a frappucino, and then an hour later I'd be laughing so badly. The day after I went to Mexico I went to the mall with some different friends, and of course I had the craving back for a frappucino... I thought I would have control if I simply put my mind to it, but man, the stupid laughing took over again. Dangit. Even typing about frappucinos makes me crave them.

I vow to stay away from frappucinos.... at least for a little while.
