Once upon a time,
there was a girl just out of college
who worked hard at her job
and stayed up all night, many nights,
thusly leaning heavily on her daily caffeine supply.

The girl drank easily 4
(or 5, sometimes mixed with orange juice)
cans a day (and night).
She is (and was!) not totally clueless,
but the girl somehow forgot about the
46.5 grams of sugar that accompanied each
54 life-saving milligrams of caffeine.
She also spent a lot of time stressing about
writing school board stories
and not sleeping very well.
By the time she left her job to go to grad school,
she looked kinda like this.

That year,
the girl started waitressing in a cafe with
3 flights of stairs,
then walking home every day
from the Theater District to the Fenway.
She had nothing against Mountain Dew,
but at the same time discovered that
Boston runs on Dunkin',
and that coffee on ice with cream and sugar
tastes kinda like a soda and is
cold and refreshing like a Dew
with 4 times the caffeine content.
She eventually went to a quarter-portion of the cream and
subbed artificial sweetener for the sugar
and often added espresso on top.
She started drinking it for the coffee taste.
She even started making it for cheap at home.

The girl has probably drank 5 cans of Mountain Dew in the last 12 years.
She's drank approximately 4,000 glasses of iced coffee
in the same timeframe.
And today she looks kinda like this.

Coincidence?
I think not.
