We've got the upstairs room.

It's a good day. Plasma went well. I'm reading some crap mystery about an alcoholic lawyer defending the impossible client. It's going to take me a few more donations to get through this one, because there are so many other things to look at.

Have tried Blak now. It tastes like that someone took that pot of coffee that's been sitting in the break room since morning -- you know, the dregs of it -- chilled it, and mixed it half-and-half with the Coke that's half real syrup and half artificial sweetener, and then ran it through the carbonation process again just to make sure that it really was fizzy enough. Judging from the ingredients list, that's about exactly what they did.

I have a Cunning Plan to attempt to duplicate or better the recipe when we're out tonight. This depends on a glass of Coke, an empty glass with plenty of ice, and a pot of coffee. Oh, and all the sugar packets on the table.

Ph34r.

Blak scares me. *hides*

Y'know, the only real improvement *I* want on Coke is a less sugar version. No artificial sweetners. Just less sugar. Unless it's in a can, Coke is typically so sweet I can barely stand it. And it seems to me that a soda should not need to have metallic taste added just to make it drinkable.

So did you work out a better tasting version? I don't know why I'm very very curious about that, but I am. Seeing as my weird drink of choice lately has been a mix of: Tonic water, Lingonberry juice concentrate (from ikea), and pomagranite juice. Bubbly and tangy!

So yeah. Um. Weird drinks for the win!
