I have a drinking problem.

Sep 03, 2014 | ZacHanson

I am not talking about a problem with alcohol, I am talking about the fact that I have a craving for large iced beverages four to six times a day.  I am talking large like Texas large level of beverages.  When I get a during from say a fast food join, or a gas station and it is 32oz, I think that is a small.  I love to drink!  Mostly I drink iced tea, unsweet.  I like the tea to be very smooth, like water that is tricking you into thinking it is really something else, but the tea is no good to me without ice.  you see the beverage whether water, tea, pop, or other is all just a vehicle for ice. No I don’t have a iron deficiency, but it is possible I have some sot of sensory disorder.

I am glad I said that, but now I am thirsty.

LOL, In Arizona its both... There was something going around facebook that figured out your accent origin based on the vocabulary you use, like soda vs. pop. Apparently AZ is such a mix its that feature alone that identifies a "west coast" accent. It's funny because people that aren't from here (and hardly anyone is) will say I sound midwestern, or southern, or Canadian, or Mexican, depending on their ear! Hahahaa

At least Zac is drinking something healthy in large amounts if it's usually tea. My husband started drinking a lot of pop when he was recovering from being really sick and gained weight. Pop is definitely not the healthest in large amounts.

Everyone loves a nice big drink every now and again, some more than others.

As a southern lady, I find it so odd to drink unsweetened tea.  That's such a foreign concept to me!  Black tea has such a strong sort of bitter taste to it too.  To each there own though I suppose, lol.

He's in the midwest, where it's most commonly called "pop." I use both pop and soda but most frequently say soda.

Hahaha Zac I drink ICE cold beverages YEAR round (have an AZ iced tea next to me, juice box form, that I just put in my freezer so it would get ice cold). I drink iced coffee in -5 degree weather. I *LOVE* all my drinks with extra iced (especially iced tea.. but I have to add SOME sugar too it if it is unsweetened. With lemon). Hahaha it's funny that you love iced cold beverages as much as I do. People will be like "why are you drinking ice cold coke in this snow" lol. #weirdpeople #givemealltheice

there's nothing wrong with that! I'm the same :p my friends call me a camel, because if I am given a "normal" sized beverage, I'm usually done before they are even half way through lol!

I certainly do not have this problem!  My husband HATES the fact that I can’t evenbring myself to finish a full can of soda usually… or I can make it last forhours.  Water is definitely my thing…  and coffee… mmmm love coffee.

Pop (that's what we call it here in Indiana) and I have a love/hate relationship. Lol.

Unsweetened iced tea is the BEST. However, I have been craving pop much more than usual. Diet Coke to be exact.
