- What are you going to have? - I don't know. I went out with Paul yesterday, and we drank a lot! So I don't feel like a beer today. - Me neither. After Christmas and New Year's, I decided to stop drinking for at least one month! - In that case, I'll have a cola. - I prefer a diet cola because I'm trying to avoid sugar.
