Do you remember the old saying for Dr. Pep? 10-2-4? It is about an hour until 4 pm here as I'm reading this! Dr. Pep was my favorite sodie. They used to have the best commercials when I was a teenager. I was in love with one of the dancers in them. (not for real, just crush).
I wonder if that's who it was that I liked? It was that I'm a Pepper song, I remember. I'm not supposed to drink carbonated beverages anymore, or sugar, or fake sugar, or ..... anything really fun! It is OK though because I feel really good, but when you said Dr. P; I'm all, oh I want a Dr. Pepper; I love that cherry kind of taste. When I was kid, they told me it was carbonated prune juice. My cousins from your neck of the woods told me that.
It’s a sad, all too familiar story: harsh, distant, alcoholic father, sensitive, shy daughter always seeking his love and approval. Although there were flashes of kindness, most of my dad’s feelings had been buried long before. Even as...

LOL I wondered if I knew you!!I remember liking David Naughton, the "I'm a Pepper, You're a Pepper" guy when I was a kid. He was a cutie!
I've been addicted to Diet Dr. Pepper for ages. It's rather sad, actually. :)
Like your new name, too!

See? No backstory leaves the memoir beautifully open to interpretation. Nicely done. Have a Dr. Pepper on me:-)jl333 says,
Wait...this memoir was all about a Dr. Pepper?! Thanks for the belly ache from laughing so hard!MotorCityMich says,
Yup!Now I'm cracking up too. If I can't be deep, at least I can be obscure. :P
