Asked for a Diet Coke, the person was getting the drink and asked me what I wanted and I blocked on "diet" so instead just said "coke is fine"... It sucks that a speech impediment can effect your life in these sorts of ways. I feel like such a bitch when this happens. I especially hate when this happens with someone who doesn't know I have a block (I'm great at hiding it most of the time).
