Atooshi Kodki!

Between my first and second marriages, I did what many girls in my position do: I backpacked through Japan, Vietnam, and Bhutan. One day while worshipping at the Golden Temple in Kyoto, I was discovered by a commercial director. Long story short, I became the face of "Atooshi Kodki!" The energy drink of today's youth. It was a health drink, chock-full of vitamins, minerals, and 22 grams of nicotine. Anyway, I became a sensation. Everywhere I went, I was mobbed by Japanese people. Fortunately, it was right around the time they invented pepper spray. Years later when they discovered that nicotine was dangerous and replaced it with ephedra and trace amounts baby laxative, they offered me another commercial. But I said no. And that is a decision I have regretted ever since.
