Advice for coffee newbie with a complication

I get very little sleep and have overcome this obstacle by drinking a tremendous amount of diet soda. Can't be having that any longer, so I'm trying to get into coffee, but I don't quite know a good kick off point. My work has a coffee machine and it's brewed each morning, but I don't like coffee black, and I'm not quite sure what to put in to make it more enjoyable to drink.

COMPLICATING ISSUE: I have no sense of smell and as such, my sense of taste is INCREDIBLY limited. Coke, Pepsi, and Dr. Pepper all taste identical, wine is either red or white, and I just found out last night that, for me, hot velveeta tastes exactly like blood. So I basically only taste things in terms of how sweet, salty, bitter, and sour they are. I don't like bitter so much. I like sweet. But I also don't want to load up my coffee with sugar. Does anyone know any kind of magic cream/sugar/coffee ratio that would work with someone that has severely limited taste?
