You will all be pleased to know, that I have now had coffee!

I pushed myself through the morning break with the promise that I'd have coffee at lunch. That was absolute torture. I was irritable, I was headachey, I was hyper-aware of the smallest noises...

Everything that could have gotten on my nerves, did.

I'm still headachey, I'm still a little irritable, but I do feel better.

I think I have a problem with caffeine.

You are a braver person than me!

I once tried cutting back to two cups a day for Lent. By mid-afternoon I was a zombie, and after somehow struggling through supervisions, I had to go home and collapse in an ungainly pile. Then I changed it to 3 cups.

Think I'm getting worse. The other day, after a couple of back-to-back morning seminars, it was all I could do to stagger to the bar and somehow stumble out "doublefairtradeespressoplease", when what I actually wanted to say was "GIVE ME COFFEE OR GIVE ME DEATH!"

Good luck with the whole cutting back thing!

GIVE ME COFFEE OR GIVE ME DEATH - now that would make a fantabulous t-shirt slogan!

*grin*

Depending on how the rest of the week goes I think I should be down to three cups a day by this time next week. Of course, that's three large cups of triple shot Americano...

Ooh yes, I will have to get one of those made for me. Then all I'll need to do is go to the bar and point at it.

Three triple-shot Americanos... hmm, yes that would probably still be a slight cutback for me most days.

Don't worry about it.

If I was female and Scottish, I'd be irritable too.

BTW got three chapters of Daddy Dearest for ya next time we're on-line at the same time.

Feel better now?

*slap*

And yay for Daddy Dearest! Hopefully I'll be online tonight, it might depend on how quickly this headache clears up. If it clears up...

Now the slap, where was it directed? Because it really depends...

Grins.

It was a clout round the back of the head.

*grin*

Sho, shakes his head in dismay.

You remind me of a song:-

"If you don't know me by now, you will never know me."

You should know that my mind would have to get out of the sewer to reach the gutter.
