I think it was my 2nd week or so.

The envelope had my name on it as the last recipient…  
Thought you would have caught it 😛

We do need to talk about your TPS report as you  
forgot to fill it out for me.

How often do you coffee drinkers shit on any given day?

I’ll take 3 sips of coffee and have to rip a fatty immediately.

That’s a lot of coffee! I drink 1 cup of Iced Coffee a day at most and I’m usually pretty wired. I can’t imagine drinking 8.

So it’s been over a week without a drop of caffein. I still get a slight headache in the morning, but it’s not bad and only lasts like half an hour. I had a constant headache for about the first 3 days or so. The groggy feeling only lasted about 2 days.

Here’s the kicker: I feel a lot better. I have a ton more energy now. :shrug: Any time I feel groggy, when I used to reach for another cup, I just yawn and stretch and grab a glass of water and within a few minutes I feel fine.

I’d highly recommend quitting to any other caffein junkies.

I’m on and off with it. Throughout the summer I drank quite a bit, but I know what you’re talking about when you say you feel better.

I already quit smoking. one cup in the morning, an iced coffee after lunch is not a vice I’m willing to give up yet.

Yeah that’s not bad. I’m sure a cup or two a day is fine, but I’m just not going to touch the stuff because I’m not generally one to do that whole “moderation” thing well.

Do you mean one 8 oz cup, or one 24 oz. cup?

Drinking out or large cups is the easiest way to deny any problem 🙂

How about a boot? Is that still denial or is that beyond denial and back into embracement?

Nice avatar.
