A coffee with my Friday music


I drink too much coffee. And I also go on a lot about drinking too much coffee. I quite often find myself in meetings slightly frantically telling people about the fact that I've already had too much coffee that day.

The trouble is, I'm quite sensitive to caffeine. If I have two standard (two-shot) coffees in a working day (as I often do) I feel really quite rushy and trembly. If I have a coffee after 6pm, I'll lie awake in bed with eyes wide open.

It's not just that I like the taste and the ritual of it, I'm addicted to that feeling you get afterwards of slightly manic competency. About two thirds of the way through that second two-shot coffee, I feel like I can do minor miracles. Unfortunately by the end of that cup, I'm bouncing off the walls like Tigger on speed.

What about you? Are you a coffee drinker?

Love this song.

No such thing as too much coffee! *backflip* *maniacal laugh*

I drink at least two pots per day. I willingly allowed the research stating it's a preventive for a number of things to convince me that 12 or more cups per day make good sense. But I stop swilling at 6PM too. I hate having to get up during the night.
