I gave up coffee awhile back because it tweaked me.
Tea had enough caffeine for me.
I'm at someone elses' house and I almost fell asleep.
She has some starbucks canned iced coffee.
I am three sips in and I already am worried about the spiders.

Seriously, how do people drink this stuff even semiregularly?
I can barely type!

I like Starbucks Double Shot cans. I've never felt tweaked by caffeine at all. I think I'm immune

I'm halfway through.
Can't hold my hand steady and have an inexplicable urge to update my rolodex.
I did this to make sure I sleep tonight.
I hope this lets up by then.

I used to say that. Then I got a part-time job at Carabou Coffee. Every time a shot wasn't used, I'd drink it. Eight or nine shots in and I was feeling like I could bounce off the walls. Sometimes I didn't sleep since I'd get off work at 10 and have to be up at 6 for my real job. Too much capaine.

Here's a relevant story. A barista I worked with told me about an obnoxious woman that would always come in, order a cappuccino with an extra shot, and then go on and on about how buzzed she was from the caffeine. He got tired of her bs, so he started using decaf espresso to make her drinks, but he'd tell her he put extra shots in. She continued to go on and on about how buzzed she was, while the employees secretly laughed at her. Rolling Eyes
