Holy crap, that sounds pretty amazing, honestly. ._. I'm going to have to try that next chance I get.

That sounds tasty! I will have to fiddle around with those combinations.

I have been rotating more tea into my daily caffeine intake (instead of coffee), but I still need to get completely off for a while. It is difficult because if I go one day without a cup of something caffeinated I get a massive, almost blinding migraine by the evening. x_x

I know that feeling

From age 7 to about 17 I drank plenty of coffee, every day, around the clock. One day I decided to cut caffeine in-take entirely. Not only did I get those very same headaches, but I experienced increase sensitivity, imbalance of mood, and was even hearing things. O.O

These days I keep it down to one cup a day.

The weird thing is that I usually only drink one cup per day. @-@
Maaaaybe two on a particularly challenging work day. Yet I get slammed if I go without, which seems like it should only happen if I was drinking copious amounts of the stuff. Ah well. At some point I will muster the courage to try again.

That must suck. :[

I guess it could be how one's size and their diet affects how drastically they are affected by chemicals. I guess since I am very tall and drink a lot of fluids, caffeine does not affect me as much. Well, it could also be because tea in of itself has a lot of caffeine. Perhaps tea can help leverage your change in chemistry.

For me I'm typically having one cup a day, and I get wicked headaches if I miss a day. In the summer while working out in this kitchen and around the end of school semesters my intake is insane, but I try to do 1-2 cups a day the rest of the year.

I'll never get over the name MrTwinklehead.

It still makes me smile.

During the week, or rather when I am at school, I average a full pot a day. Thats roughly 60 ounces from my coffee maker, or 1.8ish liters for you metric types. I take it black, so I don't get all weird from too much lactose or sugar or whatever, but I am typically very tired when I get home. I don't typically drink any coffee after work, or on the weekends.

Last October or November, when my life was a blazing wreck, I was probably doing around a pot and a half a day, which would have been 80-90 ounces. This was likely extremely unhealthy.

At the summer camp where I have been working in the kitchen, one of the leaders sucked at his job and now we switched positions for the week. He's now in the kitchen, and I'm counselling Jr. High boys. *Internal screaming*

I finished my week of counselling at Jr. High camp. It was crazy. Tonight the permanent staff for the summer and I lay in a circle and mentioned things that made us mad during the week and then shouted at the top of our lungs about it, sometimes individually and sometimes as a group. It took about an hour. I think I may have lost my voice. It was therapeutic.

Oh wow. Didn't see that when I posted it. Some people can be so boring.

I'm not a figurine person myself, nor did I have any Imperials in my party, but I still like the class design.
