Two cream, two sugar (sometimes 3 if the jet fuel is really strong).<BR/><BR/>TrentTrent Deerhornhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07168860122958861291noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9142954469220297503.post-4408297214796069572008-04-27T08:54:00.000-06:002008-04-27T08:54:00.000-06:00Coffee and nicotine gum get me through part of my ...Coffee and nicotine gum get me through part of my day; from the minute I wake up until at least 3 or 4 in the afternoon. Then, I have to lay off the caffeine so I can sleep at night. <BR/>It's been jokingly said for quite a few years that coffee and cigarettes is 'the breakfast of champions' - posters and magazine 'ads' announced this 'fact'. I also saw a poster picturing the 'breakfast of champions' as a pint of beer and a fistful of drugs. <BR/>We think nothing of pouring this kind of jet fuel into our bodies, never considering there may be cumulative effects later on. I know when I've gone off coffee in the past I experience withdrawal - headache and irritability, a groggy, not quite with it feeling, like I'm thinking with a brain buried in mud. After about three days, the headache and irritability are gone and my brain is clear of the mud. That's usually about the time I start thinking how nice it would be to reward myself with a nice cuppa coffee!Gailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17685245937708975802noreply@blogger.com
