Coffee bad...bad bad bad...

[Mermaid Lily_Pad]

So, I never drink coffee, but I have a job interview today and I didn't sleep well last night so I thought I could use a pick me up. I got Dunkin Donuts and was just sitting on the couch reading through the mernetwork posts and out of the corner of my eye I see what looks like a child standing by my stairs and since both kids are at school I nearly have a friggin heart attack. It turns out, it's my daughters mermaid towel thrown over the end of the stairs banister. I still feel like my heart wants to climb out of my mouth. Geez. No more coffee. LOL

I drink coffee until my heart murmur kicks in - Then I switch to beer ;)

[Mermaid Lily_Pad]

LOL Sounds like a good plan. Woah am I shaky.

As soon as I read this, it reminded me of this scene from Trainspotting...

I drink way too much coffee. I take my thermos with me to school and when I get home around 6, I make another cup. I have problems.

[PearlieMae]

Another CUP? When I get home, I make another POT!

[Merman_Shawn]

I'm one of those people that NEEDS coffee in the morning, but if I drink it in the evening, I'm up all night.

you probably got too light of a roast. Next time skip the dunkin, go to an actual coffee shop and get the darkest roast you can. There is less caffeine in a darker roast than a light roast, the longer the coffee is roasted the more caffeine is burned off

Oh gosh. A whole other pot? I'd be jumping off the walls! :O_o:

I used to drink the equivalent of around 20 cups of coffee a day. When I stopped drinking coffee I went through withdrawals for a couple days (headaches ect....)

I now only drink coffee when I am over at a friends house

[Mermaid Jaffa]

Meh!

When I was at uni, I'd make myself a thick coffee sludge with 6 teaspoons of coffee and 4 sugars, into those small disposable foam cups. And chug it down whilst I did painting or drawing... I was at art school then.

I can't drink coffee or any type of energy drink. Even if I only drink it in the morning, I cannot sleep at night and makes my heart beat irregular, so it's not fun at all.

:: shudders :: im extremely caffeine sensitive, just a sip from a regular can of soda makes me hyper, anything more than that and I'm literally vibrating and it feels like my heart will explode. I'll stick to water.

I miss coffee! My husband is allergic, so I can't have it in the house or when we're out together. I rarely get to indulge these days. :/ There's no coffee shop in my village, either.

[CheshireKat]

My husband is deathly allergic to cinnamon, and my sister-in-law who lives with us is allergic to cloves. :( no apple cider or Apple pie for me...

If I don't have caffeine in the morning, I get awful headaches. But I don't subsist solely on it in the mornings. Caffeine doesn't affect me, energy wise. I can have a cup right before bed and go right to sleep. Same with red bull. BUT, I have found that I get more housework done if I drink a red bull.
Also, I like my coffee strong. Like it could grab your eyebrows and shake your face strong, with lots of sugar and cream.

[Mermaid Lily_Pad]

LOL Pearlie.

20 cups? Pretty sure that would kill me.

Turns out my blood sugar was high the entire day from it. I am hypoglycemic, soooo no more Dunkin Donuts for me. *pouty face*

A quick video about coffee by Matthew Santoro. Learned a few cool thing.

Everyone who loves coffee is welcome to come hang out with my any time. I live in Seattle. We have amazing coffee shops coming out of our ears around here.

That was the old days... I can't drink coffee now, its make me feel very nauseous!

[Fun123joker]

man i grew up with coffee. ledgend says that cafe con leche was fed to me in a bottle insted of milk. im a big latte fan. not much of mocha but i can still drink it. usally i get it from coffee shops. i use to make coffee and have aton of mugs every day but
1) the coffee i made was always watery
2) i was in middle school so the coffee messed up my brain chemestry and gave me depression. i was lucky that it was only for a short time.

tbh i think im addicted. i told my gym teacher and he said that the headaces ive gotten were from withdraw.

caffine is a drug after all

[Winged Mermaid]

I feel you, I can't even take midol or exedrin cause the amount of caffeine in it makes me jittery, anxious, heart beating hard.. yikes! It's probably for the best I can't have any caffeine anymore (stupid illness related stuffs), even though I'm narcoleptic and caffeine would be amaaazing :P But my body can no longer handle it whatsoever. Sadness.
