mellowtigger | i drank all of the coffee

Too much caffeine actually makes me jittery, and I don't really even like the taste of coffee. I use it, though. Especially on days like today (when I was woken at 5:30am by a car in the alley behind the crack house honking its horn 40 times or more), I need caffeine just to start thinking again at my scheduled work time. Back in my programmer days, I would use cold drinks like Mountain Dew, but it's probably best that I started avoiding those choices.

I just finished using the last of the instant coffee that I bought early in the pandemic, when I first realized that there was no free coffee available like in the office lunchroom at work. I got the larger glass jar of the Nescafe Clasico Dark Roast back in... March? I guess it took me 9 months to finish the jar.

I do like various kinds of tea, and I keep teabags in my desk drawer at work. I seem to use only coffee here at home, though.
