I love coffee.... no questions about that at all.. but I drink way too much and it kept me up for HOURS last night...
I would like to only drink two or three cups a day, but I really enjoy it! I read recently that 'caffeine will be the new cigarette's'.... meaning in 10 or so years there will be all of these cam pains about the 'drug' caffeine and that it harms you, become addicted etc... made me think twice as I was stirring my third cup at 9am...
How do you wean yourself from it??? Cold turkey and try and survive the tremors?? And what do you drink when you go out for coffee??? I hate hot chocolate and a cup of tea has just as much caffeine... diet coke?? Nah.. caffeine.... I know.. a glass of chilled water!!! Now... where is the fun in that!!
Like now.. I am sitting here with a cloudy head from a combination of lack of sleep and that I haven't had a enough coffee to get going yet... when do I break that god dam cycle???
Anyway.... we had the busiest weekend. Most of you would know that Jack works full time and we farm on the weekends. The rain we had was a god sent but it means summer weeds are growing in the paddocks, which is not good!! So Jack was up at a sparrows fart both Sat and Sun to spray before it got to windy!!! And, we had shearers here on Saturday arvo, a 50th and 60th on Saturday night, I took photos for the paper on Saturday as well... very tired by Sunday night!
My food has been a little sucky... not in what I am eating, but not eating enough! Which is just as bad! Will pull my head into gear and plan a little better!
OK.. better go and have another cup of coffee... I WILL cut down... tomorrow....

I'm with you on the caffeine front - and my addiction is highlighted by everyone in Blogland singing the praises of giving it up! Thinking along the lines of smoking, I find that there is a ritual involved and that that is part of being stuck on it, for me anyway. What about using a smaller mug but the same number of cups/day to start with?
How excited were you when it rained??! Tell the truth...did nude dancing take place?
If you know you are drinking too much coffee, it's like dieting, you are the only one who can cut down or stop.... never seen an adult being force fed yet. Sounds like you have been terribly busy! Hope it rains some more for you poor buggers over there.
I don't drink coffee, can;t stand the taste of the stuff but i have battled the diet coke addiction, one month cold turkey no soft drink whatsoever was the ticket. I still like my DC but its not a daily thing now. When I go out for Coffee, I usually get a chai latte which probably has caffienne too but oh so yum. Its sooo hard to find chai lattes over here, starbucks is about the only choice!
