good-bye january and my 24 days without coffee. i'm going to continue to hold out until monday, february 4th. and then... that sweet, sweet nectar of the gods is back in my life.
remind me not to try this again in the winter. bad, bad idea. the convergence of very little (green tea, which has some, but not much caffiene) caffiene and dreary weather = a non-focused, unmotivated mess.
seriously though, let's look at vices here. hmmm... coffee. booze. cute boys. brain-rotting celebrity gossip websites. maybe i'll try to go a week without the celebrity gossip websites, just for shits. yes. starting monday, no more gossip sites. but if j lo has her baby (ies) next week, someone's going to have to update me!
which brings me to... props to KK for giving up alcohol for ALL of january (after the 1st, obv.)!!!
super tuesday is coming up folks. if you've got an absentee ballot, get it in the mail. if not, make sure you go to your polling station on tuesday, february 5th.

why in God's name would you ever give up Coffee in January? Has SF really tweaked your brain my dear? Let me never hear of you doing ridiculous things like that again! ;) heehee. The give up celebrity websites isn't a bad idea though...
It is the carbolic acid in coffee that makes it a negative for athletes; it can cause tension. Although coffee was part of Jordan's pre-game routine per his trainer. And yet to con-contridict, this is when he was playing for the Wizards and was not that good...
wow. a MONTH? you are loco :)
I like the idea though. Maybe I'll try something...for a week. baby steps. It'll be like lent, but without the religious part. how fun.
you can so do it for longer. I've been off coffee for about 10 years now :-) And off caffeine entirely for two (ish - except when flying red-eye or after an all-night. then it's a legitimate need for a stimulant and not just feeding addiction). I'm having a tough time right now giving up my last major eating/drinking vice - I stopped eating refined sugar 2 weeks ago. I slipped on Thursday and had a piece of chocolate mousse cake - "lucky" for me, it made me feel AWFUL (though that might have been the wheat, or dairy, which I'm also off) so I'm not likely to cheat again soon.
