It's the caffeine, baby.
Every planet has its own weird customs. About a year before we met, I spent six weeks on a moon where the principal form of recreation was juggling geese. My hand to God. Baby geese. Goslings. They were juggled.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
It's the caffeine, baby.
Well, um... hooray for drug-induced happiness!

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I'm here. I may go back to sleep, but I'm here.

tommyrot, you must listen to me. What you're experiencing is not genuine. You've been fed a drug. It's simulating bliss. All that you're feeling is really just chemical suggestion.

Now tagless for your comfort.
tommyrot, Cindy should know, caffeine companion that she is.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Yes, I've already taught one class today, and am now having coffee. Still gronk.
(It's Starbucks coffee. I feel bad about this, because on the sidewalk nearby is a guy with a coffee cart who's had that sidewalk spot for about 25 years, and he's got his cart all covered with signs about why we should by coffee from him rather than from Starbucks. And I agree with most of his reasons, but I just really can't stand the taste of his coffee.)

Heh. A man cannot drum up business by villifying the competition alone. Gotta think about the actual product being sold too.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
My red line had no delay. Which is a pleasant surprise, because on your average day, it does not nearly take an exploding transformer to slow down service.
Instead of the State of the Union, I watched the tail end of this past year's ALCS game 3, the one where the final score was 19-8. (It was rerun on cable.) I figured, if I'm gonna suffer, I should suffer through something that is legitimately entertainment, right? Also to refresh my memory, since tonight's rerun is game 4, the one that went till 1:22 am, of which (as a consequence of its timing) I saw only like the first 5 innings.
