Who just ran out of kleenex at her office?
I don't care if it is an orgy of death, there's still such a thing as a napkin.

I wish someone had gotten some pictures of their glazed, uncaffeinated stares.
I was down in Au Bon Pain a little bit ago, and I was trying to decide between yogurt and oatmeal, and forcing myself not to get a ham & cheese croissant, because I was trying to be good. And since I hadn't had my coffee yet, when the manager asked if he could help me, all I could get out for a little while was, "Hnnrr?"

Starbucks employee: "A PIPE BURST!"
uncaffeinated customer: "A what what?"
Heh. This was Tom and myself at the brunch place on Sunday when we arrived to meet Frank.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
This is why I have to have coffee and breakfast at home -- if I don't, I am basically incapable of getting it Out In The World. "Can I help you?" "Yes."

Yeah, that really is prime territory for all kinds of Ben is Glory? exchanges right there.

My problem is that I would have to get up even earlier in order to have coffee and breakfast at home, and that's just not on. If I got less sleep, I wouldn't be capable of English or able to comprehend clocks, and that sort of thing doesn't wear off for hours no matter how many cups of coffee I pour down my throat.
Although now that I don't have to drive in the morning sans coffee, the world is a safer place.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Way to trash your reputation. No doubt rehab is next. [link]
Huh. You've got to be intelligent and pretty driven to be an astronaut. And this woman is now throwing that all away....

There's a Dunkin Donuts in a CTA train station I was at yesterday. The station is unheated, so the water pipe had frozen, leading to no coffee. However, I didn't need to be caffeinated to immediately understand that.
Maybe it helped that I took several mini-naps while waiting for my Dr. appointments....

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
I've pretty much given up coffee. The only caffeine I get is tea, and I don't have that on any regular basis (every other day or so). On Fridays I'll have some form of coffee some of time, so that I get a little extra zing to start the weekend, and when I'm absolutely gronked beyond the point of functioning on a Monday I'll have coffee then too, but mostly I'm off the stuff. I've definitely noticed a slight decrease in visits from the insomnia fairy.
