So I just made my coworkers give me a rundown of what guys they thing are attractive here. It was hilarious, because I don't really know any of them, so I was just watching them agree or disagree. Also a huge relief was them saying that they would have thought this one guy was gay, because I totally did, and then wondered if I should feel bad about that for some reason. I mean, at least I wasn't reading stuff that other people weren't....
Angel: I appreciate you guys looking out for Connor all summer. It's just—he's confused. He needs time. That's all. Fred: Right. Time, and some corporal punishment with a large heavy mallet. Not that I'm bitter.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Hmmph. I just remembered sleep doc also told me to drink a cup of coffee every morning.
I hope this is transitional, because that doesn't sound like she's fixing shit. Oh, and I DON'T LIKE COFFEE.

Assuming it's about caffeine, they have pills for that.

Or strong tea, the caffeine that built the Empire

Well, I'm knocking back a cup of Blue Mountain this morning. But it's definitely not an every day thing. I'd definitely rather be filling my stomach with juice at this point.
I just can't divorce myself from the feeling that dosing myself with caffeine in the morning is because something didn't go right in the night (oh, say, like last night). She says to go to bed when I get tired. Which is more than 4 hours after the pills, and it's not like I'm sleepy. So it took me at least 2 more hours after that to fall asleep. And I woke up bunches, and stayed up bunches.
Yeah, coffee is probably recommended, but I'd rather an Ambien-faulty night of sleep and a sometimes cup of green tea, thanks.

Well, it would take two or three cups of strong tea to make up one cup of coffee, so that's even more "healthy" liquid I'm not drinking.

Because books.
I can't even imagine my morning without a couple mugs of strong black tea. Or, say, a whole pot.
Recommending a cup of coffee has to be one of the strangest things I've heard a doctor "prescribe".

Not to mention I thought I was contributing to good sleep hygiene by limiting myself to no more than one cup of tea (usually green) and always before lunch on a school night.

I am increasing skeptical of this doctor, for the record.

See, I drink tea all day and all evening. Every day. Sometimes I wonder if the caffeine even affects me anymore, or if it's just psychological.
But I don't like coffee, and I got sick of soda, and like Plei, I really don't like water, so ... tea it is.
