Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Also, if I drank that much tea, I would be peeing non-stop. Tea makes me have to pee a lot more than coffee does.

I have anywhere between five and twenty cups of tea a day.

I do pee a lot, but I've also cultivated a pretty high-volume bladder, because I'm lazy.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

This is cool!

D’espresso by Nemaworkshop

This espresso bar to be located near Grand Central Station in New York was designed by New York studio Nemaworkshop to resemble a library turned on its side.

Called D’espresso, the interior has been rotated 90 degrees so that one wall features herringbone-pattern wooden flooring while the opposite wall will have pendent lights protruding horizontally.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Caffiene/coffee as a treatment for migraines is not exactly unknown. Hell, that's what Excedrin Migraine is. Whether it'll help ita at all is another question (for some people it's a trigger) but it's hardly out there.

That said, it does seem like an early "try this first" attempt, rather than a likely option for someone who has been so through so many attempts at treatment already.

Because books.

I think that might be the source of my headache and nausea.

Sophia, I had a friend who had to cut back on coffee because she drank it all day, and it was really messing with her stomach. I forget what her doctor said, though, in terms of why. But that could be your problem.

hip deep in pie

Coffee is acidic and totally messes with my stomach. I've had to cut back to one or two a week. I am writing this still partially asleep.

ETA: Tea is also acidic and black tea does a number on my tum too.

OK, here's a story with a little schadenfreude....

'I'm too rich to go to jail'

ESTERO, Fla. — A woman is under arrest after getting in a fight in a taxicab at Stoneybrook Country Club early Sunday morning.

The sheriff's office report says deputies arrived on the scene to find Jessica Nicole Hincapie and Anna Lemoine fighting.

According to the report, Hincapie was asked repeatedly to stop but refused.

When deputies placed Hincapie under arrest, she allegedly said, "You are in trouble because I am a New Yorker and my brother is CSI" and "My dad paid cash for my Toyota Corolla and I am too rich to go to jail."

Even as she was being taken to jail, deputies say she continued to tell the deputy he was going to be in serious trouble for arresting her.

Hincapie is charged with disorderly conduct.

Those rich people - always paying cash for their Toyota Corollas....

Coffee gave me migraines, before I cut out. I don't think it was the caffeine though, as I drink plenty of tea and it doesn't seem to have the same effect.

Me too. I've had one cup of coffee since March.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Back when I was heavily doped up I chugged espresso like there was no tomorrow, any time of the day. Just in case it helped. But in those days, nothing could stop me from sleeping, such was the intensity of my drug regimen. I never noticed a distinct difference.

Since one of the best things I can try and do for my migraines is sleep, I don't like to do anything that gets in the way of that.

Gah. I have the strongest tasting toothpaste in the world, and I can still taste coffee. Coffee I like, but distracting nonetheless.
