My officemate prefers the pumpkin spice coffee at 7-11.
Well, personally, I kind of want to slay the dragon.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I think Starbucks coffee tastes awful. To be fair, I think most coffee tastes awful.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
Starbucks coffee tastes over-roasted to me, and I generally like a dark roast. My local coop has great coffee, on a self-service, free refills basis. I'm gonna miss them.

I'm a Starbucks girl. There are better coffees out there - Metropolitan, Blue Bottle come to mind - but none that are also convenient on a regular basis. I virtually never get any of the flavored stuff except chai.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Hooray, I don't have diabetes!
Now I just have to do a sleep study. But I'm guessing all the fatigue I've been experiencing is due to anxiety.

That's because it is over-roasted. That's part of how they achieve the consistent Starbucks flavor. Being able to give people the exact same thing every time is a smart business model.
Yay tommyrot!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
They've go that blond roast now, I hear. I did get all fancy one time and try a Clover brewed, um, Kona? A bean from some specific region. I think I asked for something with a lighter roast, too, before we settled on the bean. Not this last gift card but the one before. Perhaps just asking for coffee instead of getting terribly specific was my mistake this time, but the drive-thru did not lend itself to all that.
Go tommyrot! I hope you can find something to help, whatever the cause turns out to be. Non-specific fatigue is such a drag.

I am one of THOSE Seattle people, and will only go to Starbucks if it is the only option
Yes. I generally don't go if I'm in Seattle (granted, this is partly because if I'm walking there, there are about six better coffee shops that are all closer--if they were farther, I might not). But I do go if I'm traveling, if I'm not having breakfast at the hotel, because I know what my options are--it's more for the food than the coffee (at a local place, they might have good stuff, or they might only have sketch pastries)

I read that as "blood" roast and was taken aback.
I did try the new "Oprah Chai". I think it might have crack in it, because I've had it two more times since, and keep craving it.
