giving up coffee
i can drink a pot of coffee easily. no sweat. i love the color, the smell, the "social" aspect of going to coffee shops and hanging out idly. i love that shit.
but what i havent been loving is the jittery sensation and irritation i've been feeling after ONE cup. one!! it's ridiculous. i drank a cup the other day and started becoming really irritated and decided to forget it.
my coffee maker hasnt been percolating for 2 days now. that's a record around these parts. trust.
for someone such as i to go cold turkey is a big deal. for example: i go through a pound of coffee A WEEK. ch has maybe 2 cups of it, but the rest is me. the other week i went to costco and bought a BIGASS bag of beans and they're DONE. i was just in costco two weeks ago. i shit you not. that aint right.
i was out shopping at nutters, originally looking for oil of oregano, and found a bunch of tea. i'm a sucker sometimes because i ended up buying the complexion tea with roobois blends. i've been drinking it in the afternoons and i really actually enjoy it. it's caffiene free and has a bunch of other goodies in it, so it cant hurt...and the more water i'm consuming, the better, right?
that's not to say that i'm not missing coffee. i am not necessarily cutting it cold turkey because i think i will still hit a starbucks and drink a fat free latte, but it wont be a daily occurance. coffee, from now on, will be a treat. i hope. :)
i'm giving it up for now. AHHHH! so many changes all at once...hard to process at times.
