Jitters

T-t-too much c-c-coffee. I'm shaky. I'm reading a bio of Timothy Leary, and it blows my mind that people can take things like yage and mushrooms. I can't handle caffeine. More than 2 cups and I'm toast.

Dont worry Sme I cant drink coffee like I used to either but I can drink soda pop like its water though. Funny. It must not have as much caffiene or just completely different.

I drink at least 2liters of filtered and boiled water per day, more than .5 of U S gall.

Now see, that's the stuff. No one ever had a nervous breakdown from drinking water, far as I know.

Water isnt bad for a person. But I still hate drinking just plain water. I will dirnk Kool Aide but it has sugar in it. but I see its better than drinking just plain water.

I was going to ask you did R go to the protest then? If so how did it turn out? I havent checked his blog in a while. Well I suppose. Talk later. N.

Richard went to the protest and met a lot of...interesting...people. An AWOL Army guy from the U.S. who has been granted refugee status here (???), the leader of the Canadian Action Party's Alberta chapter, some "Raging Grannies", etc. Pretty wild. I'm kinda glad I didn't go. ;)

Sounds that way. But glad he met some pretty interesting people if nothing else.

I'm with your mom on this one...big ol' wuss! Two cups of coffee is barely even a warmup.

Bonus points for slogging through a bio of Timothy Leary though.

tshsmom said...

Shawn's right! You have to have AT LEAST a pot/morning. ;)

S.M. Elliott said...

Good God, I'd never sleep again. I am a wuss.

We used to have coffee drinking battles at work. Someone would say, 'nobody drinks more coffee than me...' and there would be a race to the constantly brewing pot. It just wouldn't do to let someone get a lead on you.

S.M. Elliott said...

So someone also won the "I pee more than anyone" battle. ;D

Takes 6 for me to get the shakes...

S.M. Elliott said...

Man, 6 cups and I'd probably start hallucinating.

tweetey30 said...

I have to agree with Sme on this one. I have a hard time drinking more than a cup or two myself before my bladder says enough. LOL..

I remember he died in '96 or '97. I was all set to see him in Georgia and he died. He was doing some spoken word thingie in Atlanta. It's too bad, would have loved to see him.

S.M. Elliott said...

Definitely '96. I gotta admit, seeing that guy on film I got very bad vibes even though he was always smiling. Somethin' not quite right with that guy. Then I find out he was a narc who betrayed just about everybody close to him.
