I've driven from long beach to Portland and back everyday for the last five days. I usually leave around 5-6 pm and get home around 5-6 am. Needless to say my sleep schedule is all jacked up. I'm ready to just stay home for awhile. Ok all don't with my rant. How is everyone tonight?

No no, Long Beach Washington. It's still a two hour drive each way. Well it's almost time to head home so I'm gonna go grab a Pepsi for the road, fuel up and head for the hills.

Dang, reading your original post it looks like you are making a 12 hour drive every day. I was all like WTH?

Good morning all :tort:
Definitely should have got a coffee this morning! Thought "ah hey I don't need that" ... LIES!!! its not about caffeine, I drink decaf but its just about drinking it and it being yummy... I think since I used to only drink regular my brain thinks i'm getting caffeine... I wonder if one switched out all our *gross* coffee at work for decaf if people would crash or wouldn't even notice... that would be a fun experiment! :cool:

If I was ever given decaf at a café, I'd politely pay with monopoly money...
This is how your experiment would be like:
Employee 1: Ive had 3 cups of this stuff, and it isn't working! :mad:...
Employee 2: I actually sleep at night!
Employee 3: I bring my own coffee.
Oh, and half the employees would have headaches :rolleyes:...

Hahaha I was going to ask how you'd know it was decaf to know to pay with monopoly money but I know there's a slight taste difference (which would be what foiled my experiment lol) I can imagine the looks on the café workers faces after handing them monopoly money :D
I feel like one department specifically (not mentioning any names lol) would be asleep on their desks. I thought about the headache thing though since it happens to my mum... which is actually one of the main reasons I drink decaf, I don't need the caffeine so only get regular when I really need it, I'd rather not get addicted already :rolleyes: I mean we know it'll probably happen eventually, might as well postpone it

Caffeine rush. I only drink coffee when I'm tired...

More reasons for decaf. If I have regular then sit around at my desk all day all the energy comes out when I get home involving screaming/very loud conversations at Nank... I think he wants a new roommate when that happens:oops:
