Drinking coffee like I do drugs
Coffee. When I'm not doing drugs I'm drinking coffee like I do drugs: I overdo it. I give myself anxiety attacks and insomnia, and I never learn my lesson.
I like jet-black French pressed Peets or Lavazza, the top-shelf shit. I used to be a beer and weed snob, but without beer and weed, I’m a coffee snob. In a pinch, I can deal with instant Cafe Bustillo, which I’ve been overdoing it with lately.
I need it as soon as I open my eyes in the morning because my head is banging. I went to a doctor for migraines one time, and he told me it was caffeine withdrawal. That's how bad I am with coffee.
I have a 3 pm stop coffee rule to keep me from being up all night but I never stick to it. I just had a cup at 5:30…hey it's Friday, right?. I have all of the energy I couldn't muster up all day (I couldn't sleep last night, I wonder why).
I would never create anything without coffee, it gives me faith in my abilities. When it wears off I lose faith so I just drink more. I guess I'm a simple man: black coffee, good music, and Newport 100s and I can live.
