I swear I'm on my 3rd pot of coffee today. And its only 5PM. I'm so tired but coffee has become the only lifeblood I have right now. Without it I turn into some evil witch or so I've been told.
They need to make oreo flavored coffee.

Be careful if you decide to quit. Screaming headaches!

(103,805 posts)I started drinking a second 18oz mug.
I stopped drinking a whole urn, from my Melita, every morning but somewhere in my late 40s I slowed to one mug before 10am or I would wake up at 2am and not be able to get back to sleep until 20 minutes before I had to get up for work. It sucked so I was willing to make the change.
But now that I'm retired and it doesn't matter that I get up for a couple hours in the middle of the night, I have decided that it also doesn't matter if I drink another mug of coffee. By then I am also ready to add food to the mix and that makes for a very pleasant, if long, morning. My coffee is my morning ritual and I am an absolute snob about the coffee I drink (fair trade only) and I treat myself to the best thing of the day right after I get up. After that, I can face nearly anything the world throws at me.
I use a little sweetener, honey or-? and 1/2 & 1/2.
