The Fuel | Volume I, Issue 6

Let’s get my update on quitting smoking out of the way, right away.  I did smoke yesterday.  Did a lot less of it than I usually do.  10 cigarettes as opposed to over a pack.  I have yet to have a cigarette today, and the goal is to make it longer into the day without having a cigarette and smoke fewer than yesterday.  As long as I meet these goals, I’m on the right track.  Now, what is this fuel I speak of.  I’m sure most of you know.

Coffee

Credit for the subject of this issue goes to Rhiannimated.  I wanted something less boring to write about.  At least I can tell funny stories about coffee in my life.  You see, I don’t drink it.  Never have, really.  I’ve tried to get addicted.  I’ve tried loading it up with milk and sugar, but that does help.  I love the smell, but I can’t really stand the taste.  When I do drink it, I drink it black, because if I’m drinking it, I’m drinking it to be awake…which is the only reason anyone should drink it in my humble opinion.

My sister, Rosanna, she’s addicted to coffee.  It’s impossible to talk to the woman before she’s had her first cup.  She’s either mute or mean until she gets that jolt of caffeinated energy.  I can identify with these feelings I guess.  I feel similarly to cigarettes.  Although, I’m not one to rush to my first cigarette.  It’s the best of the day, that first one, I always like to savor it.

Rhiannimated, I have noticed, has a slightly different approach to coffee.  She drinks it like I drink Pepsi.  I’m not sure if you could consider either of us addicted to caffiene.  I can live without it, and I do go through periods where I don’t drink soda.  One thing I’ve never known Rhiannon to do is rush to the coffee pot in the morning every morning.  There are days – and even weeks – when she does, but it’s not part of her normal routine I’d say.  If it is, I haven’t noticed.

What I have noticed is this blog isn’t really about coffee, but coffee’s roll in my life.  Which is all, I guess, anyone can expect.  Hey, at least I’m sticking to my goal and writing a blog everyday.  I want to be able to see how crazy I was five years from now.  Ah hah!  I think I found tomorrow’s subject.

  You’re right, I don’t drink it every day. Today was a party! I looooove the taste of coffee, especially when I get the perfect balance of cream and sugar, yum yum yum. I just hate how it makes me too jittery and sometimes I get the shakes and have to eat something immediately or I’ll pass out. I wish I didn’t have that reaction.
