flirting with the monkey

[adrienmundi]

I had a cup of coffee this morning as opposed to my usual tea, and damn it, I can feel the difference. I'm more relaxed, more engaged, am talking more in my natural range, and find things generally better. Sure, it's a nice day, and fairyhead is back in town, but I've noted this before, and it seems to be the coffee. I don't like feeling like the easiest way to be like this is due to an external chemical, particularly one with which I've only recently managed to come to grips with my lifelong addiction. I don't want to be a junkie, damn it.
