Brad - I remember you getting that when I was in Iraq and telling us about it. Maybe we should go several pages back? Haha. This thread had been around for quite a while now.

Kolby - How did you like that dirty chai?

Haven't had a coffee yet. I had a Green Machine for breakfast to boost my immune. I'm kinda tired of being sick.

Yeah, I loved the Dirty Chai. I think I'd like it better iced, though.

The usual this morning, DD with cream and sugar. For some reason, my job has me a little more irritated and disgruntled than usual... Hump day, half way there.

Yesterday, while driving, I was behind a Dodge Caliber SRT-4. The license plate was MMMPSHH, and his BOV was so damn loud, I could hear it in my car, with just the sunroof cracked, under normal driving... I couldn't help but laugh...

The usual TJ Dark Roast this morning, but ran out of creamer so it's a bit stronger than usual. Oh well... It's still an 18-ounce cup of coffee, and that's all that matters.

Started off with a small cup of drip to get me through my first class, which it didn't; still nodded off about halfway through, so after class, made my way down to the coffee house for a shot in the dark and a vitamin shot, since I'm starting to feel a little less than 100% and need to stay on top of it cuz getting sick is the last thing I need right now lol

Shot in the dark, as of now, is just about finished, probably grab another fill of regular drip on my way out of the coffee shop to go to my next class. Spring break needs to get here already, I am long overdue for a break from life.

Have I ever mentioned my significant abhorrence for chemistry? That stupid subject will be the death of me one way or another. If getting up at 6:45 for the stupid class after staying up til 1:00 working on the homework doesn't, the headache it regularly gives me will >: (

Working on my second 16oz fill of straight black trying to get into a semi awake state after another dose of not getting to bed til 1:00 and thereafter waking up a measly 5 hours n some change later. On the plus side, the vitamin shots seem to be doing me some good, after a week of feeling a tad under the weather, I finally woke up today without a sore-ish throat and slightly stuffy nose so that was nice. Would have been better if I could have woke up feeling as good after sleeping for a solid 10 hours or so though lol

And, I know, I know, a lotta you crazy folk actually enjoy getting up that early and or do it everyday because you enjoy it or have to for work or whatever, but I'm just bitter about it just to be bitter about it lol

What are these vitamin shots you're talking about? I might need to take those. My throat has been hurting for about a week now and the coughs won't go away. I've been taking some cough medicine and lots of Energen-C. I am getting better but I wanna get better now!

I'm on the same page with Chemistry. I've always hated it. I think I pretty much hate anything that relates to science. I guess I'm just not a science kind of guy.

Having my first cup of black coffee right now. The weather seems to be pretty nice.

You're right, I have no idea what I would do with an extra 2 hours of sleep every morning!

The vitamin shots can be found here http://www.liquidhealthcomplete.com/ it's literally everything you need and then some in a 1oz shot of fluid that tastes kinda like liquefied smarties; it has a ridiculous amount of all the B vitamins, of which B12 is a better brain food than caffeine, it makes you alert and focused, where caffeine pretty much just makes you alert but if you have too much of it, forget about focusing haha

The link gives information on what's in it, and I'm pretty sure somewhere on that page is a link to a place to buy it, but I've never bothered to look for it as I just get my supply from the coffee shop I study at, but it comes in a 32oz or 16oz bottle, which, respectively is good for a month or half month supply if taken only 1oz per day as recommended.


As for the chemistry, don't get me wrong, its a fascinating subject and I am a science guy, majoring in physics to be exact, but the actual methods of chemistry just grind my nerves to the breaking point lol
