Anyone for Coffee? (no boys allowed)

[Sapphire]

So I was never sure if that was true about coffee, too.

I often drink a cup of coffee right before I go to bed: no trouble whats however with sleeping. It might have to do with the fact that I drink loads of coffee during the day already... I just really like the taste of it Just the normal coffee that is, not too fond of flavoured coffee and definitely not with sugar or milk in it .

And for the record: when I am on holiday and do not drink coffee I do not get shaky or such

So... I really have no idea how this caffeine thing works... When I try to keep awake I just force myself to do something useful and focus - on long car drives energy drinks do come in handy, but you've got to be careful for after a while the kick is done for.

I stopped drinking coffee because i found my body was depending on it too much. When i stopped drinking it i couldnt get over how tired i was and that made me change my sleeping habits. After a few months i felt such a difference and in truth, because i wasnt on a caffiene fueled energy, pushing myself over my physical boundaries and exhaustion, i wasnt getting as sick as often as i had been.
Oddly now i cant drink it even if i wanted to.

Coffee makes me sleepy...

[papayahed]

I don't like the taste of coffee.

Never been much of a coffee fan myself. I'm a Dr. Pepper addict. Occasionally I'll have a beer or some hot tea.

Actually I think I'm going to go get myself a Dr. Pepper right now

How's everyone's day going so far?

[Weisinheimer]

This is an outrage. All this coffee bashing in a thread titled "Anyone for coffee?". *shakes head in disbelief*

I was thinking something similar. But where else are we to go for our random banter? We should have a co-ed thread for just daily chit chat

[Sapphire]

Nah... it says "anyone for coffee" in the title of the thread. Everybody in here is free to say "no thanks, I'd like some... ".

I myself am a big fan of coffee, but I often notice that when I go out with some girls to "talk over coffee" I am the only one to actually drink coffee So maybe we should read the title of this thread rather like an invite to sit down with a drink and have a nice chat

Having said that, I offer you:

after reading that, Sapphire, I think I'll go make a pot of coffee.


I put some family members and other people who we are acquainted with on my ignore list today. Maybe I'm in a bad mood, I don't know. It's getting harder and harder for me to keep my mouth shut when people say really hateful or just stupid things. I've about decided that I only like the people here on lit net.

[Sapphire]

I can not say I ever try to keep my mouth shut when people say hateful things. If they do not hold back, I will not be inclined to do so either - though I would rather say "why" than "well, you yourself *insert insult* ". But keeping quiet, no. Not something I aim for. I can expect that to be a hard thing to do. I guess in my case my face would give me away as much as my mouth when things like that are being said

Sorry to hear your family is giving you a hard time. It might be a bit of a big step to totally ignore them, but what do I know - I have no idea what they said or did. Just happy there is internet to interact with people in a different way

[motherhubbard]

It's actually my husband's family. They don't say hateful things about me to me. It's about everyone else. I can only guess what they say about me It is hard to keep my mouth shut, but opening it would not satisfy me or create a change in them.

[Sapphire]

Ah. That is a nasty situation to get wrapped up in. Especially when you know that opening your mouth will do more harm than good... I can imagine you put yourself into "ignore" modus.

I wish I could have some advice to help you out. I know I do not have such though. So what about another cup of coffee? Ow, and if you feel like ranting about it - do feel free

[motherhubbard]

you're so nice. I'll get that coffee now.

[Sapphire]

You're welcome. I need to run now. Take care and enjoy your coffee

Dunno if I'm allowed back in here after my banishment from the blokes thread

But if I am...

I don't like coffee either, at least, not on it's own. A half-and-half coffee and hot chocolate is delicious, or any kind of beverage that includes coffee, just not on its own. Most of the time I just drink a lot of tea.

And going back to the hair topic, I could never get a lot of hair cut off! I've always had long hair and I'm absurdly attached to it. Last week I got my hair trimmed and my layers touched up and my bangs cut. All in all, no more than an inch and a half was taken off in any one place except my bangs and it feels waayy too short. I have agreat respect for Scher and her 30 cm lost
