too much coffee turns you into a zombie. too little keeps you grounded. get just the right amount though, on the perfect amount of sleep depo, and wallah! - you 're a genius.

does this formula work for anyone else?

i had a proff who claimed his best inspiration came with a case of beer and some records playing in the background.

i could say the same but with hard liquor.

you pretty much described my recipe for feeling like shit. only my recipe comes with a dash of dehydration. i'm suffering right now.

are you hanging over sweethart?
i am on can number 3 of V energy drink, and had two cawfees before lunchtime.
this was because i was planning on drinking heavily tonight, and now i'm planning on being aloooone and i'll be in my lounge all freaking out and shit and i'm like GODDAMN what was i thinking??!!

no, i just stayed up too late and got too little sleep.
why are you freaking out?

i like the sleep depo + too mcuh coffee feeling but id rather not. its kindof like being up for a couple days on meth.

1 1/2 xanax + 3 diet pepsi levels me out pretty lovely.

sugarsugarsugar + taurine.

and i've just been offered another cat.
her name is Geraldine.
do you think i should take her? i worry that i can't afford two cats or that her and Bubble Lady Macbeth Vermont will hate each other.

what do you think?

i would kill for that combo.

cats are pretty low maintenance. i say yes. a cat in need of a home deserves a home. geraldine and bubble lady will get along in time.

couldn't we all?

no, it makes droids out of most people. except for the hardest of drinkers. to them, alcoholism is a regular filter for reality. like a snorkel. haha. whoa, nelly. i never even made it to the gateway drugs. chemicals freak me out generally. diet pepsi tastes like shit though. literally. the aftertaste tastes like baby diapers smell. Roxtar?

i'm like william s borroughs with a bottle of jager.

i'd say tequila but that makes me like jenna jameson.

maybe you should start lugging your typewriter to the bars. it could be your new profession even. the beatniks got it all mistaken for the coffee bars.
hmm.. i don't think i'mgoing to touch that one

Been on that high since 5am today. Definitely magic. I'll be dead by 5pm but as long as I make it through the day. The scary thing is that now on the slightest sign of pain I've been taking presc painkillers. I never ever sleep/dream so nicely.

danger will robinson. danger!

Yeah, I figure it won't be a fruitful longterm activity.

coffee and cake does it for me, gotta have the sugar

i think david lynch said he wrote his films on coffee+sugar highs

small amounts of alcohol with much caffiene makes you genius for a short while, and hangovers also have a unique way of rewiring your brain

Coffee. I don't know. I paid three dollars a gallon for gas the other day. Shocking. Until I drove down to the coffee shop and paid three and a quarter for a tall mocha. Then I decided I'm going to start riding my bike and drinking tea. We'll see if genius follows.

have you had/do you like, coffee cake? haha. i didn't look at it that way. but you're right. if i take the bus in the mornings i can sleep an extra hour too. then i can usually downsize my 'vente' to a 'tall'. twice the savings!

why not make your own coffee? its pennies a cup damn it! i make it fancy by buying the yellow and red can (lemme go check the brand = cafe bustelo) and by using the coffee mate toffee nut (they have lots of flavors if you think toffee nut is pukey)

i like tea thats much more expensive than coffee. republic pomegranate tea

public transportation sucks here in KC, but in houston i used it alot. if i move to san fran area, i want WANT to ride bart so i can get dedicated knitting hours.
