Never mind all the other drugs, when I'm freaking out, I need caffeine from beans. Every time I start losing my cool, it's coffee or nothing. I have 2 more hours of work in a 9 hour day before I can meet my friend later & this cappuccino is my only recourse. My coworker suggested checking how much I spend on coffee & I immediately balked. That's not an option for me, I've been forcing myself to coexist with machines before people for years & years.
I wish some friends would find ways to wake me up.
Caffeine works the other way for me.
I'm hyper-sensitive to the stuff.
It amplifies all the emotions.
It does motivate me physically, mentally and creatively though, which is a plus.

When I was doing night security I used to drink a brand of coffee named Rocket Fuel. That stuff was great , it would give you the shakes but made you so hyper vigilant that you never missed a thing with regards to security.

A pity about the poor buggers at the end of your trigger finger though, eh?
