Take the coffeecrew challenge and stop drinking coffee. · Sunday July 16, 2006 by colin newell
As mentioned over on the homepage
I have been working downward (in my consumption habits) toward zero coffee consumption.
I know. I know. The looks I have been getting since I started this adventure. Dude you are the coffee guy. You. Coffee. You are inseparable. No Coffee. No Colin.
Oh well.
Anyway. I would like to experience a coffee free body.
I tried this once before. Suddenly actually. And the results were less than pretty.
Picture me writhing on the floor in agony.
Hallucinations.
Flu-like symptoms.
Purple Spiders crawling down the melting walls of my cage.
And that was day 2.
I lasted about 5 or 6 days before the blinding headaches became
implacable.
That first cup after 7 days away from the bean was like drinking a combination of liquid treacle laced with Afghani heroin.
The relief flowed through my body like a warm tropical rain…
and faster than a morphine epidural.
Caffeine. This stuff is nasty. I am getting off of it (at least in this form) for a couple of monthes.
Don’t worry reader It is not forever.
Join the CoffeeCrew for the Grand Opening...
