A few minutes ago I realized the one flaw in my Mike & Honey plan to beat back The Sickness was in the way I implemented it. Before the flaw becomes extremely apparent, you need to know the back story.
When I was in Oakville I used to frequent Starbucks a lot. I had the time and the money, not to mention the transportation to get there. It wasn't unusual for me to have three or more grande lattes in my system. This came back to bite me in the ass when I moved downtown. Not only did I not have a Starbucks I really liked, I had to walk to them. I also lacked sufficient time and money to satisfy what used to be an addiction. So Starbucks fell by the wayside when school started.
Suffice to say that after a while that lack of caffeine in my system made it really hard to stay awake for a whole day. I got used to it though, and completely forgot that there was never caffeine in my system. So today in combating The Sickness, the most common way I got Honey into my system was with tea; lots of tea. On top of that I also treated myself to a Vanilla Latte at Starbucks, and fought off a killer headache with some crazy American caffeinated medication Joey gave me.
Then as I was tossing and turning trying to fall asleep this all came back and slapped me in the face. Twice. I expect to be up for at least another hour before I can even think about falling asleep. So if anyone wants to entertain me, I'd love you forever.
