[i]apparently[/i] coffee is indeed my number one addiction after all

I spent a few days in jail recently here (enough to clean my system out of whatever bullshit addictions I had been clinging on to anyway) and like a jackass - the first thing I do is head on down to the nearest gas station and spend my last coupla bucks ona small cupa coffee and a black-n-mild
the cigar, or course, tasted like pure fucken poison going down...but the coffee
so I get home and (like an idiot) I roll myself about a pack's worth of cigarettes, and then proceed to smoke em all in about six hours or so / but my mind kept drifting back to my coffee (which, if I'm not mistaken, I only had another cup or two at that particular time) and then, I of course, make this big spiel about how I'm going to sleep for the next eighteen hours or so, but not six hours later - my ass is up fucken jonesin again...so I roll over in bed, smoke a cigarette real quick, and then tossed an turned for about an hour or two before I finally decided to throw in the towel an get up for the day
and after my second cup of coffee - I'm ready to lay back down again
so I decided to run an experiment and only smoke when I absolutely needed a nicotine fix (as opposed to taking one in every 15 minutes or so out of sheer boredom alone) but I allowed myself to drink deep of my magical elixir of life instead...and as it turned out - my cup flowith over / whilst the caner stick took the burner back
and I slept for just barely three hours last night
I kinda suspected that coffee has always been numeral uno in my book, but I had always assumed that that was just because I loved the taste, and that my only real addiction was those damned cigarettes I could never quick seem to shake (albeit, I'll admit, I never really did get all too gung-ho about giving up completely) but now I see that my body craved the caffeine even more so then the nicotine
and you know what...I don't even care

i wouldnt be able to get addicted to coffee or ciggarettes becuase have no appeal to the taste of coffee or the effects of ciggarettes(tried once or twice) and to me coffee just tastes nasty. rather have kick energy drink if i wanted sum caffeine.

For a few years the first thing I did when I got out of bed was drink a big mug of coffee, every morning. Then I noticed that when coffee wasn't available, like on vacation sometimes, I was getting a little cranky around 11 am -until I got some caffeine-. Being a student this was the way to go though. Next I decided to see what happened if I stopped drinking coffee (this was the moment I started working after graduating). I still woke up but the first days were a little harder. After a few days I didn't even miss it anymore. Maybe because I didn't used to drink that much.
Now I only drink when I'm feeling tired during the day sometimes, and I like it better that way.

I used to drink it every morning also, but have been tapering back lately.
Some days I can even go 'till lunch!

The coffee machine at my night job is the worst coffee ever, but I've been drinking it for so many years that I have a strange nostalgia for it.
But I can only drink the black.
English Toffee Cappuccino sounds horrific.

The moment I wake up, the first thing I do is boil the kettle and make myself a warm cup of coffee. Until that moment, I cant seem to function and care about anything else.
Caffeine is one hell of a drug!
