I have always wondered just what it is about people who have to have coffee first thing in the morning. I like coffee. I have no quarrel with coffee. I just didn’t get why people were so adamant about it.
Until this afternoon.
Starbucks flubbed my order and ended up giving me a Venti Mocha coffee and a Venti Mocha Frappuccino. I drank both of them within a 90-minute period.
Y’all? I’m feeling so good I may never drink anything but coffee ever again. Apparently I just need about 48 oz of coffee and life is really, really good.
I’d love to stay and chat, but I have to burn off this energy. Does anyone else just feel like spontaneously bursting into laughter? THAT’S how good I feel right now.

I’m the type who has the coffee brewing before I even get out of bed. I can’t really do anything without having some first!
Y’all she’s not lying. I talked to her. She was so perky it was SCARY.
LOL! Vodka has that affect on me. Heehee!
(Not that I’ve imbibed tonight. No sirree. Believe me, if I had, you’d know.)
I so love your blog, your so witty! I tried (and tried again) to subscribe to your feed, followed your directions and clicked under your family picture- it brings up your blog in a different window- but doesn’t ask for my e-mail address so I can subscribe. Is it me? Am I not looking in the right place?
thanks- Happy Halloween month!

See?
It is never recommend that you drink large quantities of coffee alone. You should always have a “designated driver” with you, lest you experience an unfortunate episode like my Aunt Gertie did. She drank so much coffee that she laughed maniacally for 2 days and was then “admitted” to floor 4B when she crashed. It wasn’t pretty.
Well caffeine doesn’t make me spontaneously burst into laughter, but it does make it so that I don’t want to slap anyone.
This post inspired me to de-lurk. I LOVE my morning coffee high. For the first hour of the day I feel — no, I KNOW — that I can accomplish anything! And then by noon I crash and soldier on as best as possible, usually with the aid of chocolate.
Yip, I’ve recently discovered the joys of coffee myself. I’ve always enjoyed coffee but now I actually use coffee. I’m addicted! If I don’t have it in the AM by 2pm I’m craving it. Now I understand why my grandparents always have a pot on. It’s so nice to get up in the morning, feeling comatose, and within a half hour feel energized.
I’m with AM. Well that and it goes great with the pastry I’m usually eating.
Glad that you’ve finally joined the “Realm of Understanding” my friend. It’s a great place to be.
You mean … you don’t always feel like spontaneously bursting into laughter?
That’s just weird. hehehehehehehehehehehehe
You have achieved what most only dream about! Golly, I’d do this daily if my Barista (and pocketbook) allowed me to!
All hail better living through caffeine!
Welcome to the dark side, Melanie. After the maniacal laughter often comes the twitching. But don’t worry. That’s just your body letting you know that YOU NEED MORE!
It’s not an addiction at all. It’s coffee appreciation. Yeah. That’s what it is!
Welcome to the dark side. Your life may never be the same….
Girl- you are high!
You haven’t had coffee until you’ve had BladGuyBrew.com coffee! I never drank coffee until I had his, now I love it! I’m giving some away for Shannon’s Fall Bloggy Giveaway thing.
I’m one in the category of needing 48 oz of coffee in the morning.
Who needs meds?!? I got caffeine baby!
A.W.E.S.O.M.E. !! I know just what you are talking about. This summer I started drinking coffee and the buzz was wonderful. I would go over to my sister in law’s and steal her five kids, bring them home with me and then run around the house with them. I also couldn’t stand in place and talk at the same time. I would talk to my SIL and hop. Only now looking back at it do I know why she always would look at me like I was nuts.
Coffee…a perfectly legal addictive stimulant. Huzzah!
