The effects of caffeine.

So there is still a slim chance. Even though I’ve given it to God, I still haven’t given up hope. Why? Because some of the things that have been happening don’t make sense without the answer being ‘yes’. They really don’t. We’ll see what happens.

Last Saturday, my husband let me sleep in until 11:30! I really hope the trend continues. You would not believe how exhausted I’ve been lately. Even (and this is not a good thing) on the way to work. Yes, I drive. Bad bad bad. I am so getting a large Crème Brule Latte this morning! (Anyone else think I spend way too much money at Gloria Jeans?)

Did you know, the Sleep section of the BBC website (www.bbc.co.uk) actually recommends caffeine to wake you up? Does caffeine have any negative side effects? I guess it does if you drink too much, but one cup of coffee when you’re feeling tired would probably be fine.

Speaking of caffeine, we had heaps of people (i.e. seven, not including my husband and I) come over last night to play cards, and they brought lots of Coke. I didn’t drink any. I would usually scull it down with the best of them, but last night I drank cordial. And water. I was proud of myself, and also a little freaked out. But mostly proud. :o)
