At What Point
Is one drinking too much coffee? (Note: This question is not for those of you who don't like coffee and would always answer "any".)Two cups? Four? Eight?
Also - how many doughnuts are too many?
What if they're just doughnut holes?
Well....I think I answered my own question.
And 8 cups of coffee is definitely too much. As evidenced by the fact that I was unable to attain sleep until well past 2 a.m. I sat up and read To Kill A Mockingbird for the umpteenth time. I had never read it until about 3 years ago (crazy, I know), but now it's one of those that I just pick up and re-read from time to time. This is the first time I noticed that Jem and Scout always seemed to be in trouble.
Anyway, I'm sluggishly trying to study for my Family Law exam tomorrow. In the interest of sleeping tonight, I've cut back to a mere 6 cups.

Coffee -- No more than 2 cups at once, or 4 throughout the day.
Donuts - Just one. Two donuts is like three slices of pizza -- so tempting, but at the end you wish you hadn't gone for the extra one.
Donut holes - Six is too many. Maybe five.
Just sayin'
And this is a little known fact, but donut holes actually negate donuts themselves, so you have to alternate when you eat them. First eat the donut, then a hole. It's like particles and anti-particles coming together and annihilating each other.
but since my exams were over 3 weeks ago (one good thing about the quarter system), I am working on reducing my coffee intake. today's the first day. step 1: moving from espresso drinks to drip coffee. since there's a starbucks on teh first floor of the building i'm working on, chances of success are slim.

So don't feel bad if you fail! =) Plus, I like to think of the milk in my latte/mocha as a buffer to my system. Or at least to my poor stomach.
Mmmmm....mocha...
But it doesn't have a 3 inch thick layer of vanilla flavored high fructose corn syrup at the bottom and then lots of pretty swirly designs of caramel on top.
ho hum.
