I Enjoy The Hell Out Of Coffee

I have friends who tell me "coffee is so expensive don't waste your money on it". Well the thing is the coffee I drink if $9.99 for an entire months worth of drinking coffee all afternoon long. How is this a waste of money?

I get a lot of pleasure out of the coffee as well. It's not just the stimulation it gives as that is minimal after many years of drinking it literally ever day and many cups every day. It's the taste.

I am sure most people would say the same thing that enjoy coffee. It's at it's best on the first cup of the day just cooled down enough to not hurt my tong. I admit the other cups are slightly less enjoyable than the first of the day but they still rock.

Yes there is an addiction factor at play here, I am addicted to it and I admit that fully. But there are health benefits to it you can't ignore - so there...

Some people can have anxiety triggered by caffeine. I on the other hand will have an all day anxiety attack if I don't have any. As well some people can't sleep if they drink it in the afternoon and evening like I do. I on the other hand sleep way better if I have some coffee in me. In fact if I skip drinking it for lack of time to make it, I sleep badly.

Here is the admission - I KNOW that it's not the taste that makes it so pleasurable (even though I freaking love the taste). I understand that as a long time drinker of coffee after not having it for over 12 hours my body wants it rather badly and when I get it my brain rewards me with a rush of chemicals that give me that pleasure.

Unlike street drugs and some the doctors give you, you don't need more and more of it to get you threw the day. In fact there are people who are just fine with 1 strong cup in the morning and that is it.

For me it's 40% the actual act of drinking the coffee that gives me joy. It is linked to a great deal of good times in my memory and to the memory of family and friends who are no longer in my life. I like everything about it, even the act of making it brings pleasure to me. So how can the $0.33 a day be NOT WORTH IT?

The best part is people I know that have addictions to other things telling me "I don't want it to control me". LOL like your spending $50 a week on scratch tickets just in case you with that $10,000...

I'm even to the point that I have a coffee cup for any mood. When I am not happy and need a pick up it's the Pusheen cup. When I am feeling sexy it's a cup with something on it I won't say as it's kind of rude. There is the cup with Mom's photo on it. And for most days it's a cup that says "I Enjoy A Good Spanking".

I am sure if I ever hit the lotto I would spend a lot more money on it than I do now, but for now in my poor ass on disability days - I will spend $10 on it... Have a great day and keep smiling.

HOW TO FIX BLOGGER FROM DOUBLE SPACING LINES OF TEXT

Image
When you click on the editor to type text, it changes to "Paragraph" instead of "Normal". This causes there to be a double space between lines. If your trying to do a list, this is a serious piss off. So you have to click where it now says "Paragraph" and set it back to "Normal". I've had it a couple times not stay, and had to select all then set it to Normal again. As well it puts in a leading space (indentation of 1 space) you may want to delete as well, or your list won't look quite right at the top. It used to stay where you put it, but now it just up and changes it to Paragraph for literally no reason - even if you first set it to Normal - you click and POOF it changes.

YEAH THAT'S NOT A SCAM, I'LL EMAIL YOU RIGHT AWAY LOL

Image
 The anatomy of a scam. This is the exact format I've seen several times on other people's videos on YouTube (in the comments). See if you went to my channel the latest video would be at the top of the list and this was on an older one. There is literally an email link in my profile on YouTube and it was not used (even if it was I'd not fall for this crap). They use the words "your family" to make you react emotionally. You have thoughts like "Is someone hurt or in trouble"? This is almost always a way to try and get "money to your family member in need". Or it's a way to get information out of you. Sometimes it's a long lost relative you never freaking heard of leaving you money. There will always be a fee you need to pay for the legal matters to be cleared up and you to get the money. SCAM. It's interesting I've seen so many people reaching out on YouTube to people about "their family" this few months.
