    My teen found caffeine

    Well, I think the subject explains a most of it. Since moving in with us (she doesn't belong to any of us, we rescued her from her a-hole father) she's been trying to figure out why we all drink so much coffee. This weekend she found out what happens if she drinks four cups of coffee in an hour.

    She's been bouncing all over the house, offering to do housework and move boxes. It's all very strange. Too bad she doesn't know how to fix cars or I'd have her out there fixing mine that broke this week. Or my roomie's whose also broke this week. Not been a good week for cars here.

    Well, better keep an eye on her. She's trying to bowl with her hamster in it's rolly ball!

    Later days,
    Ken

    Mum drinks coffee. I don't because I'm allergic to it.

    Allergic to coffee?! That's just wrong.

    Well, I guess a mug of green tea will do the trick just as well.

    Only tea I like is lemon and honey. Also have trouble with high levels of caffine (reason why I can't drink normal coke) and lactose intolerant. It's a blast.

    So that's why you drink Diet Coke! I'm going to make it my life ambition to get you high on caffeine and write about it. Hahaha!

    You'll also be able to write about how I didn't let up about my stomach aches to you for days on end. And how I decided to camp out in your bathroom.

    For some reason, large amounts of caffeine do nothing for me. It's odd, really. Guess I have a natural high.

    Reminds me of South Park and the character Tweak(spelling?). Tweak's parents own a coffee chain and he is always a nervous wreck-strung out on caffeine. There was one episode where they all go around to his house a try and get a buzz off it. That killed me. It really did.

    Silvermander, that is funny. Whatever you do, don't give her any chocolate while she has that coffee in her system. You may be scraping her off the walls, ha
