Mmph. I had some chai tea earlier, hadn't given any thought that it had caffeine in it. Now I'm awake at 1:40am and I have to be at work at 8am. If I fall asleep now I'll get 5 hours of sleep. I can't fall asleep, I have the anxious jitters that accompany an unexpected dose of caffeine. My eye will undoubtedly start twitching soon.

On days I work, in the morning I consume 6 to 8 cups of coffee with a light breakfast, but I don't drink anything with caffeine after lunch.
Tea is one of those things where you don't immediately associate it with caffeine when you drink it, sodas too. I usually just drink water or milk.

My mistake was in thinking that Chai Tea was made with a different leaf than a Tea leaf. I was wrong, it's made with that and with a blend of other herbs like clove and nutmeg. My mom's tea is like crack. On more than a few occasion it has kept me awake with it's incredibly high sugar and caffeing content. Looking back through my weblog there's a persistant love/hate relationship with caffeing. When I was in Tullahoma I griped about the crack coffee that Waffle House was serving. As an endnote I should say that it made me freaking anxious/paranoid. It was like being crazy. It was crazy.

So, have you kicked the caffeine habit?

Caffeine free for quite sometime now. Alcohol free for almost 1 month.
