Drug of choice.

Everyone has their own addiction right?

It is not an exaggeration that I get accused of being a caffeine-addict nearly once every day. This s not true. (Yes, I know that's what a real addict would say but TRUST ME.) I drink coffee rarely when I am not at college. In the summer, I go weeks at a time without it. But there is something comforting about sitting in an oversized armchair or sofa, curled up in a blanket or in a comfy hooded sweatshirt with a hot cup of joe. Some people have comfort foods; mashed potatoes, a pint of Ben & Jerry's, mac n cheese. Well I have a comfort beverage. So sue me.
My next big ticket item that will be on my christmas list next year is an espresso machine. I asked for one this year but decided I wanted a sexy leather jacket instead. (I don't have a place for an espresso machine...) I love to make my own coffee, it's like therapy. For 15 minutes out of my day all I am thinking about is how many scoops of coffee and which flavor creamer I am going to use. I know that I should be careful and monitor the amount of caffeine I actually consume to avoid future problems, but right now that's just not a priority. I don't really drink anything else with caffeine in it anyway; totally not a soda person. And hey, it could be worse. At least I'm not doing heroin.
