Re: coffee vs tea
In general I don't drink coffee, but two days ago I had a long day.
Up at 8 1st job paperwork 9-11am feeling beat, Vietnamese Coffee on Ice(expresso with condensed milk) with lunch. 2nd job.. labour from 12-3.. then paperwork until 5 then 5-6:30 meeting and discussions on the phone/fax with China (9-10:30am their time) Grab a starbucks grande latte for dinner (no food) then I have a night class at 7:00pm (business Chinese (Mandarin)).. Other student, 50y old businessman, does not show, so I am HU with the teacher and I'm sharp for the 2h30. Home at 10m.. Check my email for replies from China.. 11-12 eat a noodle and try and relax. I fall asleep at 12:30 but then I am awake at 4:00am and I can not fall back to sleep. I get up and review my work for 3 hours until the kids wake up at 7am. By about 2:00pm that day, (no coffee, I am falling asleep at my desk.) I manage to hang on till 3:30pm but then tell my associate who does all the Chinese translations, that I am going.(lucky that I'm the boss) At home i snooze from 4-5, but then I get up for a short meeting at 5:30 which I want to re-schedule, but I make instead... Then family stuff until 8:30pm. I fall alseep at 9pm and do not get up until 7:45am. My normal routine is 1:45-2am sleep... 7:45-8am wake up. I used to do that for weeks when I was playing poker. Moral of the story More than one coffee per day messes me up. |
