I’m Caffeine Free!

I have now gone seven days without any coffee. (“Seven days without coffee makes one weak”… is the obvious joke that I will avoid).

Seven days.

I FEEL GREAT.

I have no desire for coffee any more when I wake up. In fact, I have no desire for any coffee at all. It is STRANGE. So, I guess that this will  have a positive (if small) financial effect. We might save $20/ week.

The headaches stopped on day five and I feel like my energy levels are way better. I also have a heightened sense of well-being. This could be purely physiological… although I suspect that I have been set free from a sense of religious guilt attached to the sheer amount of caffeine that I previously digested.

I also feel like I am playing bass better.

I don’t want to get uber-spiritual about this… but I think that God is proud of me. I have definitely been able to reflect on the positive spiritual effects that come when one exercises self-control.

Party on,

matt
