Feb. 6th, 2015 10:31 amThe State of the Me
I have been working to cut my caffeine levels, to try to cut down on the amount of soaring and crashing I do, while not losing the dopamine boosting benefits. What I've been trying for the past two days is for every caffeine drink I have during the day, I drink a glass of water first... so I'm drinking more water, and less caffeine. It worked out okay yesterday. Today has me questioning the wisdom of applying this policy so literally in the morning.
The Daily Report
I did not get to my planned post about my new story yesterday. Today's going to be a messy, complicated day, and I'm already slow to get rolling, so I don't know if it's going to happen today, either.
In fact, I started this status post at 10 and it's now 12, so I'm just going to call it a dead day. I'll fiddle around with stuff, and still post a flash fiction later, but no goals and no expectations. Then I've got the weekend to adjust to new caffeination levels.
