Either you are one of them or you know of one. You drink it religiously like your body depends on it (because it does), or you scold others saying, "Coffee stunts your growth." This life-giving drink is found in a variety of brands, sizes, and better yet, flavors. That's the thing with coffee, you can choose a different flavor every day and be completely happy with your choice. Even when things seem horrible, coffee will always be there to cheer you up. If you're anything like me and continuously need coffee throughout your day, then these 7 confessions will definitely hit home for you.
1. You know your order by heart.
Whether it's a complicated order like a "Venti caramel latte, decaf, with soy, a flavor shot of vanilla, and two shots of peppermint," or just a simple "black coffee." Even if no one can understand what you're saying because you can say it so fast, doesn't mean it's not a great coffee order.
2. Your last thought before bed is thinking about when you can get coffee the next morning.
Don't lie. All the coffee lovers out there have this thought before they go to bed. You want your next coffee as soon as possible and just thinking about having it makes you feel some type of way.
3. Making excuses so you can have just one more coffee.
"I'm tired," or "I didn't get much sleep last night," are excuses that will do. Even the, "My last one didn't do it," or "I can't live without it," will make the cut as great excuses. If you ask me if there should be a limit on cups of coffee per day, I would say never. Ever.
4. The disappointment you get when your coffee is empty.
The moment you take your last sip of coffee, trying to get the tiniest drop out of it, and realizing there's nothing you can do, but sit there in disappointment over the empty cup. The only real solution to this problem is to pour another cup and keep on going.
5. Everyone can tell if you haven't had your coffee for the day.
Even if you don't think you're that different without coffee, you're still not you without coffee. I know we can't all be sunshine and rainbows all the time, but for those of us who need coffee in the morning in order to be a person, we would appreciate it if others wouldn't acknowledge our still waking up stage.
6. You can't feel the coffee "kick in" anymore.
When you first started to drink it, you could feel the caffeine running through you right away, but now that you're an experienced coffee drinker and it takes a couple more cups before you start to feel it. It happens to all of us at one point, but it's never easy.
7. The "small" size has now become a kid-drink to us.
There never seems to be enough coffee in the cup and when it's gone, we keep wanting more. Realistically, a small doesn't work for us anymore as experienced coffee drinkers. You might as well order the "Trenta" from Starbucks because that's the only thing that'll do the job.
Whether you're on the go or staying in for a nice cup of coffee, I can promise that it doesn't get any better than that. If you're trying to be a morning person in any other way besides coffee, let me tell you it does not work. Trust me. In the meantime, enjoy your coffee and don't let anyone tell you different.
