A dream for an insomniac

Hi Internet

I love a movie with that (or similar) title, it's one of Jennifer Aniston's first movies I think, it's brilliant. It's about this girl Frankie, who's raised in a café, devoted to Sinatra and his blue eyes, she drinks coffee all day and then she's surprised she can't sleep, at all.
I drink a lot of Caffeinated drinks, I am, some might say, an addict, I crave coffee/coke/other caffeinated beverages from the moment I wake up and throughout the day, if I do not get a hit in the first 6 hours of the day, I usually get a headache, then I start experiancing mood changes, everything from a slight draught (daft mode) to a case of ole hurricane (crazy) - this is my body telling me I am out of Caffeine and I must get more, - sort of like the fuel light on a car, if in another six hours my mission for fuel (caffeine) is still unsuccessful I start shutting down I will get super sleepy and unable to stay awake - let alone focused - for another five minutes, this also happens with cars, I remember once driving my beloved Opel to a gas station and it started coughing just a few blocks away from the gas station, then it finally shut down about three meters from the pump, and Gummi had to push it up the small hill to the station to get it coffee.
Now visualize me with a caffeine deprivation alone with my kids....yeah I know not a pretty sight! luckily I usally manage to coax someone into getting me my fix before stage shutdown starts ;)

I had a case of caffaine deprivation today, I was going on nine hours without caffeine when my aunt came over with coke and coffee (given she exidentally bought coffee beans and not ground which doesn't quite work for me since I don't have a grinder) and I had my fix, but in my state of caffeine need I - ofcourse - drank way to much, went over the top and now it's 3:30 am and I'm sleepless - once again, and knowing I will be having trouble in the morning waking up *sigh*

I'm heading to bed (again) and see if Mr. Sandman will spare a few specks of his awesome dust on me.

Goodnight
