OMG I feel bad bad bad. This might not sound like much, but I am overcaffeinated and it feels awful. I know it doesn't seem like a big deal but I feel really overcaffeinated. You know, twitchy, anxious, nervous, jittery. And I only had one cup of starbucks coffee! There should be a warning on those things. I looked it up online and look at this. Coffee                                      Tall (12 oz.) Grande (16 oz.) Venti® (20 oz.) Regular Drip Coffee             240              320               480 Decaffeinated Drip Coffee      12              16                  20  I dunno. I don't think I want 240(mg) of caffeine in my system. B/c it feels awful! back to half caf. I had no idea there was such a discrepancy. I had decaf tuesday and was fine. Yesterday and today I thought, oh, I need a regular cup, and both times this! Yeah, I hate to admit I made the same mistake twice. But this time I accepted it, talked about it, researched it, so hopefully I won't make it again monday! For sure I'm going to have to have a half a cup tomorrow or I'll get a headache. That always happens. These highly caffeinated coffees get me hooked. You know caffeine is related to cocaine and heroine molecularly? Can't wait till this gets out of my system...no more today even if I crash this afternoon. You'd think I'd get more work done but I deal with people on the phone and I feel not myself...plus I'm pretty much done with this project.

That has happened to me and I could kick myself. It always makes me feel like I am out in front of my body, pulling me along to keep up. Yeah, I drink lots of water to flush it out.

I totally understand. I can\'t even drink much decaf. Regular coffee makes me feel like my chest is going to explode. Just stick to whatever level keeps you feeling okay.
