Never before have I been so desperate for coffee. I used to scoff at my parents in the mornings as they dragged their feet across the floor lethargically, destination always the same. The coffee machine was like a glowing beckon to them, leading them home. "Haha! You zombies can drink your coffee and stand around like the living dead. Be jealous of me, for I have my youth!"
My youth doesn't come in handy anymore. Now I'm the zombie, which sucks because I always imagined myself to be the kick-ass survivor who never needed to use the adrenaline shots in L4D2 because I didn't need help being awesome. Now I find myself dragging my feet in the same manner as the folks, grunting in response to anyone talking in my direction, groaning the word "coffee" in repetitions until my thirst has been quenched.
I used to be able to shot gun an energy drink and be cool. It used to be exciting doing shit like that. I am 20-years-old. I'm supposed to be able to do shit like stay up all night without consequence! What the Hell!
hahahaha I completely relate to this entire post! Especially,

Coffee is God's gift to this world so drink up!
ReplyDeleteThe only really great thing about getting older is getting to drink more coffee, with a a reason.
Gulp, gulp, gulp
Ohhhh, how I can relate to this. For the first half of the classes I was teaching today, all I could think about was how badly I needed coffee. Going back to teaching, right after a short Christmas break is REALLY unfair.
