OK, I never need to try that again! - Page 2

I once took a five-hour energy shot plus a can of Monster...my wife said I was talking like an auctioneer and I remember my head buzzing and rapid eye movements. Time seemed to slow down a little bit.

I only did that because I had a hot load and it needed to be delivered yesterday (literally). I was getting sleepy and the soonest my student could take over was five more hours. That cocktail worked to keep me awake and alert all right but I don't do that anymore, I just get more sleep!

hmmm. I have tried red bull. I can drink more than one with no bad effects. Never tried any of the other ones. If I drink more than one cup of coffee I get shaky and nauseous. I don't drink sodas either.

I'm never going to eat Skyline chili and then a chocolate easter egg. a chocolate butter-pecan easter egg.

oooooo, tummy....hurts....

I am ultra caffeine-sensitive (I have pretty much none at all now).
But you guys have me all tempted to go and get a really strong one tomorrow and see what happens... Then again, I've never really enjoyed the scratchy, shaky high I got from coffee, so perhaps best not.

I am never again going to assume that English sun in April isn't too hot for me to sit out in.
An hour. ONE hour folks!
I'm not burned exactly, but I am warm and pink. Matching my... hair.

I usually have a different solution to this problem.

I've had that feeling in my groin, too. Didn't realize that energy drinks would help that.

What an oddly apropos bit of information... sure enough, google says that taking B vitamins will make your pee bright yellow, because you're just peeing the unused amount right back out again. Minifob is on a regimen of a relatively high amount of B-vitamins--and his pee is still clear as always. Looks like he really does need them.

vitamins will make your pee bright yellow as well.
