The Bane of My Existence


What you see above is a caffeine molecule. It is this little bastard that is torturing me at the moment, as I am trying to break my reliance on it. 24 drowsy, difficult-to-concentrate hours and a number of 1000mg ibuprofen doses later, I'm right in the thick of it. My wife says that drinking Mt. Dew makes my face look "puffy". This was enough to convince me that I should stop drinking it. I haven't yet grown completely comfortable with my newfound vanity, but enough so that something that has a clear cause/effect still elicits a significant response from me. That, and I think that the caffeine just makes me grumpy. Ugh. Time to go get some more water.
