#er... yesterday

I’ve always said I have some weird tolerance for caffeine. I’m not a coffee drinker but I can drink Diet Cokes all day and sleep like a baby. It doesn’t give me a jittery feeling, I don’t feel like I have more energy or get-up-and-go, nothing, nathan, nada. 

The other day, however, I overheard something somewhere that caffeine doesn’t actually give you energy; it blocks the signals that tell your brain that it’s tired. That makes sense. Because I had vodkas and Red Bull years ago and was awake for about 24 hours. I had a Booster Juice this afternoon/evening with an energy booster and, although I went to bed at midnight, I’ve been awake and twiddling my thumbs since 2am.
