I'm a cypher, wrapped in an enigma, smothered in secret sauce. Also, my name is Kev and I own this here website.
Yesterday, I made the decision to forgo my usual cup of coffee in the morning. I went coffee-less. I went without coffee.
Why? Well, why does a man usually do the stupid, idiotic things he ultimately regrets? Because he’s a stupid idiot, of course.
What I thought at the time was an inconsequential decision to cut down on my caffeine intake was, in fact, a choice to live the rest of my day in complete and total agony.
Had I remembered the following quote from the great Dave Nelson, my torment could have been avoided:
“I don’t know what coffee does for you, but I’m pretty sure without it your head caves in.”
Preach on, Dave. Preach on.

So…when you developed the headache…did you then drink coffee? Or was it then a matter of “game on, headache?”

I’m pretty sure blood would come out of my eyes if I forewent (is that a word?) my morning coffee. I would not even attempt that without a net. You’re a brave and awesome man, Kev. But then, you knew that.

@Angi: Oh, it was definitely “game on, headache.” Alas, the headache kicked my butt and made me cry like a little girl. Not literally, of course. I’m incapable of crying. True story.
@Jenny: Haha. Thank you. Of course, can you believe that I considered forewenting (?) coffee again today? Around 10:00, thankfully, I came to my senses.

Yes, I remember the “If I could cry, this is where the tears would be…” blog.
