i should think of the titles first

What's the human limit for caffeine intake in one day? I am looking to get JUST up to that point. I am tired something fierce. Tired like falling asleep at my desk tired. That is bad. Due to the configuration of my cube, I get a lot of foot traffic coming behind me AND facing my monitor. Everyone on his floor has caught me reading blogs, checking CBS sportsline, watching YouTube and being generally unproductive. Actually, I think the dead giveaway that I'm working is if I'm wearing headphones. If I'm not, I may be working, or I may be sitting in my cube listening for footsteps. Because of this predicament, I can distinguish almost everyone on the floor by how they walk. Maybe not perfectly, but I can usually narrow it down to 2 - 3 people. This, while exceedingly cool, is a completely worthless skill - so far as I have determined. Therefore I am grateful to possess it.

So, I am enjoying a bottle of Arizona Diet Green Tea with GINSENG. I made sure I got the bottle with ginseng in all caps because that means it's extra powerful. It is really in all caps and there's a couple of geishas on the bottle. One geisha is playing a shamisen (google is smart), the other looks like she just said, "You go girl!" There's a third geisha, not part of the aforementioned scene, who looks to be making a cellphone call. Oh shit. My phone's ringing.

I totally had a nap at work today too. Completely unintentionally. But if you make me come to work at 7 in the morning when no one else gets in until 8, what's a girl to do with the first hour? I ask you.

One time I tried that ARIZONA Ice Tea with some powerful stuff. I think they called it Health+ or something. It had all of these herbs that you give the old guys that can't handle Viagra. It nealy killed me. I was speeding all over the place and my head felt like it was about to explode.

I got alot of work done that day, tho.

Sounds as if you should have opted for the Green Tea with CAFFEINE. I recognize that it has caffiene in it, but clearly you need the extra powerful stuff.

theLC: That's when I came into work. Unfortunately, there are others here who would see me napping/hear me snoring.

Nukes: HEALTH+, eh? I will be on the look out.

HeyNonnyNonnyOh: 4 grams?! Africola?! So many shocking questions!

OEJ: The extra caffeine would have been ideal, but you know how it is with the health nuts these days.

tiffTiff: Thanks! Your lurking days are over.
