Imma wake cause birbs. Bird loud in the morn.

Must hunt bean broth.

@Helical_Code thank you! Found some and am now 2/3 of the way towards comprehension.

How do you guys do it? I look here and everyone’s so eloquent and with it.

This morning, I woke up at 5:37 and it probably took my brain 45 minutes to get past first gear!

@Helical_Code whew! And you’ve got a powerful brain in there. I stand a chance. 😂

@Coffee_and_Salt
You're too kind! I'm pretty sure that civilization owes most of its existence to caffeine. That said, there's a lab chief in our department who's a Mormon, and so does not partake of caffeine. He's still killing it!

@Helical_Code I think you’re absolutely right there. Or at the very least our beliefs we should start heavy thinking at dawn has been seriously influenced by its presence!

I respect their resolve for no coffee, but I suppose if you’ve avoided it you get to avoid its downsides too. 😂

I learned I’m genetically inclined to metabolize caffeine faster than average. Boo.

@Coffee_and_Salt
It's true that there are downsides to caffeine, including the expense! All the more reason to brew your own as much as possible. (I schlep thermoses to work on the regular.)

@Helical_Code yes!! I haven’t purchased a coffee from somewhere in a very very long time.

A home milk frother was a game changer. That’s luxury living I’m telling you. Even for those who don’t enjoy coffee. It’s kinda fun and makes home brews feel lavish without a ton of extra cost or disposable cups.

@Coffee_and_Salt
We were *just* talking about home milk frothers after happy hour last Friday (it was our lab's turn to host). Which one do you have?

@Coffee_and_Salt One of the best things I ever did for myself was buy a nice espresso machine with a milk steamer. Oh, the mochas and hot chocolates I can make! Ask Eleanor about those!
