Just how addicted to coffee am I?

According to the coffee addiction quiz on www.allthetests.com I scored 63 out of 70 points for a coffee addiction... Apparently that's a bad thing because it ended the little summary of my score by warning me against the dangers of drinking coffee too much such as yellow teeth. Well, yellow schmellow. Maybe they've never heard of tooth paste, but its actually quite useful for cleaning teeth...shocking. Either way, the quiz is ridiculous. Maybe they should take in to account the fact the maybe some of us need coffee to get through the day at work. Now, some of you might think that that is a slight exaggeration...and if you are and you're sitting behind your desk sans coffee then you should just be thankful that you do get to sit at your desk all day. Coffee is an essential part of an Ivar's workers life. To the extent that the 3 coffee places around us know us and our orders. Because when you spend the day answering the same questions over and over again, what else is there to do besides drink a lot of coffee? It gives a glimmer of hope at the beginning of a seemingly endless 8 hour shift...and in the middle...and at the end. Its just great. And while I'm sure that I'm doing plenty of damage with my exessive coffee drinking, its worth it. Because it tastes delicious and its a good picker upper.
Not that I don't like my job, because I do. It's great. But frying food can get a little old after a while. I found out today that I've worked 826 hours since I started working there a year ago. Actually 832 because I worked 6 today. I'm almost working full time hours now, I think I have 37 this week. But its fun. Its kind of like this little competition to see how many hours I can get. not like I have much better to do. Anyways. I love coffee.

peace out
