caffeine withdrawal

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Toronto, 2003.07.08

I've been going to the gym for about two weeks, now, and I have noticed that I'm having a hell of a time concentrating at work (or at home, but what else is new?). Then it dawned on me this afternoon, as I was making my sole allotment of coffee, that it's the caffeine withdrawal, not the gym! Why, oh why did I try to quit coffee at the same time as I joined the gym?

In dwelling, be close to the land. In meditation, delve deep into the heart. In dealing with others, be gentle and kind. In speech, be true. In work, be competent. In action, be careful of your timing.

—Lao Tsu
