67 ways to know when you're addicted to coffee...

recently, i had to stay in columbia for two weeks for work.  the orientation for internship was great, but the days and nights away from my husband...not so great. to kill time, i spent a lot of time at this coffee shop, cool beans, every day after i got off. scofield went to school at usc, so it's a coffee shop we spent a lot of time at together when we were dating. so of course, being without him, that's the place i picked to hang out ;). it made me feel better, you know...
anywho, they have this sign above the cream and sugar station, which is hilarious, so i thought i'd share. in college, i lived off of coffee. maybe my system had such an overdose over those four years, that it started to reject all the caffeine, because now i can only handle maybe a cup a day. so in honor of my former coffee drinking days....here you go...
