Let me paint you a picture:
7:00am Arise and eat breakfast of champions
7:20am Drive truck to lower pasture, cut ~25 gallons of compressed grass with pocket knife, drive to upper pasture and deliver to goats
8:00am Start work day at home computer
12:30pm Drive to Durant, OK to meet with prospective (and now current) employee.
2:20pm No Starbucks is found, so end up in Arby's restaurant (now listen carefully here) where a large drink is purchased. Soda fountain contains Sobe energy drink with Taurine, guarana and who knows what else. Drink several large cups of Sobe while interviewing/discussing job
4:00pm Sit in car in Arby's parking lot listening to and responding to voicemails that arrived during interview
5:30pm Start driving home
5:45pm Stop at rest stop (hello again Sobe)
6:30pm Arrive at home and eat dinner
7:45pm Put kids in bed and start working
8:45pm Still working
9:45pm Still working
10:45pm Still working
11:45pm Still working
12:45am Still working
1:45am Still working
2:40am Post blog entry you are now reading
2:41am Still not really tired, but figure going to bed is a good idea since I have to work tomorrow and have 2 big contracts starting
Apparently the folks at Sobe have something here. I can work forever. Do I really want to wake up tomorrow though? I have a feeling this is not going to be pleasant.

Woooo-whooo-hooo! Reminds me of my Slurpee-lovin' days. A new flavor came out that was called "jolt" or "zap" or something and I loved it (the name should have been the first hint). But I couldn't figure out why I was having trouble sleeping. Like three months later I finally saw an actual bottle of the drink, in non-Slurpee form, and looked at the ingredients. Ooops.
Guarana, by the way, is super yummy on it's own. I'ts the main soda drink in Brazil, like Coke or Pepsi here.
I must share this information with Mark ASAP. Can't wait to hear about your day-after hangover--was it worth it?
Actually, I feel OK today. I repeated the 7am haycutting and put in a SOLID work day.
I did just get in trouble with a lady who works for our company who "had her feathers ruffled" during a conversation with her. I have to admit, I am a bit frazzled and I also have to admit that I think this person is incompetent. So was it the taurine or just having to work with mediocrity that set me off?
We may never know. As far as how I feel, I feel kinda tired and my eyes are grating in their sockets a bit and I have a minor headache. Other than that, I feel fine.
