Coffee consumption poll

This coffee mug image at left says it all for me. Lately, I'm not fully awake until I've had a cup or three of java to jump-start my eyelids. (Check out more fun and unique coffee mugs here.)

Thankfully, my coffee necessity is not quite so dire lately since Solomon decided to start sleeping through the night. I'm almost afraid to post that glorious milestone lest I jinx the utter deliciousness of uninterrupted rest. But even as I type this I remember the truer-than-true baby adage, "It's just a phase." Even Solly's sleeping 9 hours straight could be a phase. So, I thank God for every night regardless of the sleep count.

I truly rely on my daily jolt of coffee to get me moving in the morning and to keep me moving through my daily afternoon slump. When Solly wasn't sleeping well I didn't even bother counting how many coffee cups I chugged. It was probably around 4-6 cups of joe a day. Yikes! Not good.

Now that Solomon's improving in the sleep department, I need to start weaning myself down to a healthier amount of coffee consumption. I'm aiming for 1-2 fully caffeinated cups in the morning and 1-2 half-caf cups in the afternoon.

Am I the only one with this bad habit? Kindly participate in the poll below and make me feel better about my caffeine addiction. :) What's your caffeine-laden beverage of choice?

Free Iced Coffee tomorrow from Dunkin Donuts!

Tomorrow Dunkin' Donuts is giving away free iced coffees!!!! Stop in anytime between 10 a.m. and 10 p.m. for a free 16 oz. iced coffee. Hope you can avail yourself of this free offer!

Have you noticed that Dunkin' Donuts has made a serious comeback this year? Two new locations just opened in my area recently. Gone are the days of the short plump brown-mustached DD worker who wore an orange hat and trudged around saying, "Time to make the donuts . . . " Remember that guy?

Something turned DD around lately. They've got a sharp looking website and aggressive marketing campaign going complete with funny google video commercials (with catchy music by They Might be Giants!). I posted a particularly cute commercial below. I feel this way every time I order at Starbucks. Enjoy!
