experiment
I am currently on Day Three of no caffeine, just sort of trying out an experiment with personal chemistry. I've been working on improving my posture and bodily awareness pretty actively for the last two years and one of the things that has come to light through that process is that I have a great deal of difficulty relaxing—my hands, jaw, face, neck, shoulders and feet seem to always be storing enormous reserves of tension. I'm not certain that the caffeine is fully to blame but I suspect that it can't be helping.
I can't remember the last time I went three days with no caffeine. Normally on the second day I am struck by a terrible headache and I give in. I decided to make a go of struggling through the withdrawl this week because I already have a cold—since I'm already going to feel achey and groggy and unproductive, why not embark on something that's going to make me feel achey and groggy and unproductive?
OK. Time to drag my achey and groggy and unproductive body down to the Chicago Cultural Center to drop off my revised grant budget. |
