I used to drink about five pots of coffee a day. Then one day I did some deep Hatha Yoga breathing (what little I could remember from my days of trying to attain the Christ Energy) and when I stopped the exercise I didn't drink coffee anymore.
Go figure.
But, then I was faced with a number of problems.
One: people don't like you as much when you drink tea. Tea is a pain in the collective ass. Librarians, teachers, wimps and sick people drink tea.
Two: Waiters HATE you. And it can be a real problem if you want to pop into some quaint, little cafe in the Pacific Nortwest for a nosh and a slurp with a friend who is in desperate need of attention because if she gets coffee and you get tea you're gonna have to wait a full fifteen minutes before the fucking water cools enough to drink without scalding your thin but somewhat sunsual lips. When it finally does cool down enough to drink it's time to go.
The third problem...the one I really couldn't work out is...it tastes gross.
I also cut down on my cigarette intake the day the tea drinking started. About ten a day. It's kinda funny to tell a non-smoker you're smoking ten cigarettes a day. They don't get it.
"Is that good?" They ask, meaning well, I'm sure.
Good?
It's fucking ASTOUNDING!
Then they smile.
And tell you: "That's good!"
And it's suddenly OK.
Why?
