Tonight I rented this movie about a computer programmer named Winter who is attempting to visit every Starbucks in the US. Bottom line, this guy is off the trolly, mentally. If you’re ever curious to see what 29 cups in the same day can do to a man, check this movie out.

Aside from the 29 cups of coffee, consider the amount of time spent waiting for your order 29 x 5 minutes (average) = 145 minutes of standing, waiting, and dodging awkward stares while you wig out from all of that caffeine. Starbucks has lost its luster in my opinion. I used to be excited about going for coffee because I felt like I was supporting the growth of a great Seattle-based business. Around the time of rapid expansion, I realized it was no longer fun.

Speaking of fun, I came down with a case of food poisoning. This was awesome, considering that this I just started my new job. Getting up every 30 minutes to use the restroom makes the best first impression, let me tell you. All kidding aside, my body became weak and I felt as if 70% of my energy was gone just like that. I tried to continue my work/workout routine, but my body wasn’t happy at all. I’ve been eating lots of greens and drinking lots of tea.

The moral of this blog is to stay away from the mystery sushi and buy a coffee maker, I think that last one is a mental reminder for me.
