Like most people, I love a nice hot cup of coffee to kickstart my day with. Or two. Or three. It's proving to be a bit difficult to control the addiction, though. By the time I get to work I'm so wired I'm bouncing. Which is okay, I mean, I have stuff to do, so I can burn that bounce right back down. After about three hours, when the bouncing has reduced itself to merely vibrating, it's time for a refill. Or two. Or three. And thus, the downward spiral into madness, mayhem, and serious addiction continues.
I have tried all the usual methods to control it. You know, alcohol, recreational drugs, electric shock therapy, heavy gambling. To no avail. Then I tried prescription drugs (side effects may include respiratory distress, heart failure, brain damage, spontaneous combustion, aggressive sexual predation...) to no avail. Then I got inventive, and tried acupuncture. Yoga. Herbal tea. Incense. Meditation. Bed of nails. Nothing helped.
Sheer desperation has resulted in my latest brainstorm...taking up extreme sports. My logic being to replace one rush with another. Wisely, I've decided to approach this idea with caution. Introduce myself gradually to the world of Extreme Sports. Which Wikipedia lists as any activity that results in death if an error is made. Right up my alley!!
Thus, I shall do a bit of thinking, and figure out what extreme sport suits me best.

I would suggest squirrel suits -

This would be perfect for you, and would settle a few bets that I have with others over your sanity ;)
Wow!! I could take down a few bald eagles with that handy little suit. I say it's never too late to start a new sport... Bald Eagle Bustin!! Too fuckin cool!
Let me get my goggles and a shovel so I can bury the carcass once we hit the ground :D I always assume I will succeed at new endeavors >:]
and I like to leave a clean site so the next guy doesn't land in the carnage. Thoughtful, I am. :D
