I've come up with a compromise for Watuary this year; I'll cut the coffee and go for _a single cup_ of plain black tea. This drops my caffeine from ~500mg / day down to around 75mg / day. That should stave off the headaches but let me bring down my tolerance. Maybe in a week I can start halving it again.

I'll definitely quit the energy drinks, milk, and eggnog.

Watuary. :getin:

excellent solution. and drat 500mg/day on the reg..

not going to manage to commit entirely, but i've derived a rule system that i think will work for me, and will after this post on for the sake of cohesion pretend that i am observing watuary fully. so, here we go.

the best thing about ticking boxes is that it only takes a pen and a box, you don’t actually need to do the thing

day 2: had to go to work today: drank 1.5L of water. many piss breaks were taken.

starting to get those withdraw tingles. I’m rolling with it at the moment. water feels good man.

work doesn’t feel good. excel for all its plaudits can suck a dick today. today is supposed to be my holiday.

but at least I got to come home to a nice tall glass of iced water.

obviously there should be a blanket exception for any liquid that you extract from your fellow man (this phrasing carefully chosen to not give support for vampirism)

Still hyped on day 2. A gallon a day keeps the kidney stones at bay. Already disgusted by the thought of a Red Bull. Amazing how quick that changes.

Wish I could say the same, my tea strategy failed. The caffeine headaches have hit in earnest and nothing is stopping them now. Just gotta wait it out and drink more water. Feels like a giant vice compressing my head right behind my eyeballs.

day four down. spent the day reading and writing reports and thinking about drinking things that weren’t water and then sipped down some unsatisfying water. I then went to a party where happy people were drinking happy drinks and I got to sip down some unsatisfying water. I feel great.

2.25L of water was consumed today. many pissed breaks were taken.
