It seems that certain activities I take have a very large effect on how I feel throughout a day. For instance, as I've known a long time, watching TV in the morning puts me in a horrible haze for the entire day. A small amount of caffeine gets me jazzed and puts my brain in high gear; in that case I come up with all kinds of brilliant and/or crazy ideas all day. Too much caffeine makes me unable to think and puts me in the opposite type of haze, where I bounce everywhere and can't stop.
Life seems like a balancing act between the manic and the depressive*, depending on how many things I do and what my caffeine intake is. By balancing this I should be able to create the perfect me...the one that's brilliant and witty all the time.
The moral of the story is that I'm considering taking up coffee drinking.
*Aspiring amateur psychologists shouldn't read too much into this, the illness doesn't operate like this. It's called caffeine.
