Stuff occurs when Ram is around. I don't know why, and the net result now is that I'm sitting at my desk in the middle of the night typing this blog. Thing is, I can't sleep. I've drank too much coffee and I'm in the midst of a coffee induced daze. My hands are shaking as I type this.
I guess you're wondering why the hell did I drink too much coffee in the first place. Lets start with why I have a coffeemaker sitting beside me in the first place.
The main reason is that the dorm has coffee that has the taste and effect of piss. ie, it tastes horrible and the caffeine content is so low that it is not worth drinking three cups of the urine-like liquid to stay awake to mug at 1 am in the morning. That, for a full time geek like me, is one big huge reason why I spent my first paycheck on a coffeemaker.
Anyway, Ram was hungry (he's vegetarian, and dorm food, although tasting like grass, contain almost exclusively meat products), and thus I suggested getting pizza. At the same time, I was mugging for the chem exam next week and.................
Damn it. I've lost the patience to tell the whole tale. Anyway, after one complication and another, the pizza came, albeit two hours late. Ram by that time was downstairs waltzing around like a stoned bugger he was (and still is). He called me and requested for "a strong brew of coffee please." I promptly added half a cup more of Folgers and brewed a strong brew. A cup for me and two cups for him.
Then he disappeared again, leaving me to eat half the pizza upstairs. The coffee was getting cold and I thought " Oh well, good coffee shouldn't be wasted." That, was how I drank 4 cups of extra strong coffee. All of my doing of course. Dammit!
