Decaf...

Every so often I get the inclination to try and go without caffeine.  Some people might laugh at this idea because I'm pretty much an addict, as in I have two to three a day at school and even more when I get home at night.  All that changed this week when I decided to see how long I can go without a caffeinated beverage of any kind.

You may be asking yourself, "geez, I wonder what he's replacing all that soda with at school."  I'm glad you asked.  I'm taking a concentrated batch of decaf iced tea in and mixing it with a large mug of ice water and artificial sweetener.  It lasts me a lot longer than a can of coke and must be better for me.  

As for effects of such a shift, I haven't had any headaches, but I have been a little on edge at times and a little sleepy during the day.  On the other hand, I've been sleeping like a baby at night, so I'm pretty happy for the decision.
