A new meme? No, just another list...

While traipsing through the information superhighway (or, if you prefer, the ‘internets’) the other night, I decided to type something into Google to see what popped up.

What I found would shock and amaze you, and make you squirm…

I’m kidding.

I did find a handy little list that made me laugh (and we all know how much I love lists).

I’ve added my own listings to the list, changed some of the other istings in the list in order to better reflect myself and my coffee habit… No, make that my coffee inclination… That doesn’t work, how about my coffee tendency… no I have it...

My coffee dependency.

I thought about making this a meme, but decided better of it. (Best friend Scott, ChildsPlay X 2, MetroDad, Mr. Big Dubya, Becky and Sarah should all be breathing a huge sigh of relief.)

So here it is.

You Know You're Drinking Too Much Coffee When…

• You answer the door before people knock.

• You grind your coffee beans in your mouth.
• You lick your coffeepot clean.
