To have or not to have...


I keep looking at the bottom of my empty tea cup and keep contemplating whether or not I want more.  I have a plethora of tea in my cubbie here at work, and thanks to my wonderful Sri Lankan teammates, I have the really good stuff: Uva, Dimbula, Meda Watte…  I can drink whatever I’m in the mood for at any given time.  My question is this: do I really need another cup?  All the extra caffeine probably wouldn’t be a good idea, despite my lack of sleep last night.
Some have told me that I should cut caffeine out of my diet altogether.  My only caffeine intake is a daily cup of tea, and no matter how you spin it, tea is NOT crap.  I will not cut it.  J  However, I can keep my intake to a minimum.  
Dilemma solved.  I will not have another cup.

I've been on an article-sharing kick lately about ways to cut the crap. Sorry if it's not as fun... I'm convinced no one is reading this blog anyway, so it's all good. I'm writing this for me, and if someone else happens to read it... well... then that's gravy.

So yeah, we all need to better manage our time. There were some very obvious tips on this list, but some of them were things I want to try. So... for the rest of October, I'm going to try out these time management tips and report my progress to you. I encourage you to do the same. Let me know what you think!!!

Cutting out your bank? Could you live without that crap?

I hate banks as much as the next person, but I found this author's experiment to be an eye-opening one. I'm convinced that financial institutions are out to get our money any way they can. All of them.
