Default Carson City Boredom.

At this very moment it is 10:12 pm and I have had eight Rock Star energy drinks. I am doing a personal study on possible side effects of caffeine over dose. So far the only thing I've found is that caffeine drops you twice as hard as it picks you up. I had cosumed five of these puppies at work, finishing my last one off at 5:50. At 6:20 the effects had faded and I became extremely tired. So I took it upon myself to drink three more at 8:00. I feel fine at the moment but I would like to know if there are any serious side effects that I should be worried about. Ill report back in a few hours as the caffeine wears off, I'm not sure what to expect...

I was with Bobby all night, this is no joke. He started coming down at my house, and he just about passed out on my floor while I was setting up the drums.

Bobby- sleep tight

I like how fever is just slightly worse than death.

Dude, I didn't crash, I laid down at libila's house because I was bored. I felt no different. I slept fine was asleep at a normal time, 12:30am, was awake this morning at 9:00am. I didn't memtion this on my first post but all I ate yesterday was half a bag of dorritos, a bluebarry muffin, and a hand full of chex mix. Lib is making it sound worse than it was, its not like i was twitching or hyper, even.
