Welcome to today's daily kōrero!

Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there's no daily thread, feel free to create it!

Anyway, it's just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.

So how's it going?

At least it got sorted! I’m too lazy these days to do good coffee at home, we just buy instant now.

Funnily enough I had a post haste delivery shortly after you mentioned it. Didn’t show up the whole day it was scanned as on board, then the guy knocked on our door at 9.30PM because he was driving by and didn’t want to come back the next day.

I'm not really one for caffeine hits, honestly too much caffeine makes me tired. No idea why. I'd rather drink no coffee than instant 😀

I'm not even a coffee connoisseur, I wouldn't be able to tell you anything about a coffee except whether I liked it or not.

I cut back sometime ago to only one black coffee a day in the mornings, it was tough breaking the habit. Used to get a headache in the afternoons when I’d skip my afternoon coffee.

Instant’s not THAT bad once you get used to it.. some of the really cheap ones are much worse than others though

Interesting to see your comment about a coffee seemingly stopping your pm headaches.

Mrs Floofah sometimes suffers from Hypnic headaches at night. Always has a coffee shot in a glass ready to hand and it stops the headache very quickly. Her headaches seem to come in phases, 2 weeks every night, then nothing for 2 weeks.

That is interesting. For me it was more that I pretty much had a coffee at the same time every afternoon every single day. I'm guessing my body expected that caffeine hit every afternoon and wasn't happy when I started cutting it out.
