This is a phrase that is often heard during the course of a day, whether spoken by co-workers or housewives talking to friends on the phone. I need coffee. I often say this phrase myself and all I do is sit in front of this computer all day.
Coffee can be a very addictive habit, not quite as bad as cigarettes or hard core drugs, but it seems addictive just the same. How many people can function without that morning cup of coffee? Not many, I'm sure.
Today is an unusual day for me. Normally, having been up for a couple of hours, I am working on consuming my third or fourth cup of joe. Today I have only had one cup. I am finding it harder than normal to think. If my body would cooperate more (I am very pained today) I'd get up and get a second cup as I am sure that would clear up the cobwebs in my mind so that I could think more clearly. It also would, I'm sure, make me feel more awake. I feel like taking a nap lol
In the meantime I sit here looking at ads on PTC sites and being bored and trying my best to think so that I can write posts for pay that will make you, my readers, desire to visit the websites that I write about.
And think to myself...I need coffee.

Thoughts
Poker players go from one extreme to the other. Some think too much, some just don't seem to think at all.
Here is the thinker: they've been dealt two cards. They take forever trying to decide if these two cards are worth betting on or not. What i8s there to dwell on? Either they are good cards or maybe they go together, like a 3 and a four or they are the same suit, or they just aren't worth your money. Don't make everyone else suffer just because you are confused. Fold and get it over with already!
The non-thinker: Has a five of clubs and a nine of hearts. No fives or nines in the flop. They bet all of their chips, sometimes thousands of dollars worth. There is no way in Hell I'd go all in with garbage like that. These folks do it and then are shocked when they lose LOL
My better half says I have a problem. If she goes out for a walk she comes home to find me playing poker. If she goes out shopping or somewhere and she calls me, she finds me playing poker. When I am home alone, I play poker. I don't see the problem. It's hard to concentrate on things with people around, especially when I need to listen to them and respond so that they know I am listening LOL
I wonder if I will have a problem when I finally win a cash tournament? LOL
