I have atleast 1 cup of coffee and atleast 1 pint of beer a day. I can't remember the last time I went a day without having either . . .

Please tell me I am not alone . . .

I only have coffee 5 days a week because I never drink it at home. I don't own a coffee pot or a tea kettle to boil water for instant coffee and there's no coffee in my apartment. I usually have 1 beer when I get home at night except I had my last one Saturday and haven't gotten around to stopping at the beer store to get more. If I go to Happy Hour at Hawaiian Tropic and my bartender friend is there I'll have more than one. Maybe many more than one if there's a night like a few weeks ago and she doesn't charge me after the first one.

I drink tea everyday...about 3-4 cups of it through out the day. Would go into a coma if I skipped a day! Never drink coffee.

I only drink alcohol about 2x a week...except in the summer when it is a bit more often. I need a reason to drink and very rarely just have a drink at home. It is almost always an "event".

I, like Larry (YES!), drink caffeine on a week-day basis. And it's usually in the form of a Rockstar. Sometimes it's a coffee Rockstar, so does that count twice??

When it comes to alcohol, I drink less than Larry. I've tried not to get in the habit of drinking alone. And I also don't drink when I have my kids over. It's not like I tell them I don't drink, then grab the Maraschino cherry juice and the Vanilla from the cupboard when they're not looking.

They see the beer and alcohol in the fridge....and they complain every time I make Jell-O....cause they know it's not for them.

This fact makes me a cheap date....anybody looking for one of those?

I have about 3 cups M-F during the work day plus a Starbucks latte 1 or 2 weekdays a week. I have 2 cups at home and Starbucks on Saturdays and Sundays.

I usually will throw back a couple margaritas one or two days a week when I go out for Mexican food.

I drink 8-10 diet Dr Peppers a day

I get a headache around noon if I don't get some caffeine in my system.

I'll have a beer with dinner most nights, and some rum in the Dr Pepper fairly often,
but alcohol is definitely not an every day thing like the DDP.

Usually one cup of coffee everyday. On weekends when I want to nap in the afternoon, I do not have a cup of coffee.

Yesterday I had the trifecta, cup of coffee, martini and a beer.

Coffee everday but only in the morning -never at night or I can't sleep
Alcohol is rare -definitely when I see JB or at a party if I'm not driving (but I am usually the driver

)

Caffeine every day. Alcohol not so much. Usually 1-2 cups of coffee in the morning and a Pepsi in the afternoon. Can't caffeine much after dinner any more or else I have trouble getting to sleep. Used to be able to drink it whenever/wherever, but recent months Mallory-no-sleepey.

I'm not a big drinker at all.

But when I do it up, I do it up.

I was about to say something about doing candy, but people might think less of me than they already do.

Diet Dr. Pepper is a quality drink.

But my weakness is Diet Pepsi. If I drank alcohol like I drink that, I'd be on my third liver.

In my coffee maker each morning I make 24 oz and that is it for the day.

In the summer I drink far more alcohol. I can go weeks without it in the winter.............alcohol that is

Coffee during the week, tea on the weekend, alcohol as chosen.

Soda every day. Way too much of it, in fact. Coffee occasionally, more so now that the weather is turning.

I think about drinking every day. Does that count????

A few a week, usually.

I'm not really awake until I've had atleast 2 cups of coffee....

I gave up caffeine 20+ years ago (heart palp. problems)and MAYBE go through one or two bottles of wine a month. I have liquor in my cabinet that hasn't been touched since one of the first RM concert nights. Just not a big drinker.
