Right, so you may have noticed I'm just babbling here.  That's because I have no idea what else to do with a wiki page.  I mean, I have no desire to have a blog, and I already have a personal web page that, while not really what I'd call "complete" is certainly sufficient for my needs.  So I suppose I'm using the wiki here as an outlet for my normal insanity.

Ok, I have a question for all you weirdos who are still reading this page.  Why is it that when I go to a party where there are lots of people drinking to excess, and I drink nothing with alcohol in it, I'm the one who ends up with the hangover?  Just to add to the weirdness, when I did drink, I never got a hangover.  Somehow doesn't seem to make sense to me, but then, very little about life does.  Oh well, back to sitting in a dark, quiet room sipping my seltzer.  -[[User:Morrigu|Morrigu]] 13:44, 1 Jan 2005 (EST)

And now for another link.  Despite it being slow to update lately, I still love [http://www.sexylosers.com Sexy Losers].  It's a very amusing web comic, though as a warning I suppose I should say it's an "adult" oriented comic, with lots of nudity and such.  -[[User:Morrigu|Morrigu]] 02:39, 11 Jan 2005 (EST)

Well, that's it.  Today is Valentines day.  I'm broke.  So I gave my wife a present of myself.  I told her to decide how much beard she wanted me to have, and she said she wanted me to shave, so I'm now clean shaven (And dealing with a cold face).  It's weird.  I almost didn't recognize myself without the beard.  It's been 3 years or so at this point.  Well, now the fun really begins.  Now I get to see how my roommates react.  ;)  -[[User:Morrigu|Morrigu]] 15:46, 14 Feb 2005 (EST)

Revision as of 07:45, 30 March 2011

I've started brewing my own beer!

I figured if I have beer and caffeine pages, I need some notes on tea.

At Ratri's prompting/insistance, here it is: Morrigu's Wish List!

The Chainmail Fairy

My thoughts on Caffeine

I've been working in IT for long enough to have developed a deep relationship with caffeine. When you can get woken up pretty much any time, day or night, year round, and have to be awake and alert enough to support the systems that your office relies upon, you begin to realize the value of stimulants. Before touching a system I'm responsible for I want to make sure that I'm alert enough to not make any horrible mistakes. Towards that end, I've been trying various products offered on ThinkGeek. Here's the list of what I've ordered and tried, and what I think of these products:

Caffeinated "Magic" brownie mix ($13.99): Simple brownie mix with coffee bean chunks in it. Reasonably tasty mocha flavor, but the crunchy bits are a turn-off to me.

Blood Caffeinated Energy Potions ($4.99 ea, $15.99/4): Tasty, a little sweet, fruit punch, with an appropriately metallic aftertaste. Got the first one free, I'll be paying for the next.  ;)

Mana Potions ($19.95/6): Taste nasty, and have varied reactions. If they work for you, they're great. If not, they're too expensive.

Diablo Energy Strips ($2.99/18 strips): Taste pretty good, and are a nice sugar-free pick me up. Well worth the low price.

Oral Fixation Night Light chai mints ($2.99/pack): Tasty, but low on the caffiene. If you like cinnamon mints, they're pretty good.

BuzzStrong Cookies ($4.99/dozen): Chocolate chip coffee cookies. Pretty tasty, but too heavy for anything but a snack.

ShowerShock soap ($6.99): It's like showering with that first sip of coffee in the morning. I'm ordering a case.

VoJo Energy Mints w/Guarana ($3.99): Little mints in a case with a mirror and small rectangle of paper inside. Not enough caffeine to notice, but they're tasty.

Caffeinated Nixie Tubes ($8.99/pack of 5): These are sort of like pixie sticks, but in plastic test tubes and with caffeine. Some taste horrible, others are pretty good, but in general I think they're more gimmick than anything else.
