I love a cup of black hot coffee in the morning. What about you do you need coffee to start the day or is it something else? What do you need to start the day?

I love coffee, especially cappuccino. I usually pick one up before work and that helps get me through the day.

Hi there Soccermom! I understand why you pick this up before going to work, haha, it's needed isn't it? Seeing I know where you work, I suggest you put a shot in it next time, that will REALLY help you get through at that place, LOL! Talk to you soon!

I actually need at least two cups of coffee to make my day start well. I normally drink two cups in the morning before I leave for school, then I take a large coffee cup with me. This equates to about 4 cups for that day. If I am at home in the morning (working from home) who knows how many cups I drink. At least 4 if not more. Today I only had one cup, and I have been draggin along all day. Im even going to bed much earlier tonight.

I'm actually really weird. I don't need it to start my day, although i make it and drink it, but my biggest time i crave coffee is at night time after all the kids are in bed. coffee and a book to read or something to write at night is what i really enjoy and look forward to as the day goes on. God bless

First of all, I have a cat that looks just like the one in your picture here. He's the one that usually wakes me up. So does my coffee pot, it goes on automatically at a quarter to six, and the smell of fresh coffee usually gets me up out of bed. It takes me almost an hour to wake up, and for that coffee to kick in. Don't know if I could wake up at all without it.

Thank you for your response. I choose that picture because my cat looks like her, my cat has only greener eyes. Her name is kathy and she's almost 14 years old,she loves the smell of coffee but don't drink it. LOL She never wakes me up, that's gizmo's job.

back then I also needed the coffee very much in the morning or I would not be able to spend the whole day without suddenly falling into sleep. :P however, later I realized that I had drunk too much coffee and I became a coffee addict. and I got trouble with the stomach, and my hands sometimes shook (somekinda tremors), I decided to stop drinking coffee from that moment until today. so I only have tea as the only choice nowadays. I still need some * black * tea so I would be able to stay awake the whole day for rushing the project to finish it on time.

No, I am not really a coffee person but I like coffee as well though I don't need it to start the day or when working nightshift.

When I awake in the morning I have my pot of coffee, about six cups, then I will have my ice cold coke cola, then I have a glass of water, then back to my coffee. Usually about 2 cups per hour during the day while I'm on the net.

No coffee for me. However, my husband can't live without it.He is addicted to coffee if you ask me. I prefer sweet tea and that is about all I drink. If I don't have it in the morning, I am grouchy all day.

NOPE! For me the first thing I do in the morning is grab a can of diet soda. I am not a big coffee drinker. I never have been. I will drink it sometimes, but when I do it has to have sugar and cream in it. I can't drink it black.

I don't usually drink coffee. If I do drink it, which is probably only once or twice a month, I like flavored coffee with sweetener. I usually drink some fruit juice or water to start my day. I definitely need some breakfast as well to start my day because I am so hungry in the morning.
