Use one of these. With strong coffee.

The eggnog latte is good, but most places tend to scald it (eggnog scalds at a lower temp than milk).
"It is not the literal past that rules us, save, possibly, in a biological sense. It is images of the past. Each new historical era mirrors itself in the picture and active mythology of its past or of a past borrowed from other cultures. It tests its sense of identity, of regress or new achievement against that past.”

It's 5:00 AM and I didn't get much sleep, so I'm currently making some Cail-brand coffee. I think I've got about three filters in there and triple the recommended dosage of French roast. Come to me, wake-up-juice!

Foul, you better sweeten that brew-haha up, or your jittery bitterness will know no easement. Super-steeped French roast? Might as well chew the beans, man. Gak!

It's funny, but I still don't know how much it takes to make me jittery. Apparently not 3 shots of espresso, which tastes considerably stronger than the French roast I made this morning.

Of course, I was half-dead when I had the roast. Heck, still am. Probably takes four espresso shots to send me bouncing, I'll bet.
