I'm a tea drinker -- we have a very nice Asian market nearby where I can buy good, loose tea in bulk. But you cannot get good tea on the road, so i get coffee, heavy on the milk and sugar. I really like good tea, but I like coffee better than tepid, bad tea. And when I stop in at Starbucks tomorrow (they have several of the franchises along the New York Throughway) when I drive my son back to college, I'll be the person who asks for, "Whatever you give a person who asks for a large coffee."

I have to think long and hard before going over $5 for an ebook. It's been known to happen, but (unlike in caffeine-land) there are too many good alternatives at that price for me to spend more.

(Any vampire that dines on my over-caffeinated blood will have trouble getting to sleep the next morning!)
