If you listen to my podcast episodes along the way, you know that I recently gave up coffee. Today marks day 10 without coffee. Surprisingly, I don't miss it.

I found myself realizing I was falling into the realm of an addiction situation with coffee. It was hard to start my day without a warm cup of coffee. That's the thing with coffee, it easily goes from being that thing you drink in the morning to that thing you need in the morning.

My day was to the point that it started with a pounding headache. It felt like someone was banging around in my head. Not only did it hit me in the morning, at the end of the night, all of the caffeine I had consumed during the day came back to haunt me. Coffee was causing a strange issue in my life. I couldn't wake up without it, but I couldn't sleep with it.

That relationship with coffee was the inspiration for this comic episode. I imagined my anxiety needing coffee in the morning too. If it didn't get it, it would form a musical protest of sorts. I definitely felt those protests banging in my head for the first day after giving up coffee, but after a bit I actually felt better.

I hope you enjoy today's episode!
