sleep: a hypothesis
On Sunday, I slept late enough that my whole day got shifted a few hours late. That meant that by the time I felt like my second tea of the day, it was too late. Bad: afternoon zombie. Good: slept the sleep of the just.
Yesterday, I tried an experiment: just a cup of tea late in the morning instead of my usual pot. I slept better last night, even with the same number of tea bags per day — two — as when I don't sleep well. Nearly seven continuous hours!
Moral: it isn't the caffeine, it's the volume? Clearly further research is needed. But... but... I like making a pot of tea. Maybe that'll be my early morning thing.
