My stepdaughter didn't get much relief from her nerve block.  She has
another one scheduled for Thursday.  If the nerve blocks aren't helping,
they will try something different.  If they did help, I guess she would
go in once per week for a long time.

Does pot help?

Or maybe Anne isn't sleeping well b/c she drinks too much diet pepsi 
before bedtime, resulting in too much caffiene in the system.  You 
might sleep better if you adopt a rule to not drink any diet pepsi 
after dinner.

I sleep better if I eat a bunch of cheese.

re resp:84 I would rather not take Benadryl- because I already take a 2x
a day prescribed allergy medication. So I don't want to add an
additional antihistimine on top of that.

Plus, I don't tend to sleep 8 hours at a stretch- usually it's around 6
(with a 1.5 hour nap in the evening)- yes I have a strange sleep
schedule. Plus given my tendency to do things like turn my alarm of in
my sleep- I don't think a medication that makes me too groggy would be a
good idea for getting to work on time.

And for the record, I don't drink Diet Pepsi after 5 (in other words,
once I get home from work I generally drink just water). Not that
caffeine has ever really affected my sleep patterns before.

re resp:94 Yeah, but I just don't like the taste.

I likes some wines, just something about beer. That and I don't have
enough interest to try to cultivate a liking. ;)

It's an acquired taste, anyway.  So many nasty beers, too few good ones.

I'd say it's quite the opposite ; most beers are quite fine.

Also, I've heard that coffee is an acquired taste, too ; I've had no problem
acquiring the taste of beer, but coffee is still as nasty as ever.

I tend to like more coffees than I do types of beer.

tod, you might then like Lagunitas Cappucino Stout, which is made with 
real coffee.  You can get it at Whole Foods.

re resp:100 Now see, I'm the exact opposite, I've found coffee to be
much more pleasing.

I like both beer and coffee, the difference being that coffee is an
addiction but beer is not.

Alcoholism is an addiction, isn't it?
jep
response 106 of 318: Mark Unseen   Jan 18 17:06 UTC 2006

Coffee isn't an addiction, it is a basic need, like air and water.  
Intelligent life could not exist without it.  The decline in civility 
in America is because of decaf.

re #102
Thanks. (I don't shop at Whole Foods.)

Re #105:  Yes, in a loose sense, which is why I'm glad I'm *not*
addicted to beer.

Neither coffee or beer is, strictly speaking, an addiction. You can drink
either without getting addicted. However, it is, of course, possible to get
addicted to them - and easier, perhaps, than it is to get addicted to, say,
potato.

Some people don't get addicted to caffeine, alcohol, or nicotine, and some
do.

re #109
I dunno..I think its becoming more popular to get addicted to the insulin from
fast food(potato) than with beer.

Hmm, that may well be true. Good point. In the USA, anyhow. I think people's
fave addiction is still beer in the UK.

 And that's not all..  The kids these days are all hooked on this stuff they
 call "O2".  In street slang they're known as "breathers."
