Sex, Tea and Rock ‘n’ Roll doesn’t really have a ring to it so I’ll never be a pop star. My addiction is available in any grocery store – just plain old caffeine. Over the weekend, David Lynch wrote an article for Huffington Post about his addiction to coffee.
I totally relate to where he’s coming from guzzling 20 cups per day and now only 7. I get through that much tea and coffee every day too, about 7 cups but certainly less than 20 and like him, I love every single cup and look forward to the next one. The bit that needs to be curbed is sugar: I did something quite shocking for my family and started drinking tea and coffee without sugar as you can imagine how hyper I would become on that combination. I tried to detox once a few years back and got full body ache from the withdrawal symptoms. Needless to say that didn’t last long, it’s not such a bad vice is it?
David Lynch’s 20-a-day habit was at the time he produced Twin Peaks and created the coffee-guzzling character of Dale Cooper so perhaps that much coffee creates a surreal dimension. Don’t try this at home kids…
