A small piece of advice, don't go drinking waterfalls of coffee when you get your machine back. Stick to the rivers and lakes your body is used to.
Without the Destiny's Child reference, it's like a recovering opioid addict who's fallen off the wagon. Your body isn't used to the amount of coffee you drank two weeks ago. So drink less than you did. Also if you want to save money could be a great time to moderate your caffeine intake altogether, since you're already basically done the hardest part.
I mean I'd like to follow that advice, but my coffee consumption is quite low actually. I usually drink half a cup of coffee a day. Some days 2 half. And this only in the morning.
The problem is that if I don't, I tend to get quite the bad migraine around noon. So I prefer to simply have it. Also it does boost my mood and productivity in the morning a lot. I don't really feel like I need to stop it, but I appreciate your advice, I do know some people who drink an awful lot of coffee which even I find kinda disturbing.
