The issue: I have little energy for housework after I get home from work.
Observation the first: When I have a coffee around 9am, I crash hard and want to fall asleep around 2pm.
Observation the second: Before I crash hard, I am miraculously productive and energetic.
Observation the third: Most of my caffeine intake is in the very dilute form of Diet Pepsi (~3 mg/oz). I very rarely drink coffee (average 12 mg/oz) and never take more than a few sips of an energy drink (avg 10-20 mg/oz).
Hypothesis: Drinking coffee upon getting home from work (usually between 4:30 and 5 pm) will give me energy to do household tasks I normally cannot, and allow me to fall asleep by my normal bedtime of 11:00.
Methodology: I shotgunned one 8-oz can of room temperature Twix flavored coffee drink (between 60-80 mg caffiene) at roughly 5:30 pm after impulse buying a 12-pack at Sam's Club.
Observations until time of posting:
I portioned and froze everything else I bought in bulk immediately after dinner. Usually after dinner, I sit on the couch and scroll social media.
As scheduled, I hosted the usual weekly anime club. This week, while watching the show, I made significant progress on a weaving project. This is not necessarily out of the ordinary, as I had begun it the evening previously and had been excited to continue.
The first yawn has been recorded around 10:30 pm.
Potential complications:
If this caffeine crash does not happen as predicted, an important day at work tomorrow will fucking suck.
I have a tendency to get migraines if I do not have enough caffeine. In the long term, heightening my caffeine dependency may prove detrimental in the side effects of its absence.
Current course of action: it is now nearing 11 pm and I will attempt to go to sleep.
I will return for more observations in the morning.

Finally had time to catch up on the raven and the snake. I am just in awe of everything.
Also, I kinda like Clora hanging out with Garreth and Leander. (don't kill me 🤐)
aw thank you!!🥹💖💖im happy to hear it!
and NO i wont kill you, you are so right. the garreth/leander/clora hangout was my fav part of the chapter and also the most fun part to write, and it gave me an appreciation for the leander and garreth dynamic, which is amazing
i now headcanon their relationship like brothers LMAO, garreth constantly badgering leander and getting on his nerves, while leander is just exasperated in dealing with him (BUT IN A FRIENDLY WAY) theyre like characters in a sitcom tbh BAHAHA
(and to anyone wondering, im gonna TRY to have the next chap up within the first week of feb!🙏 ive just been busy with the dark relic comic + work + and now i feel a bit under the weather. ive been sleeping almost nonstop for the past 2 days LOL oop)
