I've only had coffee a couple of times in my life, but I'm starting to see why people are hooked. My first taste of coffee (besides ice cream) doesn't really count--it was instant cold coffee that was in a big cooler at a picnic. Needless to say, it wasn't very good. A few weeks ago I tried hot (read: real) coffee at Joe and Bayley's apartment and I was pleasantly surprised by what it really tastes like. I wasn't used to the caffeine high associated with it and got a little shaky after just one glass. I just tried my second cup of real coffee, here at a café in France. Even though it was just a little expresso, it had the same effect. I guess it's like alcohol tolerance and once you get used to coffee the caffeine becomes less strong? Otherwise I don't know how so many people drink so many cups a day... I can see myself starting to drink coffee more regularly when I get up early to teach, though...
