Felled by Coffee

One thing has become apparent over the past 3 months: my choice in company name has been greatly approved of my the web design community. I've had numerous emails from people complimenting me on my choice of name, and a quick Google search proves that 'Fuelled on Coffee Limited' has been approved of by English, French, German and Portuguese speakers alike as a gosh darn good choice of name. (I think my gran disagrees, but she's definitely in the minority).
The thing is, it's not just a gimmick, I really do drink a lot of coffee. Really. Loads. I'm approaching 3 weeks without a cigarette, and I've definitely increased the caffeine by way of compensation.
This week, I definitely drank too much coffee. On Tuesday I drank so much caffeinated joy during the day that I very nearly fainted of dehydration in the evening. I underestimated how little water I'd drunk to compensate before I went to Taekwando, and actually had to go and sit down to stop myself from fainting. I was literally felled by coffee. It didn't exactly help to reinforce the hard-as-nails persona that I was trying to go with...
