This is Me on Coffee

I am generally known for being somewhat slow of tongue. I take my time with thoughts and words. My speech is often accompanied by its fair share of verbal pauses, which are tools I use in order to ensure that the next word is the one I really want.

However . . .

There are definitely plenty of times where I get a little quicker . It usually happens when I have a buncha coffee and I get all worked up about something I'm excited about and I can actually talk somebody's head off for awhile until they start to wonder when I might stop because I'm not really giving them a chance to speak or ask questions, so all of a sudden the conversation ends up being pretty one-sided and then I have this "Aha" moment where I'm like, "Whoa, I've been going on for quite a while here and I'm starting to run out of breath," so I just try to hurry up and finish my thought and then stop.
