How to Defend Your Coffee Habit:
This is why we start drinking coffee in the first place, right? I started binge drinking coffee in order to stay up all night working on various projects, though it didn’t take long for coffee consumption to become a hobby in its own right.
Drinking coffee improves your concentration, alertness and staves off a tired mind. For me, work comes to a halt when I’m missing any of the above, especially concentration or alertness. Ten or twenty minutes after a cup of coffee, I can be back to work for a few more hours.

I’m not sure what my #1 vice is.
It has taken me hours to write a single page.

Yeah but Marty’s number one vice is good for his heart because his number one vice is Shannon. Except she’s not a vice, unless she’s a vice squad member but I think she would have to feather her hair or something and definitely wear more pastels and carry a gun in a shoulder holster or something.
I think I had too much coffee this morning.
