Caffeination

I worked a shift at the Osseo Junior High School pool this evening. It's not my favorite job since its a number of uninterrupted hours of sitting in the same chair watching swimming lessons, but tonight was at least made interesting by one of the assistant instructors. When I arrived she was conversing with her co-workers:

AMY: So, I had six Mountain Dews and two Caribou Coffees.
KYLE: All today?
AMY: Yeah. I'm so wired, but I think its wearing off. I'm just happy I'm not pregnant.

A few hours later, Amy walked by my stand.

JAMES: How's your caffeine fix holding up?
AMY: It's pretty much gone. I'm so tired.
JAMES: At least you'll sleep well tonight.
AMY: I won't though.
JAMES: Why not?
AMY: I'm afraid of the dark.
JAMES: That'll do it.
