Survivor - Mom Edition: Day One - UPDATE

Fatigue is setting in earlier than expected. The day is less than half over. Decaf coffee is not providing enough mental kick. Weighing the pros and cons of scouring the island for caffeine.

Pro: I really, really need caffeine.
Con: Small Native could be up all night.
Pro: But he might not.
Con: But if he is, you’ll be up all night.
Pro: Then I must find enough caffeine to last all night.
Con: Then you will be worse off tomorrow.
Pro: Then I need to find an arsenal of caffeine.
Con: That could endanger Small Native’s health.
Pro: You really think so?
Con: Possibly. And that would certainly disqualify you from this contest.

Con: Try jogging in place to energize yourself.
Pro: HA! And HA!
Con: Jumping jacks?
Pro: I’ll just have one cup.
Con: We both know it’s a gateway cup. 
Pro: There are other forms of caffeine on this island, you know. No one would be the wiser.
Con: Such as?
Pro: It’s just after Halloween! CHOCOLATE!
Con: I can get on board with that.
