Magni Prime I only ever read out loud on rare occasions. Once I was reading an excerpt from my best friend, and what was creepy was he had some twins that spoke simultaneously, and we did it without practicing. Tone, inflection, pauses, everything. Sometimes I read aloud to my bf if I want him to hear a certain passage, and I used to read to my little sister a long time ago. I usually end up stuttering on some phrase as some point of time, if I don't read ahead enough, or I get too excited and start reading too fast. Stupid brain to tongue connection, getting all mixed up.

That mostly only happens to me when I'm tired..
But it does happen occasionally. 3nodding
When I'm on caffeine I can do pretty much anything though XD

Wererabbit! wink
I am immune to the effects of caffeine by and large. Too much has been consumed in my life to have much of an impact on my chemistry.

He's a pasty one, isn't he. And ever so sad. And cute, because I can't draw manly men. Or men, in general. XD
I drink a can/bottle of caffeinated soda nearly every morning nowadays. I can't really tell if I'm immune or not though. I used to not drink caffeine very often, so it used to wake me up more than it does now, I suppose.

Reading aloud has become a valued tradition with my bf and I, Terry Pratchett just really lends itself to be read aloud and occasionally we'll pick characters and we each do their voices. It's fun. We read Sabriel (Garth Nix), Hitchhiker's Guide (Douglas Adams of course), Good Omens (Pratchett/Gaiman), and Into the Wild (Krakauer) this summer together it was very nice. Hitchhiker's is REALLY hard to read out loud though cause all the names are hard to pronounce. It's good though, you get to snuggle, it's not as horrible for you as TV, and it occasionally leads to naps.
As for romance novels, it's very important to read the dirty bits out loud.
nice bunneh. 3nodding

Yeah, caffeine does nothing for me anymore, either.

I have a delayed reaction to caffeine. My body must use it slowly or something.

I don't generally notice the effects of caffeine, though it can help me to not be groggy when I've not had much sleep. But I definitely notice if I try to go to sleep at a halfway decent time (read: before 2am) and I've had coffee or the like, full caffeine, after about 5 or 6pm. I can't sleep. I've done this often enough, since I work at a coffee shop. Let me tell you, iced mochas are dangerous. So it's half-caf after 3pm, and full decaf after 5, otherwise I'll be up all night.
Sometimes I read aloud to myself, though much more often I just talk to myself. :3

Goosey dropped weight training because it was providing unneeded stress (both physical, for my knees, and mental), and so now I'm the helper in the school Library 5th hour.
*lets out a sigh*
It rained last night~ heart and it's still mostly overcast.
I think once my twin(non related) goes home, I'll get some RP stuff done...
