I enjoy the little pick me up and brain awakening I get from it in the morning, but if I don't get my cup, its not the end of the world. I have found that I can take or leave caffeine.

I think you brought up a good point that we may miss drinking coffee just from a difference in our routine. This is where a coffee substitute such as decaf, green tea, or herbal drinks might be helpful. MK, thanks for the link to your site. Your caffeine quiz is very informative. I found it interesting that 200 milligrams/day of caffeine seems to be the addiction trigger for many people. It only takes one large Starbucks coffee to reach that amount. Yikes!

Typically my only caffeine comes from two very small (4-6 oz) cups of coffee per day---one in the morning, and one in the afternoon, both sipped slowly and adulterated with milk (but not sugar---why add a sugar rush to the caffeine issue?). On those occasions when I don't have my coffee I miss it on a sort of nostalgic level, but I don't feel negative physical effects. It's a very individual thing, though, and some folks really don't tolerate it at all. I think it's wise to check your own tolerance. I just keep my caffeine consumption very low.
