a day / the day

Could anyone tell me the difference between (a) and (b) if both are possible?

(a) I cannot get through a day without coffee.
(b) I cannot get through the day without coffee.

Thank you in advance.

Anonymous Could anyone tell me the difference between (a) and (b) if both are possible? As a general statement, they are synonymous. B, of course, should be used when referring to a specific day (as today, for instance).
