  • Turning in an adaptation to Viz today for a horror book that I don’t think has been announced yet.
  • I’m participating in the Runagogo 100 Mile Challenge. Also participating (I think, eep) in Etta Vendetta & Nikol Lohr‘s Naughty Needles Burlesque show at the Record Bar, February 15th. More details as I have them. (I assure you, I’ll be modeling something relatively demure.)
  • We have recently discovered Dark Chocolate Dipped Altoids and OH HOLY SHIT they’re teh greatest! thing! evah! …Well, I suspect our friend Michael’s Bailey’s Irish Cream Truffles might be actually teh greatest! thing! evah! but at 15 calories for two altoids, the mints in the tin are GUILT FREE.
  • I had more to say but I have to jet. Le sigh. I’ll edit to add later, I guess.

Nature’s Prozac

Dr. Sears Tip:

Exercise is not only nature’s smart drug, it’s also nature’s Prozac. By stimulating the release of endorphins, exercise beefs up the body’s own “feel good” hormones. Endorphins are most stimulated by exercise and laughter. And the good-feeling effects of these hormones last about as long as a pill, four to six hours after exercise, and without the unpleasant medical side effects. Therapists have long prescribed exercise to pull people out of the pits of depression. So, exercise not only burns fat, it burns stress, too.

Got back on the workout horse this morning after an embarrassingly long lay-off.  (There’s one unrecorded run in there between the 4th and the 20th, but as it wasn’t successful enough for me to feel like recording it, I’m not sure it should count.)  I swear to you I could feel extra weight on my hips.  I think I’m retaining water.  I hope I’m retaining water, else I’ve done crazy damage in under 3 weeks.

Confession: I ate an entire tin of anchovies yesterday.  I must be retaining water.
