December 6: The Best News Ever
From Slate:
A study says people who have one alcoholic drink a day are 54 percent less obesity-prone than teetotalers are. (But those with four or more drinks a day are 46 percent more obesity-prone.) Another study indicates that among people who weigh too much or drink too much alcohol, those who drink more than two cups of coffee a day are only half as prone to chronic liver disease. Each study involved more than 8,000 people.

It's really, really cold here. Like, when you get dressed for work, it's 6. Six degrees of frigidation. Normally I like it to be REALLY cold if it's going to be cold, but dang. It's barely December. I think it's because we went straight from daily highs of 70 to daily highs of 15. On the other hand, it keeps snowing, and it's almost like those winters when we were kids and it snowed so much. What is going on in the universe, that the sun is turning mean on you and the cold is turning mean on me?

that's nice.
well, the things you love can't always love you back. the universe is wise in its fickleness. it's ok. im still a fan of the sun. not digging the combo of my bc and the sun, but still dig a fan of the sun. and, i think you are still a fan of the cold. but only crazy folk are fans of the bitter, bitter, endless, unescapeable cold. and yer just not crazy in that way.
maybe its just trying to help you in yer attempts to be in the moment. i know it's hard as hell to think too much about later or before when yer freezing yer ass off right now. forces the awareness of the moment, it does.
ah, winter.
ohm.
