getting extra endorphins today

Here's some notes from Oct. 31. I was drinking a Christmas blend coffee at Starbucks. They had Christmas blend in place of the house blend. How can they NOT have the house blend available? Doesn't that go against all the rules? I think so.



Note these pointers for getting more endorphins into your brain. You'll notice in the things to avoid list, "sad cartoons." This is because I bought a DVD of some very old cartoons, Max Fleischer's Color Classics. And I have never seen so much tragedy in cartoons before. Kids those days must have had a lot of nightmares after watching these. The characters tend to be poor orphans, or cute baby animals that end up dying somehow. There are happy endings, but not without a whole lot of crying first.

Today I decided to scrap a bunch of house cleaning plans, and took Skippy to the park. We finally got some sunlight today. A perfect opportunity to get some more endorphins into my brain.

ha ha, well, I got him a harness that the seatbelt slides into to hold him in place, but he would not tolerate it. I do tie his leash to the seat and clip it into his harness. At least he doesn't fly onto the floor if I hit the brakes.

Um, hello? Where is the chocolate section on your brain. There must be a chocolate section. Or maybe a Kukuruznye Palochky section....which would be good because you should be getting some in the mail very soon. Just a hunch

I was hoping to get more stuff in the box, but alas I didn't want anything to be stale. ~blechy~ Cant have stale chips. At least they aren't the Lord's CHIPS!!

If I had a dog like that I would name him "Batman"..

emma, there is a chocolate section. I just forgot to sketch that in there. Today I got my favorite, it's that "save the animals" chocolate, dark with cranberries and almonds.

uncle joe, I should have known you 6 years ago when I was trying to name Skippy! I had all kinds of creative names, but then he just looked like a little Skippy.

This is totally off the subject, but it reminded me of what Carly used to call "little people" when she was little: "dorfins".

Glad you and Skippy got some "sundorphin therapy"

Sounds like a simply perfect day ... you, Skippy and sunshine.
Hope you have a fabulous week.
Take care, Meow
