1. Reading is my drug of choice.
2. I have found that time on the treadmill goes so much faster if I am wearing earphones and watching Clean Sweep. (Fitness Center has sexy equipment with monitors on every single piece.)
3. I have only ever experienced exercise induced endorphins when swimming. When I was a teenager, I would get up in the morning and swim laps. After a while I would lose track of the number and begin to have some sort of transcendental experience. I felt like I was part of the water which was an extension of the blue, blue sky. Felt like I was swimming in the the sky – very groovy. No, I never took drugs but, on occasion, was sorely tempted. Fortunately opportunity and desire never coincided.

Love the swimming thing. What a great way to start the day that must have been.
“Reading is my drug of choice.” Love it.

I think I am on to something, you comment so readily not so much because you love to blog but because you’re the Edit Police.
I’m watching you sister.

I normally don’t comment on the silly Word Verification letters, but “isgay”? Come on.
And reading’s great, but I’ve been thinking a lot about marijuana lately. ; )

Oh dude, that’s because you stay home with a bunch of little kids. Who doesn’t think about drugs…or our Lord. I mean, that’s what I do, think about Jesus, that is.

HEY, there is a song about that – drugs or Jesus. We all are wanting something more . . . “Reading is my drug of choice” — quote of the day, baby. Great stuff.
Love the blog, Alison, but you must teach yourself about PHOTOS. We want some pictures!
K Murphy J says
While I agree, photos are always cool, I love that you shoot photographs with your words alone. I know I rely on flashy visual rather than content (often), so photos or no, stay true to your writing sister.
