Are you an info-addict?

I am.

It would seem some research at USC concludes that the brain releases opioids when acquiring new information. That in effect, our desire to endlessly click on links and read posts about seemingly random topics just makes us feel good.

The article likens this effect to a cat chasing the light of a laser pointer.

And the saddest thing of all?

It felt good reading the article...

Whats an info addict to do?

Focus.

Maybe the Universe is trying to help me focus and get work done. Okay. I'm closing the browser after this.

Hey, how did the light get over there!

And for the record, the next pie I make will be Blackberry with a splash of Kirschwasser (which means cheery water in German, and is alcoholic). So we're voting for the next next pie I make. And you know what? I'll make it for friday. And you know what else, everyone has to try ONE bite, doesn't matter how small...you've got to try one f'ing bite. Everyone. Period.

How about them [blackberries | blueberries | pumpkins | peaches]?
