I wish my ungrateful metabolism would get its butt in gear and actually do something to HEAT the body it's living in. (brrr)


Commentary
Way back when I was still drawing Redwall art on a fairly regular basis, my favourite drawing was one I did of Tsarmina, the wildcat queen. I tried resurrecting it but alas, I failed... Heh, can you tell I worked on Silverwing? The guy on the first page is an attempt at a caricature from memory of someone I see in the congregation all the time at church. He turned out looking far more Lupiny than he does in real life. Such an interesting face, though. Once he caught me staring at him. If you're reading this, I'm sorry! Your face is just far more interesting than the homily!

i wonder which side of the family is to blame for the motabolisam curse? I have my bet on dad's. I hate the curseyness! I think it's to blame for a lot of these. . . lack of energy. . . lack of heat. . . lack of being able to burn ANY fat. . .

You blame ... dad's side of the family for the genetic legacy of
surviving long harsh winters on not much food far from civilisation?
Have you met any of our relatives?

No, but look at his side fo the family compared to moms. When mom was close to our age she was a bean pole. Even now she seems to be able to lose weight pretty easily. Where on dad's side . . . not so much.

I have a very fast metabolism but my circulation is shot. I go to sleep wearing a long Victorian cotton thing, pyjama bottoms, two pairs of socks, a wool fleece and then I curl up under *goes to count*... six blankets and still cannot sleep for the first hour because I am freezing.

Indeed, at an energy exhibition in the Millennium Dome there was a gigantic floor mat people would walk upon. The mat would reflect the body heat of people walking by on a wall display (Don't ask me. I lack any technical genius.) - white for heat, black for inanimate objects. I came out slate grey.

Paul did exclaim, "Sweet pea! You're dead!"

Odd thing the human corpse.. er. Body.
