Not a good balance, wouldn’t you say? It explains a lot, though.

Yes. Yes, it does explain a lot. I’ll work on my positive thinking, Sigmund. Even now, as we speak, I am enjoying a delicious Funfetti cupcake – just mashing it in my piehole, my Funfettihole, just enjoying it. Maybe I’ll write about how much binge eating eases my overwhelming feelings of distress. Would you like that, Sig?

Well I have to say that I highly agree with you regarding unicorns. Writing about them not only alleviates anxiety, but I also heard that when you’re on a certain, err, herbal substance, they actually manifest physically. Or so says “Harold & Kumar”. =P
