Wait a sec, is consuming dairy good or bad for you? Do you cut it out when you want to get healthy, or add more in?

Strange, that bad mood of yours won’t disintegrate with someone shaking you and shouting “Snap out of it!” That alllllways does the trick.

It’s not that you don’t love the people calling you (unless you’re solely receiving spam calls), it’s just that you’d rather be with them.

And sometimes (okay, a lot of the time) you just need time to recharge by yourself. Why does that feel so wrong sometimes?

When the publishing industry gets it right, it needs to be celebrated, especially in a time like this.
