fat man walking

Hormones, medications, and stress? That, my friends, is a recipe for disaster. Today at work I am reading a news story on the BBC website (http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/4818036.stm) and I almost start crying.

Right.

I am reading about a fat man walking across the US. Yes, his story is inspiring. Yes, it is pretty cool. Is it “cry-worthy?” Apparently.

Depression medications do strange things to your body. I itch. I sweat. I feel nauseated. I am irritable. Add hormones to THAT mix. (stupid T.O. M.) Mix in a pinch of house-buying stress.

Sucker, you're goin' down!

Fat man walking across America? You've got my respect. You've also got my tears. Please keep them.
