Happy Thursday. Welcome to another Running with Spoons Thinking Out Loud link party, where stream-of-consciousness is the theme of the day. Thanks to Amanda for hosting.

* You still have a few more days to enter my Redpack giveaway. I’ll announce a winner next Thursday!

*Leave it to Cosmo. But no personality quiz telling me what my whiskey order says about me on a date? how to drink whiskey

(For the record: neat when I’m being myself, rocks if I’m on good behavior in mixed company or it’s hot in the room)

*Every year, the National Eating Disorders Association sponsors a weeklong campaign that works to increase visibility and connect people with resources to address disordered eating and help themselves and their loved ones get the support they need to recover. This year’s campaign runs from February 22-28th. I’ve been blown away by the articulate, moving blog posts and articles I’ve read on the topic this week. I also felt this post does a great job of highlighting the campaign and its importance in increasing awareness of eating disorders and early intervention.

*I’m realizing that the theme of this winter/year for me so far is change. Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes…Pros and cons. Happy Return of Saturn to me. As an incurable optimist, for better or worse, I’m operating under the belief that it’s all eventually going to make sense and things will happen the way they’re supposed to happen. Because the way I cope with anything is to work my butt off, I have tons of things going on in my little mad scientist lab.

*Speaking of, lots of editing and behind-the-scenes tech stuff going on this week. Though my default is to freak out over anything with computers, I am practicing patience.  

* Nothing like a good impulse buy. Easy portion control too. I’m such a nerd that I get excited about new things to share with clients. TJs mini chocolate

What’s on your mind this Thursday?
