Nice to meet you too, Razzle!!
I know what you mean about the automoton! I always say, "Well, my mouth wants it but my head doesn't." I obviously have a dominant mouth because it usually wins out!!
I knew there was something wrong, and that all my bad choices were catching up with me, when I looked in the mirror and dubbed myself, "Cheeks Malone"!! "Ok head, man the troops and shut that mouth down!!"
Now that I think, I was really inspired the other day when I was watching this story about this young girl who had lost her legs from the knee down. She was running track, racing along on these metal pieces strapped to her thighs, and smiling as the wind whipped thru her hair and I couldn't help but think, "that girl knows how to live." What is keeping me from the pleasure of my own freedom?
I figured it out. It was me.
There it was, so I kicked that automoton to the curb!!

Sunshine Smiles!!
