About a month ago, I got dumped at the Trappe Tavern. A note: Fellas, don’t bring someone to a place that serves a menu of mostly fried foods to dump them, especially when said place is where most of the podunk retards from your high school go to rub against one another. It’s just disrespectful. Let’s just call the guy XX, because he’s obviously a turd for letting go of someone so amazing. Anywho, since XX dumped me, I’ve embarked on a wonderful albeit painful path in terms of dealing with all the crappy things in my life that I have tried to ignore for over 10 years. Therapy, yoga (which is so amazingly wonderful I can’t even begin to express it) and of course chocolate!!!
Since I work at a chocolate factory, I am surrounded by chocolate all the time. I’ve always loved eating chocolate and the more I learn about it, the more I like it. There’s a rumor going around that chocolate makes you happy. Totally true. There’s a chemical naturally found in chocolate called phenylethylamine or PEA that is also found in the brain, which releases dopamine and peaks during orgasm. It also contains a cannabinoid compound called anandamine, but you can’t actually get high from eating chocolate (unfortunately). It has many other compounds that studies show are “feel-good” components. So, eating chocolate actually does lift your spirits. And don’t feel bad about the fat, it actually lowers bad cholesterol while raising good cholesterol. Of course, the darker the chocolate, the better for you it is. There are so many other health benefits, which I will divulge some other time. For now, eat chocolate, do yoga, and be merry!
