Firefly squid

Watasenia possesses numerous (~800), minute dermal light organs (photophores) on its ventral side. Other organs are scattered over the head, funnel, mantle, and arms, but none is found on its dorsal side. There are five prominent organs beneath the lower margin of each eye. They all emit a bluish light. A cluster of three tiny black-colored organs (<l mm diam) is located at the tip of each of the fourth pair of arms. They emit brilliant flashes of light which are clearly visible to the unaided eye even in a lighted room. Some of the flashes have a cadence resembling that of a terrestrial firefly flashing at night, and thus the squid is known in Japan as the "firefly squid" or "hotaru-ika."

Gronk?

I'm 99% sure that if you don't know if you're gronked or not, you most certainly are.

Maybe more coffee help? Yes, coffee. Coffee good.

...am not convinced am spelling 'coffee' correctly. Bad sign?

That depends if you're looking for a sign that you're gronked or not. If you are, than it's a good sign.

I am not gronked for the first time this week - before last night, I think I had a total of 6 hours sleep since Monday - but still fighting off an annoying little bug.

I'm surely gronked. Thank the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. that I don't have to go to work on Monday. Every single day of this week has been a great struggle to get out of bed.

Howdy, folks.

Jogging your way to saggy breasts

Millions of women may be jogging their way to sagging breasts as they set off on New Year fitness regimes without suitable bras, research suggests.

Some 9.5 million British women could be irreversibly damaging their busts by exercising without a proper sports bra, the Portsmouth University team said.

They found breasts moved in a 3D figure of eight and that uncontrolled movement strained fragile tissues and ligaments.

The study suggested as a woman runs a mile, her breasts bounced 135 meters.

The report found each breast moved independently of the body by an average of 9cm for every step taken on the treadmill.

The study was funded by a sports bra manufacturer.

A little late, but after Ellie was born, I had the most amazing high. It was so far beyond when I finished the marathon. I think I talked non-stop for about 7 hours to anyone who would listen. The pictures show how exhausted I was, but I couldn't feel it. That feeling made such an impression on me that I made an LJ entry about it somewhere around 6 months after Ellie was born.

I am now earwormed by Interjections!

Conjunction Junction would probably take care of that.
