Last night we heard a very interesting speaker and I feel like I have identified one of my problems...I'm addicted to dopamine.
What you may ask? Well it goes like this...
1. Dopamine is released naturally whenever you experience anything pleasant.
2. I'm a very cheerful person and find almost everything pleasant. Therefore I smile a lot, which releases dopamine.
3. Hence I conclude that I must be cheerful in order to get my regular dose of dopamine to which I am addicted.
There...how's that for logic? No need for external substances to give me my fix, I can just smile and that will do the job nicely.
Humm...I wonder if that would be a drug treatment method? Make the recovering addicts smile and laugh a lot.

I think you should probably go in for therapy.
Becky needs some, too--she's getting positively dangerous around used bookstores.
She's GETTING dangerous around used bookstores?!? I'd give her a solid "dangerous" rating as of a couple of years ago. :-)
