If you give a Joshua a cookie

[pbray]

If you're going to Readercon and you see Joshua Palmatier (jpsorrow), would you hand him a cookie? Or, better yet, ask him if he's had his daily meal yet?

He has a tendency not to eat when he's at cons, unless someone is there to remind him that there's more to life than candy bars and alcohol.

:) I'll do what I can.

Thanks, I knew I could count on you!

(Just ask him what happened at Balticon, the night he went drinking only to eventually realize that he'd forgotten to eat that day....)

I have this problem all the time!

I get busy and I forget to eat. Right up until I pass out due to low blood sugar.

Uh-oh. I'll have to make sure I have snacks on hand, just in case.

:-( Not a good thing.

I get bitchy when I don't eat. Really, really, bitchy. I've learned it's best to have regular meals and make sure the midday meal has protein in it.

I'll nag at him, too. I generally have water and snacks about my person anyways; I'd already noted this tendency of his at Balticon.

Thanks! I'm bummed that I'm not going to Readercon, but the new job makes taking vacation at the beginning of the month problematic. And I can use the time to work on the book that's due later this summer.

oh dear, its not like he has a lot of body fat (that I can tell anyway) to live on...

This weekend he was trying to convince me that he was "fat" and needed to lose a few pounds.

poor man. he is obviously suffering from delusions caused from writing stress.
