I sent it to a different email address - it's the one shown under profile (avatars@buslist.org) so you may want to change that. I didn't get a confirmation email, so that email address must not work?

I think you have good ideas for alternatives. what about something more physical that could help to get your energy out? for instance, tonight i did 6 miles on the eliptical (i ...
