Can you tell me what the phrase, "Cooking with moon fuel" means?

It's a silly analogy about having momentum based on a similar saying: 'cooking with gas.'

Excellent Alex. Get out of your head and focus on others. It’s amazing how this works. We’re seeing more and more victim mentality being supported by the media giving people the “right” to feel sorry for themselves. Well, go volunteer at a childrens cancer ward, or serve those without a home and you’ll stop thinking you have it so bad. Thanks again for a great read. Gotta go finish my moon fuel.

I loved this! Especially this part - I know that I've been too self-obsessed when I feel a consistent sense of malaise.

That's my problem. Thanks for the solution!
