Please say something. Say anything.
I'm so bored.
I hate exercising. Hate. I am not someone who ever gets that endorphin rush and that pisses me off.
I wish more people on this board talked politics.
I never click youtube links. Maybe that's why I'm bored.

I also hate it. I do love how I feel when I am done, but years of working out has never caused me to enjoy it while I am actually doing it.
I am having an "I hate my job" month.
I have two kids birthday parties in one day. I seriously know like 3 children. I am not sure how this happens.

For less then ten cents a day, you can feed a hungry child.
You asked for anything...
In an effort to save some money and cut some crap out of my diet, I have been trying to ease up on Diet Coke and wine during the week. I drank way too much vino during the holidays. I was sick last week, so I didn't eat or drink much of anything. This week, now that I feel better, I have been a garbage disposal. I cannot.stop.eating. This really isn't helping anything. I am tempted to abandon my efforts.
Since I haven't exercised in, oh, three years, I have been contemplating getting a workout DVD and doing it after Andy goes to bed. Anybody have any suggestions? I always feel like a dumbass doing it, but I like aerobics. I am tempted to try Zumba, but I fear that the DVDs will have really bad elevator music set to a Latin beat.
You're at, like, the Gas N' Sip on a Saturday night, with no women, anywhere.
It's by choice man.
I hate exercise too. HATE. Never have I felt "great" or invigorated by a workout. My favorite part of having a personal trainer was having his hot self stretching me out after it was done. In yoga (that I took for a hot second), I liked the end when the teacher would come over and rub your head for a few moments. The end. End. End.
Was she serious that she is the 1%? I figured they had their own message boards on thesolidplatinumnest.com or something.

Super random.
I was just walking out of the bathroom. I put my paper towels into the trash can (one of those public restroom type trash cans - small capacity, on the wall). I saw a top to a yogurt container in there. I can't stop wondering WhyTF somebody would need to throw that away in a bathroom. Every option I come up with is gross.
I have class from 4:25-10:10 tonight. And every Wednesday.
I might die.
It smelled like someone in my Admin Law class had a leaky colostomy bag, or perhaps pooped their pants. Or perhaps it was one very long, slowly emitted fart.

I went to a class at the gym on Monday that I actually really liked. It was hard but there were enough 1-2 minute breaks that I was able to not die. I am REALLY sore today though. I can feel every single muscle in my butt and legs. If I don't do some kind of class or group thing then I poop out after about 10 minutes. I can't work out at home, my couch is way too inviting.
My sister and her dude put in an offer on a short sale house. It has a huge master bathroom and two walk in closets that make me GREEN with envy. We have tiny closets and a tiny pink bathroom stuck in the 50's. I hope they get it because they love it but I really really really want a master suite like that one too. *stomps foot and pouts*
I am not in the mood to be cold on my office today so I'm wearing 16 layers.
I wish I still liked to talk politics, but I get so angry and discouraged by the tone politicians take that I tune it out. I watched about 2 minutes of Mittens speaking after the NH primary last night and I could feel my blood boiling so we watched a DVR'd Hoarders instead.
I love exercise and how it makes me feel. It's addictive. I'm so glad I'm back to a routine. I went to the gym at lunch yesterday to lift weights and felt like a rock star the rest of the day.
I only like exercising when I'm in pretty good shape. When I'm squishy and weak, it's miserable. When I'm all muscles I'm like, Nothing can stop meeeeeeee!!
I would talk politics with you. But everything sucks, so I don't know what to say. I might be trying to do a kind of political podcast with a dude friend of mine soon. We'll see where that goes. I'll tell you guys about it if it actually happens.

I have gained 8 lbs in the last 6 weeks. I had a cold that started on Dec 10, and turned into a sinus infection and it's ALMOST gone. But I really wasn't able to work out, and I was napping a lot. And now all these pain meds have me constipated. So I'm hoping 3 lbs of this is poop.
I leave for Puerto Rico in 42 days, and now that I don't have a baby to blame, I don't want to be fat. So I will be busting a move in the gym as soon as I find my motivation. But I'm just soooooo...blah. Oh, and my Adderal has been on backorder for over a month now, so that hasn't helped me either. I find that I work out more often when I'm on the Adderall, because I am focused and more task-oriented during the day, which frees up my evening for the gym.
Wewa really sin't working for me like it did years ago. I'm contemplating finding the old materials and just doing points, not points plus.
I need a new handbag. But I hate to shop
And I don't think you can buy a handbag online, which means I'll have to shop.
I have bought many a handbag online.
I'm going to attempt to leave the house today for a breastfeeding support group. I'm practically giddy. And my nips hurt.

When we produce documents, we "bates label" them (a numbering system to keep track of what is produced - I've been around legal-speak for so long, I have no idea if this is common knowledge or not). I have heard many a time, "I'm/you're a master bater. Ha ha ha." Yeah.
Maybe someone stepped in dog doo? I did that once. The smell followed me and was gross until I figured it out.
This is why I love you. I was going to respond with Phil Collins lyrics.

That's how I was able to maintain function most of last year.
