Hot and Sticky...

Okay, I absolutely adore Krispy Kreme Doughnuts. Seriously though...who doesn't? Ok so the Dunkin Dougnut folks probably not so much. But to them I say, "where's your HOT DOUGHNUTS NOW" sign? That little bit of illumination has made more than one person bust a u-E (that's u-turn for those of you who aren't in the know, lol) in the middle of the street. But after ordering my most recent box (hey, it was to support the schools and you know I'm about supporting education SMILE) - I noticed that the FUND Raising logo was on the front of the box. I was thinking, is this supposed to incite folks to buy a box? Or maybe it's that 0 grams trans fat sticker on the box? That's it, right?? Guilt-free doughnuts?? That's the excuse I'm using for eating these delicious, sweet circles of goodness. Hmm, upon closer inspection, the sticker says "per serving". Wonder what constitutes a serving? According to the box, it's ONE doughnut?! I ne...

Laughter Is Good For You

This is one of those great ones that you receive via email. The subject line was "too good not to share". They were absolutely right! So, I am sharing it AGAIN!  Jane and Arlene are outside their nursing home, having a drink and a smoke, when it starts to rain. Jane pulls out a condom, cuts off the end, puts   i t over her cigarette, and continues smoking. Arlene: What in the hell is that? Jane: A condom. This way my cigarette doesn't get wet. Arlene: Where did you get it? Jane: You can get them at any drugstore. The next day, Arlene hobbles herself into the local drugstore and announces to the pharmacist that she wants a box of condoms. The pharmacist, obviously embarrassed, looks at her kind of strangely (she is after all, over 80 years of age), but very delicately asks what brand of condom she prefers. "Doesn't matter love, as long as it fits on a Camel!!" The pharmacist fainted!!

Why?

...are these two sitting together? I'm just saying... ...is this sometimes my go-to energy boost? Sometimes this is the only thing that gets me through class and work.

Looking For A Few Dumbbells

Okay, it's time for a change! No, I'm not moving...yet. I'm talking about fitness level-wise. For those of you who don't already know - I used to be heavily into bodybuilding. How serious? Well let's put it this way, I didn't compete but I was very very close. Then my gym closed and completely uprooted my workout schedule My plan is to go back to that mindset. One barrier to my plan is not having a gym membership. At one point, I was in the gym 5 days a week - faithfully. I had my workout split down to a science. I was all about it! Especially free weights. Most often, it would be me and a bunch of muscle bound guys in the "pit" with the weights. Admittedly, they looked at me like I was crazy at first. But after they saw me sling a few weights and complete some reps, most of them were convinced. I think the rest of them were won over when I had to wait on them to free up the weights they were using. Or better still, I would bypass their weights and m...

Heed this advice, Ladies!!

Okay, so I got this email a little while ago and just had to share. "One of the female ministers in the church offered the following information to the women's group... While waiting on your Boaz, don't settle for any of these relatives...Brokeaz, Poaz, Lyingaz, Cheatingaz, Dumbaz, Downlowaz, Fakeaz, Cryingaz, Lockedupaz, Goodfornothingaz, Lazyaz, and especially his third distant cousin, Beatyoaz. Please, please, please wait on your Boaz!" He also needs to respect yoaz!!  Amen!
