Nothing to Do
That's actually a fabrication, I have tons to do and yet I find myself sitting on the couch and watching an E special on Tom Cruise and switching to the food network which is doing an infomercial for the Magic Bullet. That thing rocks. I have found myself nearly dialing the phone to order it several times now, just kidding.
I could be picking up the living room, sewing one of my many projects, reading a book (I just finished the third in the Narnia series) but no I would rather read celebrity gossip on the net and channel surf.
Is it just me or are they cramming Mission Impossible 3 down our throats. Man that movie better pay off. I don't think I'll make it out to the theater, however I would rent it.
I went to pilates class for the first time yesterday and I am paying for it today. Man, it really kicked my tail. I can't wait to go back. I was able to do pretty much everything the class did (mostly out of stubbornness and pride) except the shoulder workout. The exercises we were doing reminded me of the flexed arm hang in school and I hated that one. My arms were shaking and it was pretty pitiful. In the first five minutes when we were balancing on one foot and drawing small circles in the air with our other leg, I knew I was in trouble. It was a great workout though and I wish I could go every other day. I'm going to try to go one evening and one morning a week. I don't really want to miss dinner with the family two nights a week inorder to work out. I want to try to be aware of the message that I send the girls about working out and why we do it. It's to stay healthy and to enjoy ourselves. I really don't want them to get messages about exercising and dieting inorder to lose weight. I'm not a big fan of dieting, it seems to me that it usually just ends up being a cycle of depriving yourself of something and then giving in and having too much. I am no expert though. My point being, I think I would rather have the girls hear about moderation than dieting. We'll see how it goes, it makes me kind of nervous to raise girls in today's society. So much body image stuff out there.
Well that's enough blabbing. I better check and see if the Magic Bullet people have made their alfredo sauce in 6 seconds yet. In just 6 seconds!

That happens to me - they flash Tom Cruise on the screen & I forget what I'm supposed to be doing... Seriously - I saw MI3 this weekend. It was a good action adventure. Particularly interesting since Tom did all his own stunts - jumping off buildings, letting an 18 wheeler roll over him. They tried to make his character personable by adding a wife, but I wouldn't describe their efforts as successful. Plus I'm not a huge action adventure movie fan anyway - I could have waited for the rental to be available and I won't be tempted to buy this one. There's my personal review.
