Protip
The point of working out is to push yourself at least somewhat. If you are having a full phone conversation easily while on the machine, WORK OUT HARDER.
Folks remind me of the daegu housewives.

Take a moment to give someone a sincere, and not creepy, compliment today. If they are weird about it, that’s their problem. You just might brighten up someone’s day.
I said not creepy. And don’t fucking stare. But smile.
Warning: trivial thought
I really like a good ab workout.

Mini-informed
As many of you know, my computer is in the shop.
So, until I get it back, I will be posting my entries on tumblr.
I will tag you in the link below the status.
So here’s today’s.
Can you think of the day when everything was going wrong and the words or actions of a stranger served to cheer you up?
On sunday, I found out my computer was broken, and that I wouldn’t get it...

Unlike the emmys or grammys, the oscars do not exist in a vacuum. There are surprises, and shocks, but the writing has been on the wall 4 months.
If you have been sitting around hoping that alan rickman would get nominated for playing snape that’s your fault for wasting your damn time. (He was great, but stop dreaming.)
I rarely agree with the best picture winner, but getting up in arms...

Man they are pumping these keith hernandez gold commercials constantly.
Just fyi
SVU is on until 11 pm.
So, make a note of it.
I love sunday cable marathons.

Airport massage?
Perfect time-killer.
Woke up stressed today for some reason. Not sure why, life is good aside from dating. (And you know when I manage to figure that part out something else will fail. Heh.)

‘On one occasion, this female (chimp) reached back to grasp the thrusting hand of the experimenter and tried to force it more deeply into her vagina.’
Male chimps are even shittier than male humans: they last five seconds. If they could last five more seconds, their ladies would manage to get off. Too bad.

OH Doctor
I have a sore bottom!

We’re doing body parts today.
Only a matter of time before butts and diarrhea came up. (No, it wasn’t my fault!!)

Mindset I do not understand
‘This paper is SO HARD to flip through. I think I’ll fill my mouth with an ungodly number of germs just to get it moving instead of just, um, trying harder.’
People are lazy and gross.

The ads for “Contraband” are getting so desperate they have convinced themselves that the reason no one wants to see that stupid movie is because they’re confused about where they might have seen the lead before.

Good Idea, Bad Idea
Like Animaniacs.
Good Idea: Who should play Thatcher? Streep!
Bad Idea: Who should direct the movie? The director of Mamma Mia!

I’ve been told several of these and I had no idea they were all basically of racist or classist origin (and the tellers were not doing so on purpose).

Dramatizations
Watching a stupid conspiracy show.
They mention a guy who was hanged in the 1890s and then show a guy hanging from a bridge. Screen says, “Dramatization.”
WHAT!?!?!? YOU MEAN IT’S NOT DOCUMENTARY FOOTAGE FROM THE 1890S?
Stupid commercial currently on the air where a truck snowboards. Screen says, “Dramatization. Trucks cannot snowboard.”

Bad
You know, you tell yourself you’re a good person and that you treat people well, but when confronted with the fact that you’ve done folks wrong, you feel a sort of cognitive dissonance (good person/bad things, what?).
But sometimes good people do bad.
And some people are bad.
I’d like to believe I’m in the former group - but sometimes I wonder.
