I like big butts

So there's an old episode of Scrubs, where Turk says to JD, "When a black girl asks 'does my butt look big?' you say 'Hell Ya!'" The reasoning being that in the black community, curves are highly prized...and women go out of their way to accentuate them.

Then there's the rest of us, who lament the size of our legs (there's an old blues song that talks about "Big legs, and a tight skirt") and how our butts stick out (I like big butts and i cannot lie)
Just goes to show you the difference between cultures.

What's my point? hmmm. Take a lesson. All women are pretty. it's just a fact of life...

ok. sleepy now. go say "i'm pretty" to yourself. you'll feel better.

Vacation Day

I took a mental health day...so far, it has been lovely! I'm sure it will improve after my coffee and a massage. I have already walked the child to the baby sitter and am enjoying some morning TV.

It's not this part of the day that I found interesting (I want my day to be as uninteresting as possible!)...I was awake from 3am until 5pm. I had to check my bank accounts because I felt broke (thank God I'm not!). And I read up on Medifast. My coworkers are doing this program. The lady who sits next to me is taking in under 900 calories a day. But she's lost 12 pounds this week.

Please tell me that this isn't a safe program. Somebody? Anybody? Otherwise I'm afraid I'll be sucked in and the money will go into the same toilet that the WW@W one went.

The idea of prepackaged meals and only eating liquid-y items (for the most part) all day every day SUCKS! I researched their website and saw that there are other options...like eating one meal w/lean protein and veggies.

I don't want to fall into the "easy" trap again. My mental state always steers me towards the "but if you pay for it, you'll do it" thoughts. Instead, I sooooo need to get into the "if you commit to it, you'll do it" mentality. At this point I'm painfully fat and am still not ready to have another child (mentally I'm ready; physically I'm afraid it would kill me).

Okay, that was my brain puking on the blog. Maybe I'll sleep better tonight!!! For now, I'm off for my massage.
