it's not a nightmare- it's REAL!

you can now go on a celebrity cruise with kate gosselin! yes, you can! this just blows my mind, because i know that somehow, this will end with us wrestling on the lido deck and i push her over board.

at first, i thought the kids would be there. can you imagine the kind of perverts who would love to get the tups out to sea into international waters? so i was happy to see it's just her. not the kids too. it's not like i hope the boat sinks like the titanic or anything, but damn, a week with kate gosselin? this sounds like something you do if you are in jail and want your sentence reduced. or you have a rebellious teen who won't listen to reason. just send her to sea for a week with kate! i bet she comes off the boat and hugs you. she may need therapy though.

i really shouldn't talk bad about her, no one is clamoring to go on a cruise with me either.

i bet the food is really is really crappy and they have exercise sessions all the time. or motivational walks. i think i would just jump overboard and kill myself instead.

bucking the trend

i know it's the trend for bloggers to write new year's resolutions, but i think that i will list my new year's suggestions instead. these are a bit looser and a bit less structured. there is no penalty, nothing to break. here goes:


  • stop buying stuff i don't need
  • stop feeling guilty when i buy things i do need
  • get rid of the hoard of crap in the garage
  • stop bringing crap home
  • say no sometimes
  • say yes sometimes
  • eat healthier
  • exercise more
  • eat less
  • feed your brain


 think that's enough for now. feel free to adopt these no-fail new year's suggestions. print it out, and post it on your refrigerator or thumbtack it up in your cubicle. pick pretty paper. choose a font you like. pretty it up. heck, get it tattooed on your behind, i don't care. just do it. i think it will make you feel better.

i need a name for it. how about "10 e-z steps to a new me"? okay, we'll go with that for now.

i am also going back to not having drinks with meals. i mean, no cokes, no tea. i don't drink alcohol that often but it's always at home- it's cheaper to buy your own liquor and i don't have to tip the bartender! but sodas and such are $1.50-$2.50 each. i can buy a couple of 2 liters for that price. it's back to water for me. this year i am going to put the money in a bank and save it. for what, i don't know. i'm sure i'll find something to spend it on. i don't eat out often, just once every two weeks or so. it's so much cheaper to cook.

i hope you had a great celebration last night. i was in bed at 11, then the neighbor boy starting shooting off fireworks at 11:45. i didn't go back to sleep until almost 1. oh well, who can complain about beautiful fireworks?
