Real Life Conversation

Yesterday, at the wonderful cafeteria run by Dammy's workplace, contemplating the Reese's Peanut Butter Pie/Cake thingamajiggy:

Dammy: "I want to experiment. Let's eat the pie today and see if our weight goes up tomorrow."
(note: the day before we had had burgers, fries, and the same kind of pie and our weight had gone down)
Me: "Um, okay." (note: who can resist Reese's? I sure can't.)

Today, after the weighing:

Me: "I'm up a pound."
Dammy: "Yeah, that experiment didn't work."

mmmmm.... reese's pie. you have to indulge yourself in the wonderful things such as pie every once in awhile. depriving yourself from such is not good for America. If you don't eat that pie, Reese's looses money. If they do that, they'll have to fire the pie makers. Then that leads to unemployment rates because who wants to hire pie makers whose pies are not good enough to eat. so that family has to go on welfare which means the g'ment has to increase taxes to pay for the more people on welfare. this causes me not to spend money because i need to pay taxes. the economy is going downhill! so we either need to let that pie maker starve or we need to eat more pie. :)

Remember, one sample set is not conclusive enough to exclude other factors.

I say, eat Reese's pie every day for a month, THEN evaluate.

It's better to ask for forgiveness than permission....

“I get the Reese's candy bar, If you read it, there's an apostrophe. The candy bar is his.

I didn't know that. Next time your eating a Reese's and some guy named Reese comes up to you and says let me have that. You better give it to him. I'm sorry Reece, I didn't think I would ever run into you.”

INSANITY. Day 2.

My thoughts on the Plyometric Cardio Circuit? My floor has never looked so appealing. And I never thought I'd be one of the "yellers." In exercise lingo (not another lingo!:) that means you yell when things get hard. Oh bother. Another pun. Anyway, Shaun T's Basketball Drills had me yelling. And grunting as good as those humongo body builders do. And as good as Tim the Tool Man Taylor:) Damm's thoughts were that he didn't push as hard as he could've BUT this time he was standing at the end of the workout. And as soon as he actually sat down he couldn't get back up:) We aren't going to change what we eat yet. We were already ingesting good-for-you foods. According to the caloric needs calculater Damm should be eating around 3,000 calories working out 6 days a week and I should be at 2,400. I'm already at 2,000-2,200 because I'm still the main food source of the Little Man. Not sure where Damm falls on the calorie count. Anyway, not upping ou...

The Cat is Out of the Bag

I wonder where that expression comes from? There is this fabulous book that can tell you, only I forgot the name of it. Next time I come across it I think I'm going to have to buy it. Anyway. I was going to wait. A long time. Maybe forever. I don't like people coming up and hugging me, smiling and saying congratulations, or asking me questions. But Damm was talking to his recruiter about insurance. And he mentioned something that he should've told the recruiter was non-repeatable, because 5 minutes later the recruiter told Damm's mother (I have no earthly idea why he's talking to her-I keep forgetting to ask). After that I had to tell my mother. We haven't told any extended family members because there are quite a few here celebrating Damm's mother's graduation and that would be the worst form of torture I can imagine. So yeah, I'm knocked up again :P And this time I'm getting the t-shirt. "It" is due August 11. I have not been to a doc...

Pedestels

Me and someone had an interesting conversation yesterday. Prompting this short question post: Who do you put on a pedestel? Who do you look down on? Don't answer either of these please. I don't really want to know. I just did a personal inventory and realized there are an awful lot of people that I either elevate or disparage for reasons that are not really valid reasons. I know there are people I've thought horrible things about who were really just normal regular joes who were smart in other areas but inexperianced in the arena I knew them in. I know there are people I've thought of as amazing self assured genius specimens of physical perfection....who were really insecure, incompetant, losers who wanted more from life. Anways this is just serious thoughts from the Orc.
