31 CHEERS!!!

Success!!! I officially completed my 31 day challenge to exercise daily! My reward??? Taking a day off tomorrow to call the masseuse!

BTW-do ya'll remember the jazzercise classes of the early 80's? Leotards and leg warmers and fat braided headbands? And the moms all strapped up to the fat shaker machine??? Those were the days!

The Cock Crows

The Year Of The Rooster
1921, 1933, 1945, 1957, 1969, 1981, 1993, 2005
People born in the Year of the Rooster are deep thinkers, capable, and talented. They like to be busy and are devoted beyond their capabilities and are deeply disappointed if they fail. People born in the Rooster Year are often a bit eccentric, and often have rather difficult relationship with others, yet they are intensely loyal and despise dishonesty. They always think they are right and usually are! They frequently are loners and though they give the outward impression of being extroverted and adventurous, they are timid. Rooster people's emotions like their fortunes, swing very high to very low. They can be selfish and too outspoken, but are always interesting and can be extremely brave. They are most compatible with Ox, Snake, and Dragon.

According to the Chinese calendar, the rooster is my animal zodiac. And after reading my personality break down, I am a little nervous about the Chinese. How is it that they know all this stuff?!?! And it's ALWAYS right...?!? And btw-the rabbit is my MORTAL enemy. I will be keeping a close eye on my "friends" now that I know this...

For a little Chinese calendar fun, check out this site (copy/paste into browser) to find your animal zodiac. Be sure to post your animal in the comments section. I just hope we're compatible... So reveal yourselves(rabbits)!

Sexual Harrassment in the Workplace

Mr B has been sexually harrassing me in the kitchen while I am scrubbing the pots and pans. He assures me that one of these days when he is dead that I am actually going to miss this behavior. Maybe he ought not to make such claims while I have a sudsy grip on the iron skillet...

Recipe

Snow Day Recipe:

1. ignore 12 loads of laundry while wearing as a little as possible
2. consider grading some papers to get caught up-and never think of it again
3. put on a pot of coffee that stays on the entire day
4. cell phone in the pocket for random snow giddiness texting
5. get on the couch with a trashy novel knowing you have two more lined up behind it
6. any kid who knocks on the door can come in-no questions asked
7. allow kids to wear anything they want in the snow without making a single suggestion or fussing about all the wet clothes that pile up in the hallway after 9 trips in and out (it's not like you're gonna do laundry anyway...)
8. top it all off with a celeb magazine that headlines a major break-up, a Bruce Willis movie, and a hot bubble bath

Voila!!! Best served chilled in front of the fireplace!

Non Sequitors

In other words: Random Stuff

I was actually giddy a few days ago when the Brangelina rumor of a break up was reported from the UK. I've actually been feeling a little down since it didn't go down as speculated. But I still have faith. Because I believe everything the STAR says. Really. In for a penny, in for a pound...

Made one of the best lasagnas of my life on Wednesday night. It was so good that Mr B nearly proposed to me again. I swear it's the cottage cheese filling, people. Ricotta cannot even compete.

I am nearing the end of my 31 day walking challenge and so far so good. But here's the bad news: I still don't like it. But I'm glad I did it. Why does being healthy have to be so tedious???

S*N*O*W DAY ON FRIDAY!!! Being a winter time pagan is paying off. Snow ritual: jammies on inside outwards, ice cube flushed down the potty, and a spoon under the pillow. The 7 year old crowd swears by it.

Pillow-Mania

New House Rule: If you disrespect the throw pillows, you will get a punishment. And you will not like it. So watch it...Buster.
