Yesterday, a girl that I work with and I decided to go see this personal trainer guy.  I had seen his postcard at The Atlanta Bread Company and picked one up.  He was offering a bunch of evaluations and sessions to get people in the door, so we went.  We had to get weighed and measured and then go through and evaluation involving situps, pushups and working out on a stepper.

Today, I cannot move.  I cannot laugh too hard, I cannot lift my arms over my head, I can not bend down to pick things up - NOTHING.  I ran a damn red light today, because I knew if I tried to stop for it, it would hurt me somehow, somewhere.  And this is just from the evaluation.  We get 10 more sessions with him, and I am not going to lie, I am a little bit scared.  He is an ex-drill sergeant and he apparently likes inflicting pain!

Last night I watched An American Haunting, which is based on true events validated by the State of Tennessee of the only case in US History where a spirit or entity caused the death of a man.  It was so-so.  There was sort of a twist at the end that made you sit there and say WTF?  What just happened here? 

Kaiden really wanted to watch it and I told her no and that she needed to go upstairs and get ready for bed, but she kept begging to watch:

KAIDEN: Mommy, PLEASE can I stay down here with you and Kelly and watch.

MOMMY: No Kaiden, Upstairs!!  This movie will give you nightmares!!!

KAIDEN: That will only be for like two weeks mommy, then it will be done and I will be fine!

She knows it all!!!

You guys know how fond I am of the illustrious K-Fed.  His talent cannot be hidden, but unfortunately there are others out there that do not share my opinion of him (K-Fed and I call them “the haters”).  His concert this past weekend at Webster Hall only had 300 fans (of a possible 1500) show up.  He reportedly had to delay his show almost three hours trying to wait it out and give the fans that may have been running late the chance to show up.  He truly is a thoughtful guy.

But now I fear that his big concert debut here is in jeopardy and Dena and I were planning on going.  Why is it in jeopardy?  Because apparently Brittney filed for divorce today.  DAMMIT Brittney, couldn’t you have waited a few more days to file so that the good people of Norfolk and Virginia Beach would not miss out on this ONCE IN A LIFETIME concert event?  I mean seriously…who wants to miss K-Fed at The NorVa (which like Webster Hall also has a capacity of 1500 average-sized people)?  To be able to say that you were one of the 97 that showed up - it is a memory that would last a lifetime, and at only $12.00 per ticket, a cheap memory at that!!!

Now what am I going to do Sunday night if he cancels because of his upcoming divorce?

I have felt the tickle in my throat all week, but just thought I was getting a head cold, until yesterday.  I could barely get out of bed, my throat was hurting, but I managed to get up and make it into work.  I lasted until 2:00, which is when the fever was getting to the point that it was unbearable.  I was sitting at my desk shivering like it was 20 below zero in there.  I didn’t sleep worth a damn last night and this morning, I could not swallow at all, so I put on a bra and my flip flops and dragged my ass up to the doc-in-the-box.

Twenty minutes and fifty dollars later - it is confirmed, I have strep throat!!!  I have been laying in bed/sleeping all damn day and I still feel like shit, but I am also restless as hell.  I have to take amoxicillan three times a day for ten days - it amazes me that they give you pills when you quite obviously cannot swallow.  Well, now I can say I got up and did something…I am going to go lay back down again.

Tonight on NBC is the Premier of 30 Rock and Twenty Good Years.  Both promise to be great new comedys and they are definitely NOT reality shows, which makes them all that much better!!!  So, are you watching tonight?  Are you?

On a totally different subject, I think someone left me a shitty comment.  Go look at the “Goddammit” post and read the last comment and give me your opinion, shitty or not?  I think I detect a tone, but I could be wrong.

Dena and I had the wonderful opportunity to spend an afternoon at Chuck E. Cheese’s yesterday for a birthday party that Ethan and Kaiden were invited to - we were psyched and pumped to go ( I am being completely facetious here)!  While sitting at the table talking to each other, a woman decided to stand right near us so that her and her daughter could get a better view of the Chuck E. Cheese stage and all the top notch entertainment going on up their.  She made it extremely difficult to concentrate on my conversation w/ Dena.  She was wearing a pair of jeans that were about two sizes too small and a “belly” shirt, that barely covered the bottom of her bra.  So of course, I have to interrupt Dena with an “okay take a look - 12:00 and let me know how you feel about what you see,” to which Dena replies, “Oh God a Muffin Top,” sending us both into hysterical laughter.

Now I had never heard this expression, but immediately I knew what she meant and of course when I typed it into urbanDICTIONARY, it was there.  According to urbanDICTIONARY a Muffin Top is when a woman wears a pair of tight jeans that makes her flab spill out over the waistband, just like the top of a muffin sits over the edge of the paper case.  That is a perfect new word/definition!

Now, neither of us are skinny minnies, but we do own mirrors, make use of the said mirrors and dress appropriately.  It amazes me how some people will go out into public and that the majority of them think that they look pretty damn hot!!!

On the same subject matter (new words/definitions), Dena and I learned another gem of a word from her 22 year old daughter not too long ago that I thought I would share - FOPA.  Have you heard it before?  Neither had we, but it stands for Fat Over P—-y Area.  Nice, huh?  We thought so too!  Try to work that into a conversation today and let me know how that goes!
