the next shake weight?

so i'm shooting an infomercial today. the details are vague to say the least.

i was told it's "fitness" related.

the audition consisted of a mere photograph taken of my person and face.

let's speculate what's in store.

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hwocdImA6Z8&feature=player_embedded]

cowboy is very hip these days, no? everyone's trying to get their true grit on. maybe my pilates pelvic tilting skills will come in handy on dem der' saddle.

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BOAO4SX8N3o&feature=related]

perhaps i'll luck out and get a mini maui vacation with the hawaii chair .

if you can sit, you can get fit!!

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pij33oHFyT0&feature=player_embedded#at=12]

slim suit! message to woman at 0:25 trust me you don't that dress to fit honey.

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1aUFZL9R04Y&feature=player_embedded#at=12]

um...i think this 'three-minute miracle' can also get you pregnant.

i'll need a giant clause in my contract if this is today's product.

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8eLU5wYWKd4&feature=player_embedded#at=47]

and i know this really isn't fitness, but go-girl can be used in conjunction with fitness endeavors.

at least with 'go-girl' i'll stop taking life.....sitting down.

musical monday

a little melody for your monday m'loves....

wilderness of manitoba, a plum cobbler for my ears, is currently burning up the house speakers.

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ij8c-tbhkdM]

their sound is heavy folk.

i can hear the mud on their boots and swear that's rustling corn field vying with harmonica.

we fling the doors open, and wait for pa and laura ingalls to come in from the barn.

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OCiiyi33kKs]

a sweeter, old time sound for the sharper, more sophisticated {at-first-glance-only} times we're trying to survive.

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JtSq5jPrGSU]

wilderness of manitoba's new album is available on itunes for $2.97

what tickles you most from jenna's italian jaunt?

marissa's coral magic lippies?

those mouth-watering bowls of pasta?

shiny and squared, perfectly lacquered nails every sixth frame?

tension easing gelato breaks?

or afternoon espresso in the piazza?

buon giorno italia!!!

un-numb

soul stirring courtesy of miss marina.
turn up the volume.
let's get un-numb loves.

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c7367icMhuI]

One track mind like a gold fishStuck inside my petri dishI can't breath and I can't smileThis better be worth my while

I feel numb most of the timeThe lower I get the higher I'll climbAnd I will wonder whyI got dark only to shineLooking for the golden lightOh, it's a reasonable sacrificeBurn, burn, burn bright

Forgo family, forgo friendsIt's how it started, how it endsI can open up and cryCoz I've been silent all my life

I feel numb most of the timeThe lower I get the higher I'll climbAnd I will wonder whyI get dark only to shineLooking for the golden lightOh it's a reasonable sacrificeBurn, burn, burn bright

Oh, I get dark oh and I'm in hellI need a friend, oh but I can't yellYeah, I'm no good, no good to anyoneCoz all I care about is being number one

Shine, looking for the golden lightIt's a reasonable sacrificeBurn, burn

Shine, looking for the golden lightOh it's a reasonable sacrifice (sacrifice)

I feel numb most of the timeThe lower I get the higher I'll climbAnd I will wonder whyI get dark only to shine

And I light up the skyStars that burn the brightestFall so fast and pass you byCough like empty lighters

I feel numb most of the timeThe lower I get the higher I'll climbAnd I will wonder whyI get dark only to shine

And I light up the skyStars that burn the brightestFall so fast and pass you bySpark like empty lighters

a weekend not of dancing.

chins to our chest, eyes dark, throats lumpy, and stomachs sick.

beautiful. simple. remedying.

l'histoire a fille française

the face, l'accent, and the dramatic interpretation definitely do their best to distract from what is a truly grisly, wretched, dismal story.

how old are you young lady?

what exactly do they teach these babes over there in france?

murder? suicide? chicken box?

plus terrible’.

also, i don't know anything about this baby making thing.

but i've read you can do all this far out stuff now with genetic testing, spinning petri dishes, etc.

some parents really want a boy, want green eyes for their baby, or feel the need to safeguard against certain, god forbid, predisposed genetic diseases.

for me, it's VERY important that my baby speak fluent french.

immediately. upon leaving the birth canal.

curious if this fertility specialization works in jargon as well as gender.

and, no i'm not and nowhere near pregnant.

an ending. please.

this week ends the deadliest month in the afghanistan war.

nothing really more to say. crying feels better.

i have the flu so my maudlin mood magnifies with whims of vapors and fits of fury.

being sick sends me into my weepiest, most melodramatic, has-been actress theatrics.

antony and the johnsons play in every speaker of the house. all tv's muted on msnbc {2:15 it gets good}.

wishing you peace this weekend my friends.
