My Celebrity Happenings Rant...

Ok, far be it for me to judge, but there are some things just BUGGIN me:

First of all, octuplets mom, there is no way to justify that. That lady has had more plastic surgery then Pam Anderson, look at those lips! You want to have all sorts of babies, that's great. I can even handle having all sorts of babies on the tax payer dollar, although not well. But I cannot handle putting all these babies at risk because you are a selfish human. And I don't want to hear about it any more unless it is someone prosecuting someone else (like that fertility doctor). The end.

Second of all, Rhianna and Chris Brown, how sad is that! I don't understand why some of these celebs and politicians cannot stop themselves before they do something that they KNOW everyone will find out and RUIN things for them. This poor chick has canceled all these shows and it goes to show, NO ONE should be the victim of domestic violence but women from ALL walks of life are.

Brian Phelps- do I think it is THAT big of a deal he smoked pot, no. Do I think that, as a role model making millions off of your teenage fans, you have a duty to them to act like a grown up and NOT smoke weed at a frat party- ABSOLUTELY. And if they charge all the people in those pictures and video and NOT Phelps, I think that is the biggest example of injustice. It is one thing if you are Amy Winehouse and part of your image is to be a psychotic druggie. But making your money off of an image of innocence, even if you are only 23 years old, and then doing drugs is inexcusably stupid.

Illinois governor guy- Blagovinich or whatever, we'll call him stupid hair guy. First of all, WHAT IS UP WITH THE HAIR? WHY would anyone elect this guy anyways? If the leader of my state had what looked like a 10-lb tupee, I'd be embarassed! AND WHAT, WHAT? makes this guy think he can POSSIBLY get away with selling the Senate seat? You have to be seriously demented in the first place to even think you can joke about that! Fade away dude.

Ok, that is all, carry on...

The Prayers of an Athlete

As I was getting my butt kicked by the Power Toning instructor today, I thought of all the prayers I've said while working out...

Dear Lord, please help me get my lazy ass to the gym/out on the trail today.

(while walking into the gym) Oh God, I can't believe I am doing this to myself again.

(while waffling as to whether to go to the gym or not) Lord, wouldn't it be ok if just this once (ha ha) I went and ate lunch out today instead of going to the gym and working out?

Lord, thank God I'm here.

Please Lord, don't let me fall of this treadmill/balance ball/bike/stairstepper!

Lord, get me through this!

I CAN finish this, Lord, I CAN!

Lord, please don't let me walk during this race, or finish last.

God, are you kidding me?

Lord, thank you for giving me the strength to endure all I did today. I am so blessed that you have given me the gifts of mobility, agility, and strength.

Amen!
