I went to Best Buy during lunch to make a return. While I was there, it became apparent that I was wearing a blue shirt and khaki pants. I was asked by two different people for help, thinking I was an employee. The first person was kind of upset at me for how long she had to wait to get some service, which was a bit funny because she was going to need to keep waiting. The second lady actually helped me find what I was looking for, so that was cool. Instead of browsing more, I decided to leave. I think the last time this happened was when I wore a red shirt to Target.
On my way to my car, I saw this car. I don't know why, but I want one. It is so small and kind of ugly, yet cool, but it just seems like a great cost efficient way to get around. Now, I wouldn't want to be going too fast in one.
I feel like I should talk about the swine flu. For now I'm not going to worry too much and try to be careful, but the media is really over reacting I think. Maybe if they were calm we could be calm too. Instead they sensationalize and then tell us to be calm. I wonder when we will start closing schools.
I was talking to Abram about my pull up chart and how I can do a whole 2 pull ups right now. He asked me what goes though my head when I clearly used to be in shape and able to do many pull ups among other things, and now that I can only do two. It was a good question. I told him that for a long time I was comparing myself to my hypothetical ideal self or my former self and it made me feel like such a disappointment. I need to just accept myself where I am at and go from there. So lets say I used to be able to do 30 pull ups easily. If I move up to 4 pull ups, then I'm +2 better than I was and not -26 from where I should be. Apply this logic to everything from running, to bench to all my former stats. Yeah, it sucks to have to start all over, but it is that self pity that has kept me back for so long. This applies to so many aspects of life, from relationships, love and money.
I figured I'd practice taking candid shots of things while out in the real world. This magazine is something that caught my eye. "Look Great Naked." How do you say no to that? Ladies, I think you should pick up this months (weeks?) issue of Women's Health. I wonder how they find so many ways to say the very same thing. I mean even on top it says, "Get a strong and sexy beach body." I wonder if next issue they will take the swine flu? or maybe just more about weight and looking sexy.
Arlen Specter Switching Parties From Republican To Democrat
I was very happy to hear this. I know this doesn't mean we will get his vote, but it is still better than him being a Republican. Does this mean we have a chance for healthcare? Now if only we could get Franken seated. A little history, Specter was originally a Democrat before running as a Republican to become Philadelphia’s district attorney. According to Wikipedia, Specter also co-authored the magic bullet theory, which argued that a lone gunman assassinated JFK.
