I had to buy some acne cream today, and the guy at the
register was eyeballing me to see where the zits were – apparently, he didn’t
know that women of a certain age still get acne. Right here on the chin, kid – the Mount St.
Helen sized bump… makes me wonder though – where would his eyes have wandered
if I’d come up there with a box of Monistat.
Eyes up, Junior! Also, if you’re
ever in Germany and find yourself in need – their version of Monistat is called
Kadefungin. Ask for it by name – or, do
like I did – scour your husband’s German dictionary and memorize a short
monologue that either explains what you need or outlines the steps needed to
brew beer – they’re remarkably similar.

I had yesterday off, thanks to Dr. King, and in true spirit
of the day, I went shopping. At one
store, I’m browsing the sale rack, and out of nowhere, this kid, who I’m guessing
to be 4 or 5, who is running around the store comes flying around the corner
and smacks right into my leg. HARD. And he falls flat on his ass. In my surprise, I let out a sharp, “Excuse
me!” I look over and the kid is just
laying there. Not moving. After a few seconds he gets up and kind of
eyeballs me like I should be concerned that I got in his way and made him fall
or something. Let me be clear, I didn’t
trip the kid – I didn’t even see him coming.
He banged into me – I was stationary. And so, I wasn’t going to fawn over him for
being an idiot. I never did see his
mother, but he kept running around the store.
So the next time a kid runs into me at full-force, I’m going to cry out
in pain and make a complete jackass of myself.
Scream and moan until the mother comes over and makes her precious angel
behave. Look, I don’t hate kids. No, really.
I swear. I do hate shopping, and
I hate being plowed into by people who have spatial awareness issues. I’m sure Dr. King would have been proud of my
non-violent reaction.
We went to my dermatologist yesterday – not for my
aforementioned uber-pimple, but to check on Matt’s hives. Long story.
Anyway, the dermato, Dr. P only met me three times: once to look at the bump on my head, once to
remove it, and once to tell me it was cancer – and yet –she totally remembered
me. And she and Dr. S want to write a paper about
my case. I always knew I’d be famous.
I head to Columbia, SC for a training class tomorrow, so I’m
going to weigh in a little early – as in, today. I think it will be good. I’ve been compliant this week, except for an
incident involving an Angel Food Cake. Which, if you’re going to deviate, that’s
a pretty safe binge.
I had to kind of throw a hissy on a process today at
work. Now, I don’t usually get beat up
over details, but this one matters to me, and I’m not going to yield on
it. I also sent in a summary of some
information I received for a focus group and I’m pretty sure that’s going to
raise some eyebrows too. I don’t care.
I did two classes at the Y yesterday, also in honor of Dr.
King. Because I have a dream… of
eventually wearing a size 12. Point
being, I am so sore from Dance Blast in the morning and Zumba in the
evening. I can move, but it isn’t
pretty.
This guy on Jeopardy last night answered a question
(incorrectly). Turns out Alex Trebek
is a huge perv, because you can hear him
chuckle…
A donkey punch is when you’re having sex, and at the moment
of climax, you punch the person in the back of the head so s/he clenches and
make things tighter, which increases
your pleasure. Ah, Trebek, you’re a bad boy!
And, that’s all.
