Blog Hopper

Well, I have just wasted an hour clicking "next blog" buttons on the computer. I like to blog hop, hoping that I will hop right onto my blog, but that never happens. In fact, amazingly enough, I have randomly hopped to the same blog more than once.

I wonder how that can be possible with the huge numbers of blogs that are out there. They must have some sort of hidden programming key. One blog that I am thinking about was a terrorism blog. I just ran into that one twice in my hour of hopping.

Hopping here, hopping there, does that count as exercise?

Official

It is official. It has been 2 week since my last post! I just haven't had any exciting things to blog about, in fact, I have been kinda in the dumps lately.

I swim, run, bike, yoga, walk, hike, wakeboard, rock climb, and just about anything that sounds like fun. I do all these things for fun and for that never ending pursuit of weight loss. I have been feeling like a very large mass of goo. Yesterday morning at the pool, I was sitting on the edge waiting for the coach to write down the workout and I glanced down at my belly and guess what I saw???



Scroll down....





Keep scrolling....












Ok, this picture isn't that great and it isn't really what I saw when I looked down but some days that is how I feel. I seriously can be sitting on the toilet, in a chair or on the pool deck and literally tuck my fingers up under my belly flab. Where did this come from and why??????

Taller? Prettier? Braver?

What is that saying??

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

I believe that beauty is just perception, it is how we perceive one another. Also, I believe that society also helps to define beauty, it us up to each individual to think for themselves and try to not let society's view skew their thinking. So, how can one person be prettier than another?

My sister writes in her blog about me being taller, prettier and braver than her. That is her perception, I don't agree. Well, the taller is just a matter of fact, I agree with that, but I have arguments against being taller. One, when you are taller, you have bigger feet! What I wouldn't give to have a size 8 foot instead of a 9.5-10! Two, I have already complained about my endeavors for pants that are long enough! Finding longer lengths in women's pants is very difficult! Three, long airline flights are a drag!

Braver? One of the bravest things in the world, in my opinion, is to have/raise a child, let alone 5 children! My bumper stickers are not brave, they are just controversial, authority defying, and kinda funny. I will take my bumper toting scooter any day over raising a kid, it is easier, less stressful, and oh not so brave!

So, I can play the "She got" game too, my sister got the bigger boobies, smaller feet, smaller hands with great fingernails, all the artistic talent to make her own lithographs, and her very own retirement plan in the form of 5 great kids!

Ha, so there.

Thirteen Bumper Stickers that are on My Scooter



1….

This one is one of my favorites! I had one of the pathologists ask me today what kind of cat I had......hmmmmm.

2... Obviously from the 2004 elections. It didn't help.



3...

Again, 2004 election stuff.

4...
I found this surfing the net. I laughed out loud when I read this one so I had to have it.


5...

This is not what it seems. Check out the website, www.beaverpower.com. I just like the assumption that everyone has when they read this bumper sticker or t-shirt (I have 3 different versions).

6... This sticker was procured at BurningMan from a local theater here in town. Instead of saying "Have a nice day" why doesn't one say..............................

7... This one is kinda hard to read but it says "My other bike is a bike" and I do have 3 other 2 wheeled bikes in my garage.

8... I had asked a friend who went to Street Vibrations a city celebration for Harley and other motorcycle riders to find some stickers for me, she brought me this one and a few others that I am gonna put in this count.

9... is actually on my helmet that says "I ride my vibrator" sorry no picture.

10.... is a tiny one above # 12 that says "Lethal Weapon"

11...

Misc. Burning Man sticker reminding everyone to recycle, pack it in/pack it out.

12...
The full reading of this is "FUCK WORK" and is pretty well hidden on the steering column. But this pretty much sums up how I am feeling about work these days... or is it my boss???


13...Because really, isn't it
