Kim Kardashian is a spokesperson for pretty people

So. My life is so interesting. Today I skimmed over some article that talked about how Kim Kardashian has psoriasis and apparent;y when she found out she was really sad because people don't understand that she can't have red patches on her skin because people expect her to be beautiful and that's just so hard *pouty face*. Now, as a girl I can understand that having people pick apart every single flaw you may have is not a pleasurable experience, even if you do look like Kim Kardashian, but isn't she the one that put herself in this position? I'm just a bit sick of fame whores complaining about being famous. No one would've cared about Kimmy if she hadn't made and allowed the release of her sex tape. She knowingly used it to become famous, it worked for her former friend Paris Hilton didn't it? I don't really have much more to say on this, other than maybe there should be some rule that automatically forbade any media to report on a person who complains about their fame and money. I don't mean a reasonable complaint like "people go up to my child and say creepy things to him" or whatever I mean like stupid things like this. If you put yourself in a fishbowl, don't complain about people being able to see you in it. But I guess I should say that a lot of times I think people should really follow the rule of "if you have nothing nice to say...." it's one thing to poke fun of person's hairstyle or dress or something, it's another to make fun of their weight or face or something, even if the person is famous and rich.

So yeah, that was the most significant event in my day today. How sad? Actually, I did learn today that people sometimes need to be told what they want or don't want for them to realize it. This is a result of a long story that I will not be sharing but basically I think sometimes people get caught up with excitement of "stuff" and they don't realize that what they are actually excited about is something that they actually don't really want. Then again, I don't know, maybe I'm just being a brat. I'm trying not to be a brat but since that's sort of a ummm survival mechanism (that's sort of like a defence mechanism but not). Sometimes the only way I could get people to honor my wishes is to be a brat. More on that later.

Romantic Tuesday

Diet Update: Yeah, not today.

I didn't really do much of anything today. I did finish reading my romance novel. It was pretty good, very funny at times and of course a bit cheesy, you can't have romance without cheese because you can't have cheese without wine because this metaphor is going nowhere. I did find it a little bit funny to see where the author just lost her mind a bit and was hoping to finish the book. Within the last twenty pages the author credited the wrong character with a quote. I sort of like it when these things happen, make me feel better about making stupid mistakes when I don't even have an editor that reads my stuff. I tend to get my books from the library, if I kept all the books I read I would live in a house made of books and they don't do a good job of protecting one from rain and snow, so when I find a mistake like that I like to do a favour for the next reader and use a pencil (I was taught to never write in pen in books) to cross out the incorrect name and write the correct one in the margin with an arrow pointing to it. Believe it or not I have done this more than once. Lucky me will get to do this twice in this book, because the previously mentioned offence was not the only one of its' kind. The book also contained a preview of the next book in the series and in those few pages once again the author used the wrong name. How did this sort of thing get by an editor twice? Heads surely will roll. Probably not but I am sure someone was yelled at once other readers before me found these mistakes and pointed them out to people in power. Oh the drama!

My Goal

So I wanted to talk about my "diet" goal. Mainly for myself, so I can have it in writing. When I started it all I wanted to lose about 10 lbs. I don't know why but I think we all have a number we want to be no matter what it actually means in terms of our appearance. Well as it is now, I want to lose about 15 lbs because I seem to have picked up 5 somewhere along the way. The number isn't actually that important to me, it's just something by which I can follow my progress. What the "real" goal, well one of the "real" goals, is to just be a tad less jiggly. I like clean lines on things and I like them on myself too, I don't like soft rolls and curves. To me they stick out like a sore thumb. I also want to be healthier. So that's another goal, I want to eat healthier food. I want to be able to cut out a lot of crap that I eat. The problem is that I don't really eat that much real crap like fast food etc. so whatever I do eat is just not all that healthy which I think makes it a little bit harder. The solution I guess would be to eat more really healthy things and less not so healthy things, but as I mentioned before, when I'm hungry the first meal that comes to mind is a pound of pasta. I love pasta, I really love pasta. ramble, off topic.

So less pasta. More.... I don't really know what. I mean vegetables, yes but what else? Chicken breast, ok, got it. Some fish, mostly canned tuna but grilled salmon or some sort of white fish too, about once a week. And that's all I got, and that's the problem, these things have been in my diet for pretty much my whole life, and yet I still feel like that's not enough. I can't be a vegetarian, I would like to try sometime for...some time, but with my food allergies and laziness I really don't think I could realistically last any longer than maybe a month at best. I'm not a confident cook. I love to do it, but for myself. Whenever I have to cook for other people I get very nervous and stressed and end up making a salad or something. I have this huge fear of people not liking what I made. I don't really know why, I suppose it's not that big of a deal but I can't seem to shake it. And if I were to completely reinvent my diet I would have to cook for other people. Two separate dinners will not really fly in this house, I mean yes sometimes there's something that I don't like so I make something else for myself, but that can't happen everyday.

But anyways, #1 Get Fit #2 Eat Healthier.

Ice Cream

My unhealthy snack of choice. A magnum bar. White chocolate.

It has been a few minutes since my last post and I just wanted to take the time to acknowledge the fact that the storm metaphor or whatever it is, has been grossly overused and it's really quite nauseating, so I apologize for that, but it seriously was storming and people really were fighting. At least I didn't title this "I scream for ice cream" *thinks about it*...yeah, no. You're Welcome.

Stormy skies.

Today is one of those days. I didn't shower until late afternoon. After that I ate then I got right back on/in the unmade bed with my computer and proceeded to just click,click,click. Then the storm came. Literally, there was a storm, there still is, it's almost done. It was to be expected. Figuratively too, fighting and screaming. It never ends, always expected but always startling. Sometimes it feels like life is compromised of those moments between the inevitable storms where you run around as fast as you can so that you can get as much done before the next one comes and hope that you don't get caught in one. At least you can use an umbrella in a real storm. Now, before the next storm comes along, I will run down and get tea, and probably some not so healthy snack and run back up and get back to click, click, clicking.

Garden Cocktail

So you know those Mott's Garden Cocktail commercials that claim it is so much better than V8. Well, I tried the Garden Cocktail today and I've got to say that it is one of the most disgusting things I've ever had. It tastes like you are drinking watery sweet vinegar. Who would even want to drink that? It's like liquid ketchup!!! I love ketchup but I don't want to drink it!. So yeah, if you enjoy or at least tolerate the taste of V8, stay away from the Garden Cocktail, it is NOT better.

I think that after I made two posts that mentioned V8 I should just put it out there that I have no affiliation to V8 or any people that have any affiliation to them, I just really like the vegetables that you don't have to wash and cut and stuff.

Hi.

I really want to write a blog but I have absolutely nothing interesting to say at all. I just looked at the clock, it's kind of late, I should go exercise. I like to do it at night because it makes me sleepy (that's what she said), but often I hold it off until it's too late and it's time for me to watch my tv show and get to bed. By get to bed I mean spend extra 3 hours watching youtube videos and eating unhealthy things. So yeah, that's how my diet is going. I think I could eat relatively healthy if I really tried. Like if I had a schedule and such. I mean it wouldn't be all salad diet or anything but I think it would be healthy enough. I find that exercising makes me want to eat healthy things, which is good. The bad part is that I have no creativity when it comes to making healthy food, so I basically always have the same thing. Also, I'm pretty lazy when it comes to making food when I'm actually hungry. I can make food when I'm not hungry-not when I'm stuffed- but when I'm hungry I tend to just cook a pot full of pasta and add a nice fatty sauce to it. I prefer my veggies in liquid form ie. V8. I would eat more veggies if they didn't require washing and cutting and taking out of refrigerator and stuff. So yeah, I guess I'll go work out now. :D
