With all my fine talk about staying on my diet, etc., I seem unable to get going on an exercise program. I’ve had several false starts that sound great. So…..
Just 4 today, I will do my 4x on the stairs and my little weight exercise again.
Puget have you tried dancing? There are several music video channels, or you could just use the radio, set to a station that plays modern dance music. You can go at your own pace, sit one out, and if you are alone, no one will know if you are not very good at it.
Just 4 Today I will walk to the mailbox down the road instead of waiting until I drive by it to pick up my mail.
Just 4 this weekend, I did not Just 4 Today, but Just 4 Tomorrow, I will Just 4 Today. I wonder if I could dance to that. ManE–dance to the mailbox!
I can tell you right now, I’m not going to try to dance on ice! not just today, and not just any day.
Ductape, you and Madame must have had one of your best evenings of these Olympics. Did you have a favorite bad costume from the ice dancing? I thought the white trousers were pretty awful because they *didn’t* look like a costume. He looked like some guy who had just wandered in off the street.
I cannot begin to tell you. We were appalld by the number of ice dancers who failed to call us before making their final costume choices. Who put that awful bright yellow on that poor girl from France, I think it was, who simply did not have the skin for it.
And the blond in the hot pink. It ate her! Right there on TV! And I will not even discuss Barbie. Yes, I have a bias against blonds in red. The only one who even came close to getting away with it was an olive skinned Russian girl whose hairstylist had apparently been delayed by snow and was unable to cover the dancer’s dark roots.
And speaking of hairstyle atrocity, that stylist of that poor Italian girl in the faux yellow and green tie dye had dyed her hair – and that of her coach – that color which in the barrios of the US is referred to as “recent immigrant orange,” and there it hung, lank as hay, turning their lovely Mediterranean complexions the color of dirty Dijon mustard. So now we’ll dress her in yellow splotch. Oh yes! No wonder they fell!
And speaking of falling, we see that it can happen to anybody, even those who have had the basic common sense not to try to bleach their dark hair. I do not want to see that young lady on the ice again. It is not entertaining to watch injured people perform, like that stupid skiing girl. But I digress.
I did try to watch for teeth, but they all seemed to have the CNN on camera template to me, so no prizes were awarded.
We came very near awarding a prize to the sky blue and leopard print couple from Russia, for sheer improbability, but they didn’t fall, so they were disqualified.
Failure to fall did not prevent us, however, from awarding the Israli couple both the Best Costume That Celebrates Bjork and Most Feathers Left On Ice medals.
I hadn’t put it together until you made the connection for me! Unflattering color choices > falling on ice. Of course. How could it not? Duh! Every time they see a reflection of themselves in the ice it momentariily disorients them and they lose concentration. They experience a moment of horror, realize the error of their fashion ways, and think, “OMG, what have I done!?” instead of thinking, “Raise right leg, attack partner with it, spin.” Next thing you know: yellow splat.
I wasn’t able to focus on teeth, either, unfortunately. I was too blinded by the costumes. Skiing events are better for teeth viewing, because they come right up to the camera and grin. Just a little tip I’ve learned.
