Now that I'm an adult, I would find it totally weird to have anyone address me as Ms. Hell, I'm not even that into Aunt as it feels so formal.

How often have you bragged or been bragged to about making it to the gym?

Not that often, honestly.

But, bon, I don't see the point of that statement if France and the US are similarly uncheered by an increase in physical exertion.

This is not what the author said. He said:

I didn't say that's what he said. I posit that Americans are uncheered and he posits that the French are uncheered. That's where I was discussing from.

I also think that better self esteem is generally better mental health.

Oh, and some other stuff. I'm going back to bed.

Does take a lot of work. Occasionally I respond to "Ms. [lastname]" with "Yes, Mr. Guerrero?" This tended to surprise the middle-schoolers.

I've bragged about making it to the gym because it's so unusual for me. And I can never keep it up. I get so tired of the "If you'd just exercise, you'd have more energy!" sentiment, since -- unless it can start working within two or three visits -- I don't have enough energy to exercise regularly! You'd think this would be an obvious obstacle.

Of course, then we get into the tired=lazy=bad issue, and I go eat chips instead.

Being fit makes anyone feel better. I don't mean being skinny, but being fit--getting your heart rate up and using your muscles to the point of tiredness on a regular basis so they are toned and strong. We are designed to move and all the systems of our body work better when we do so. I think that's a fact which no one would argue. But how one gets healthy is immaterial, although we do make gym-going a moral thing here.

Since my surgery, I have fallen back into rationalizing not getting much exercise andit sucks. I am working on getting back in shape again right now and I know I will feel better (noot about myself, just better in general) once I do so.

Our lunch options have been canceled, sadly.

Wah. May the hotel sandwiches be tasty and edible.

I have french fries and new glasses! I'm a little worried that other people aren't going to find them as awesome as I do.

Yeah I did this too. It turns out I just hated going to the gym. So I figured out what I can do for exercise that doesn't involve going to the gym and I'm much happier! Although I guess I do still feel all morally superior (to my lazy self, that is) when I exercise. Right now I'm having a challenge for myself that if I exercise every day for a whole month straight I get to buy the Office season 3 dvds. And I decided last night that if I do something every day until the end of the year I can get a new tattoo. I just like a competition, I guess, even if it's a self-imposed one!

Certainly the longer you wait to eat them, the less awsome they are going to get.

If they match your rainbow shoes, I might have to mock you.

Please tell me you mean shrift's glasses and not her french fries.
