Today's rant touches on a subject brought up in yesterday's rant. (Thanks Jess!!) My DH and I went to the gym last night and it was packed with New Years Resolutioners. You could tell them from the regulars because they had on brand spanking new workout clothes with matching headbands/wristbands. Many of them didn't even exercise. They walked around "blessing" the machines. Those that did aren't used to sweating and their sweat smells funny. This fact really hit home when I walked into the stretching room to cool down. It smelled so funky that I had to force myself to fart a few times to make it smell better. And, we all know how bad post-op farts smell. My husband said the stretching room (pre-farts of course) smelled like a gaming convention. That's where a bunch of overweight guys get together an entire weekend and don't take a bath the whole time they are there. The entire hotel can smell like sweaty overweight unbathed men. Can we say ewww? I'm counting the days until my cruise because I know the New Years people will be mostly gone by the time I get back. (sigh)
What's bugging you today? Come share and vent.
Oh man, I can so relate to this post. This is what going to the gym was like this week and last...every piece of equipment in our teeny gym was being used...when usually, it's deserted in there. It annoyed me to no end. Truly.
Today's rant for me...hmmm...I started my period today and so I'm just insanely tired and cranky. I have to say though, that PMS this month was WAY better...thanks to a low dosage of Lexapro I took for the two weeks post-ovulation until today. Wow! HUGE DIFFERENCE! I know that is probably way TMI for some folks. LOL.
Add some splenda tea to the spitfest. Terri, you just crack me up! I can't wait to get over my cold so I can get back to the gym and laugh out loud when the funky smell hits me.

My only rant is Time. I so want to work on my WLS scrapbook but I just can't find the time. I'd love to at least get it started before I hit goal......in just 3 lbs!!!!
Wishing you all a great day!

God bless men....
Last night I got home and my BF says 'the cat yakked in the bathroom' (he wont clean up cat yak because it makes him yak)... so I sigh and go in there and there was a dozen red roses in a nice vase on the vanity... awww :-) how sweet. Then he offered to go shopping with me at Target *and* Khols for a few things we needed around the house..... theeeeeen he said he was taking me to Outback for dinner so we didnt have to worry about cooking/cleaning up. Very sweet. Later on I asked what he did wrong of course... in a joking manner of course! The roses opened up beautifully overnight and smell sooooo yummy.
Anyways... for the fun part... he goes, oh I took one of those pills you got from the hospital. I said, why would you need to take a percocet?? He said, well I had a headache... isnt it just headache medicine? *bangs head on desk* I said no, its a pain killer... a narcotic, not heachae medicine - why would they give me headache medicine after surgery?? He said, well it didnt do anything to me.. I actucally had one of the best days at work today (it was only 5mg of percocet, 525mg of aspirin mix).... I said... you arnt even suppose to drive when you take those foool! You heard the nurse say I could get a DUI (or whatever it would be) for driving while taking them right? He said no of course. I didnt know what to say so I just said you are such a nerd and went to sleep. When I woke up this morning I hid the bottle ;-)

OMG, I missed the Resolutioner smell, thank god. That is so despicable.
Oh, what to rant about today. So many things to choose from.....
1. There's a manager I work with, he's not my manager, but I kind of indirectly work with him. Long story made short - he's an utter douche bag.
2. I still weigh 206.4, I don't even know why I am eager to get under 200, I know my body will hold onto these 6.5lbs just to spite me. But I am still miffed.
3. As some of you know, I live with my brother and his wife right now. She is preggo and now they don't fit in the bed together so one has been sleeping on the couch. I HATE couch sleeping. I think it is the grossest thing ever. Just a little weird-ism. Plus, I am on the 1st floor, they are on the 2nd so I didn't have to worry about making noise when I get ready in the morning... until now. Not that I make much noise but they still give me nasty looks from the couch.
4. I have to buy a house/condo out of state. I don't even know how to buy one in state. I'll rant more on this in the future I am sure.
5. I bruised my tailbone AGAIN. WTF? Why isn't this damn thing further inside of my body? Every time I plop down on the wood floor without thinking I hit the damn thing. That's just dumb. I want my juicy butt back.
