Spring Cleaning

Thursday, March 20th, 2008

I would guess most of us (including yours truly) don’t look this good cleaning house. If you do…hats off!

 

But you can! Spring cleaning may seem like a total drag, but serious scrubbing can burn some serious calories. Shape up while you clean up! So, just how many calories can you burn while cleaning? For every 30 minutes, you can burn 77 calories ironing, 148 calories mowing the lawn (with a push mower), 85 calories dusting, and 77 calories burning dishes.  So bust out your dust rag and clean your way to a slimmer, sexier you.

Spend Your Money on Something Less-Freakish!

Friday, March 7th, 2008

I am completely disgusted right now. I’ve just seen some pictures of women who have had some ribs surgically removed in order to get freakishly smaller waists. Girls! It’s not worth it! You don’t look normal!

You know how you get itchy when people talk about bugs? Well, I am kind of getting the same feeling right now. When I look at these pictures, I just want to grab onto my ribs because they start to ache.

I would so rather have a huge waist than look like this!

I wonder if she can walk normally? Breathe OK? Twist her torso? Bend side to side without snapping something? Do sit-ups? Doesn’t it just look painful!?

“Please Hold”

Thursday, March 6th, 2008

Am I the only one with an exceptionally low tolerance for crappy on hold music?

Seriously! No wonder customer service reps have to deal with so many irritated and downright pissed of customers. Because they were just subjected to some of the most boring, mind-numbing, and downright obnoxious on hold crap. You’d think some of these bigger corporations would come up with the brilliant idea to invest in some effective, interesting {gasp!} on hold music (or a message, I guess) to take advantage of the poor customers they have on the line?

 

Have I recently had an experience being on hold? Funny you ask. A certain retail giant (who shall remain unnamed because I refuse to let my bad experience poison others and keep them from experiencing what has been an otherwise pleasant place to do business) had the most awful “trendy” perhaps? music playing. What’s worse is it sounded like they had hooked up to an FM station broadcasting from the middle of nowhere…filled with lots of static and “noise.” Who knew what the music really was!

Twilight comes out later this year in December and Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart are playing the leads as Edward and Bella. Can you say HOT?

Designer Purses Galore Oh My!

Tuesday, March 4th, 2008

So if you’ll remember, awhile ago I had mentioned possibly using a dropship company to begin an online retail store. Turns out, my trendy, always-immaculate, so gorgeous you almost hate her neighbor in my apartment complex apparently has being using one for a few years to sell designer handbags online. Who knew? She works full-time for a marketing agency and the online handbag shop is something she does on the side. She sells a number of designers, including Coach which she said is her best-selling brand. Making good money on the side selling fabulous designer bags? How jealous was I?

Speaking of purses….I have my eye on this beaut…I’m hoping she’ll get one in and sell it for less than the $748 hefty price tag (wishful thinking, I know).
