In an attempt to be distracted from the worrisome sad aspects of life.....

The objective is putting a positive spin on things

Idea #1

Mid Day Cocktail, it is as we all know 5 o'clock somewhere.

The sleep diet...the more you sleep, the more weight you lose. Or the shoe diet....for every pair of shoes you buy, you automatically lose 5 pounds.

Does sleep really help you lose weight?

Having a brown lawn means you are conserving water, one of nature's most precious resources!

Spending money on health food is justified by the savings in medical expenses.

It's not 'ignoring' your kids, but fostering independence!

The emotional devastation diet is the best, imho, for dropping enormous amounts of weight in a very short time period.

I am starting to get the impression that you guys are joking with your "positive spins"

When I put Mid Day Cocktail, I was actually having one.

I am behaving, there is nothing wrong with having a couple drinks during the summer. I am not at work, don't have to go anywhere, and its putting me in a slightly better mood.

The Nerd Diet--

Stay up til the wee hours of the morning, forcing you to sleep SO late, that you have no choice but to wait for dinner.

I lost 20 pounds over a summer like this.


One year becomes two, two years becomes five, five becomes ten and before you know it, you've wasted your whole life on a problem you can't solve. That's one way to spend your life. -rwinger

I will not spend my life this way.

Oh, I thought we were supposed to joke

In that case...the positive spin of never having SF is that at least I won't get pregnant. bleh

People who brag about their cocktails while the rest of us are all out of coke zero are mean
