Hurricane Ike. That is all.

There are two things that annoy me greatly during a time of deep personal depression.
One is when people tell me to find the “Happy Lori.” Grumble, grumble…head to the ground…indiscernible murmuring peppered with intelligible cursing…
The other is when people suggest that, in an effort to feel better, I should go out and exercise. Here’s the deal, pumpkineaters: I don’t like exercising when I feel great. And I reaaallly don’t like exercising when I feel awful.
So, if you make the really poor choice of suggesting exercise to me as a way to cure my depression, the conversation will probably go something like this:
You: You know what I think might help you feel better, Lori…is some exercise.
Me (in my head): If by exercise you mean you think I should drive around in my PT Cruiser and listen to Judy Garland sing “Mean to Me” over and over on a disc that skips…then, yes, I agree that exercise is what would be best.
Me (out loud): Erm. I can’t really breathe. I think I should take a nap instead.
You: But, Lori, exercise is good for you! Maybe if you took a walk…
Me (out loud): Oh, I do that. I pace. Pacing is walking, right? See? I exercise. It’s very good for me.
The thing is, unless I wake up with a Wii Fit magically at the foot of my bed, I doubt any other type of exercise will be enjoyed by me any time soon. Because the only kind of exercise I can imagine doing would have to somehow involve a video game as well. Because I’m athletic like that.

yea! or is this to be a yeah! Either one works for me, but I think that I will stick with the yea! I love it from the title alone, well you know why…
I just told you to take a bath… I would never ever suggest exercise. I truly believe that physical fitness will be the death of me
Just wanted to let you know that I can completely relate to this. Exercise is evil.
I came to this page just to see of you something about Ike and you did!!
I relate to everything in your blog. And I can honestly add that I have been too depressed to take a bath lately – and when I do, it doesn’t make me feel better – yet. If you want to know more, send me an e-mail. maggie
Hmmm. exercise. Is sitting in your backyard watching bees considered excercise? You have to sit up at least once or twice to change your view. that’s kinda excerise. Funny story about the WII, you get to pick a character for yourself, you get to give it a hairstyle and a body style, with glasses, without, and then when you step on the scale….well, let’s just say that my Billy Jean slim looking character turned into Rosanne Barr with glasses after the stupid thing weighed me. Who the hell makes these things? I went from being a fairly in shape 46 year old, to an obese (!) 58 year old. Wtf? who makes these things…..THAT’S what I think about exercise…lol….have a great day Lori
