I've decided... and other thoughts (rants)...

Well I have decided to join a gym, Nubody's to be exact. I came to this conclusion when I went to get a pair of jeans at the thrift store and what I THOUGHT was my size didn't fit! The same size that I have worn for last last few years. I didn't really think that I was gaining weight because my clothes that I already own fit me. But OBVIOUSLY they are stretching right along with my body! It is not that I eat all that bad, it is because I don't exercise. I swim a couple times a week, but that is just not cutting it! I am joining Nubody's because they offer classes like Pilates and Yoga, which are fun! Plus they have a really good corporate rate for the company I work for.

Now it is time to rant a little bit... A couple has moved into the apartment next to us and they are driving us CrAzY! Actually I should say that SHE is driving us crazy... she is SOOOOOO LOUD and I don't just mean a little bit loud, I mean SUPER LOUD. It is her voice. She can't talk at a normal tone, she YELLS all the time. Whenever she watches a funny tv show or movie she laughs sooo LOUD! You are probably thinking "so what, she's loud, get over it". It wouldn't bother me so much except she is only loud from 11pm and on. It seems like just as I am on the verge of sleep she cackles! It seriously sounds like she is in bed with us. This would drive anyone crazy that has to get up for work in the morning... but the thing that really makes me mad is the fact that tonight, when we were putting up curtains, at 8pm, her boyfriend had the NERVE to yell "Stop banging!!" at us out the window...

And then there is the couple that sits on their balcony 24-7 with about 10 torches lit. Everytime I look out the window and see those darn torches (that light up OUR entire apartment I must add) the theme song from "Survivor" goes through my head...

AHHH... the joys of apartment living...

OMG you are TOOOOO funny! I was cackling right along reading about the brou-ha-ha going on next door! I'd shoot the fire extinguisher at the torch couple, or ask them what the next immunity challenge is. OMG that would be sooo funny....re: the cackleaholic, purposely cackle from 8 pm onward. Like on Friday nights or REAL early Saturday/Sunday mornings. Just spontaneously cackle! RE: them telling you to stop the banging, tell them "Oh, I would but we're still on the honeymoon!"

HEEHEEEEE

Ah yes, the joys of apartment living! I can remember those times! Yuk! But it is amazing what you get used to aftr awhile!

Wanted to stop by and say that you for stopping by my blog and leaving the very nice comment.

I would like to say, that I realize there are plenty of people in other countries that do care about the current disaster in the US right now. And I guess I should have said something along that line. What I was getting at in my statements is the governments from other countries are not stepping up to help and that there may be a very good reason for it. Bush has done a very good job of ticking off a lot of other countries governments by his actions that represent the whole US. The other govenments have choses to take a stand, which I can't blame them on doing. But that does not mean they don't care. We have the same problem here, where our govenment will do something making it appear that we as the citizens do not care but we care deeply. But the government with their actions makes it look like we all feel the same way.

Thank you for your caring and letting it be known.
