Miscellaneous Claptrap

It would be nice if I didn't always have to preface everything I say with the words "And Don't Freak Out." I find myself saying that a lot lately. I'm not the most patient person, but living with someone who has absolutely zero patience makes me look like the Dalai Lama. No kidding.

This morning I was swishing mouthwash around while getting packed for the pool. VC asked me a question at which point I realized I had just swallowed the mouthwash. Focus. Danielson. Focus.

I've been slowly piecing together my bellydance costume from different ebay sites. Some hits. Some misses. Another class member spent $150 on the bra top alone...Hoping that I won't look like some rag tag outcast bellydancer dragged in off the street. I may.

Magic Shell has 16 grams of fat per two tablespoon serving. That's a lot. Someone tweeted about a new study that concluded that people who are a little overweight at age 40 live 6 to 7 years longer than very thin people, who lived the shortest. I'll have some more Magic Shell. Thanks. Imagine all the brilliant blog posts I could concoct if I was to live an extra 7 years?

Speaking of living extra years, have you read this article about the baby who has barely aged in 16 years. Simply amazing. It could hold the key to the Fountain of Youth....In the meantime, focus on becoming a little overweight- at least it'll buy you 7 years.
