3 days til my next Former Phat Fcuks weigh in, no blog entry today.  I’m on my weigh (get it?) to the gym. 

 

 Hi, it’s Free Rice Friday.  Where you can play Free Rice and help fight world hunger.

Today’s Word – INEFFECTUAL = FUTILE

This is the part of the show where I banter around the word of the day in a humorous manner.  But as I was playing today, this word struck me because much of my life has felt very ineffectual to me lately. 

Be it going to the gym on a Saturday to be healthy only to get drunk at a party Saturday night and, realizing that yet again you’re just one of the guys, eating everything in sight.

Or giving up your Sunday to work really hard on a script, knowing in the back of your mind it’s going to need many more rewrites and the odds of getting it produced are very slim. 

Or shaving your legs from ankle to FA only to go unnoticed by the guy who seemed into you months before, when you still weren’t ready to even entertain the idea.

And even finding yourself being wicked funny on stage and proud of your fellow Improv classmates at your Level I Class show, only to realize that you no longer have a best friend to share your special night with.

I think most of us know why we eat too much. Or do anything we do too much, too much.  Comfort, anger, habit, frustration…  But that doesn’t make it easy to stop.  Because we’re human, and sometimes comfort is so illusive it feels miraculous those first few moments when you fool yourself into thinking you’ve found it within the fudgey recesses of an ice cream carton. 

The hardest part is feeling alone, ineffectual.  And maybe it’s strange.  But I see how many people have read my words, commented on posts, and donated to Bare Ass 2008!  And I don’t feel so alone.  That makes things easier.

May 10th is America’s Second Harvest’s STAMP OUT HUNGER FOOD DRIVE.  Using the giving calculator, I plugged in the amount raised so far for Bare Ass 2008!  A huge thank you to all that have donated.  Here’s what this kind of money translates to as part of the food drive:

• Feed  a family of four for 453 Weeks
• That is 38080 meals
• 47600 lbs of food
• $71400 worth of food

All from our  $1190 gift! Thank you all for being so Effectual.  CLICK HERE TO DONATE

On a constant quest for positive motivations for Bare Ass 2008!  I stumbled upon a great site called Skinny Songs.  Fun songs like Skinny Jeans, Use it to Lose it, and my fav (shocking that I love a revenge song) Blowin’ You Off at 8  designed to motivate your heiney back into (or in my case into for the first time) your skinny jeans.  What’s even cooler is that the next THREE DONORS to Bare Ass 2008! will receive their very own Skinny Songs CD.

Here are the results of my 20 min a day of exercise til Shakespeare’s Birthday:  I hit my goal 25 out of the 30 days.  But sadly my Abs and Arms routine feel to the way side after the first week.  I FAILED!  (picture me yelling and throwing my arms into the air)
