the biggest loser


so i'm on my way home last night at around 8:something (which is super early as of late, because work has been extra shiteous but that's a whole other post), and i was thinking
oh yay! the biggest loser is on tonight! at that point i decided that leaving work this early ~ PLUS the two hour television extravaganza ~ warranted a trip to the grocery store. i thought i'd celebrate by having my favorite dinner of baked ruffles, onion dip and red vines.

tho once i was in my pj's and big socks, settled in on my couch, surrounded by all of my treats, the irony of the whole thing kind of dawned on me... ooooh, wait a minute. i get it now. the biggest loser isn't a show about weight loss, it's the story of my life. this is about me. ME. omg, i'm the biggest loser. look at me! yes i am a loser. i totally am! this is PATHETIC. i am pathetic!

i can't believe this is my life. (have i written about this before? probably. but i'm too lazy to figure it out.) but anyway, yes ~ because now utmost happiness equals really bad processed food and somewhat scary network tv?!?!?

like i said: pathetic.

as our friend ryan said to jdp in turks, "um, i think you could have tried a little harder." well i think that should be my new mantra. i think i need to try a little harder. or actually, just try. i'm clearly not making a whole lot of effort here to improve my quality of life. you know, in case that wasn't already evident.

and speaking of other people who also maybe need to get a life (or perhaps they're just running our of websites to surf)... i actually got a COMPLAINT from two (out of my eight) readers, mc and hb: "hey tee, when are you gonna post something new? we've been looking at that boy for months!!" of course it had been so long i couldn't even remember who they were talking about.

ha ha! and you thought that you were sick of looking at jay? well tell me how you feel after two months looking at this fella... :D

if you're pathetic, i'm a lost cause. eating chips and dip in my pjs while watching reality tv sounds great to me!!

i am beyond excited that there's a new post- nay TWO new posts! sweet ass sweet (as dear nikki freadhoff used to say)! i must echo heather b's comment- if you're a pathetic cause, then we're all pathetic lost causes! and what is it with that show (the biggest loser) that makes me want to eat more and exercise less? weird. anyways, thanks for posting- i miss you!
