I have at least a thousand things to do today. OK…it’s really more like a hundred (OK…a dozen), but I’m a lover of hyperbole. What am I doing instead of jumping all over that mammoth to-do list? Well, isn’t that obvious? I’m blogging. Because I’m trying on procrastination for size.
And speaking of size…upon seeing pictures taken of me at this weekend’s festivities in NY, I have decided I’m never eating again. Really. I’m huge. True, I birthed triplets 4 years ago. That was a marvelous excuse for a while. I fear it’s losing its luster at this point, though. And as I’ve been unable to come up with any suitable replacement excuse, I feel I am now forced to face the alternative. Diet. Ugh. You’ll probably be tortured with entries about said diet, so be ye prepared. I need you to hold me accountable. Oprah had her viewers. I have you. No pressure. 
So. Funny story from our flight to NY Friday. I was a wee bit nervous because this was the first time hubby and I have flown together since the kids were born. We prayed together before take-off and things were still a little somber until we reached cruising altitude and the flight attendants began beverage/lunch service. We had previously noticed an Orthodox Jew seated across the aisle from us and hubby had commented on how seeing the gentleman in that traditional clothing reminded him of his childhood in Brooklyn. The flight attendant got to our row and looked at the man and asked, “turkey or ham-and-cheese, sir?” I think our juvenile giggling had finally subsided as we began our approach in Newark. I hope we didn’t offend the man, but it was sure nice to have a comedic diversion.
OK, I’ll have to tell you my other funny stories some other time. I’ve got important things to do now…beginning with my dvr’d season premiere of Desperate Housewives (never accuse me of having misplaced priorities).

Okay, if dieting alone doesn’t do the trick for you, you’ve got to try the 30-Day Shred DVD. It will kick your butt into shape really quickly! It’s not for the faint of heart, but you will certainly feel like you are doing something proactive about that extra “baby” weight! (And yes – I still refer to my baby weight even though my little darling will be five this month!)
