Ugh - did I really say I would start pseudo-dieting again on June 1? Why, yes, yes I did. And since I said it, I have to at least try. I forgot to weigh myself this morning though. And it's Friday. That's two strikes against me. Boooo.

A coworker found this thing on the internet that says today is "National Leave Work Early" day. He made up a petition for all of us to sign. I hope it works! Although, my guess is that even if it does, they'll close the office after I've already gone, because I leave earlier than everyone else. Sooo not fair. Must slack to compensate.

This week's thefridayfive seems awfully familiar, but I think we've just done bits of it here and there before. Grammar corrected in multiple places ^_^ My answers are kinda lame but here ya go:

1. You're holding a dinner party and can invite three famous people from the past or present -- who would they be? Hayden Christensen, Steve Finley, and Kevin Costner. Color me shallow.

2. You have the opportunity to question someone about something you've always wanted to know and receive a truthful answer -- what would your question be? I think I'd question my ex-fiance about certain puzzling things from our relationship... but that was eons ago and I've pretty much laid it to rest sooooooo I dunno. I fail at this question.

3. If you could change one thing in your life, what would it be? I'd be rich. Duh. Oh, do you mean things within my control? Too bad, you get a snarky answer.

4. If you could save the lives of other people by completing an act that would lead to your own death, would you do it? This is a LOST question! Yay! Um... maybe? I've generally felt that the lives of others are more worthwhile than my own. So if I could muster up the cajones, I think yeah, I would.

5. Would you commit murder if you knew you could get away with it? There's no one I despise enough to kill, fortunately. Even if there were, I don't think it's up to me to take his/her life.

You know, you should never start a diet at the end of a week. It needs to be a Monday you start. Everything else is just doomed to failure right from the beginning!

Good point. But - but - it's June 1st! The first of the month is a good time to start.

Bah. I should just accept that I'm getting fat and go buy new clothes.

I agree that living well is the best revenge.

One day at a time, definitely. Hmmmm. It sucks that I'm already hungry and already thinking about dinner (at 12:08pm!) Maybe I'll go to Long John's "one last time" and be good the rest of the weekend.

"Good" being relative. I have lots of cheap food to eat that's not exactly healthy, but I can control the QUANTITY and I can cut out the pure crap (like, I don't need to eat a bag of microwave popcorn EVERY SINGLE DAY - this is my greatest weakness of late)

Damnit, LJ - now I have to see thecakeblog every time I log in. WILL NOT CLICK ON IT, WILL NOT CLICK ON IT, WILL NOT CLICK ON IT (can you tell what's another great weakness of mine? lol)

Kevin Costner?! But why???

[lumy12.livejournal.com]

Are you serious? Kevin is DA BOMB! He popped in my head because of his new movie opening this weekend. I was obsessed with him in the early 90s. Not so much anymore, but I'd still love to have dinner with him.

You don't like Titanic, though, so what do you know? :P

Ohhh! I should have said Leo. I fail. It's been too many hours, I'm not changing my answer now.

giggle :)
Leo I can grasp. (wishful thinking.)

Costner gives me the creeps :(

Good on you though!
You can join his harem and I'll take up with Liam Neeson ;)

Okay! Notice I didn't say Ewan McGregor - too many peeps on my f-list would have my head.

Of course you were right to say Costner. You still need to catch The Upside of Anger (it's on the movie channels enough, so watch it already for chrissakes!). It's jolly good fun, and he plays his part well in a usual Costner type role as a former baseball player. It's a Mike Binder flick so you know it has some fun dialogue but no you don't know cuz you'll be all who the eff is Mike Binder, but just trust me. Plus you like Evan Rachel Wood, so there's another reason.

I noticed the review in the paper for his new movie (didn't really read it of course) and that looks interesting too.

You gave 2/3 of a good answer to that first one. Just drop the first douche and you're on your way to having a great dinner.

Ha! You say that now. Wait 'til Hayden comes around and decides to fall madly in love with me. He'll be hanging out over here, and you'll look at him and feel a strange tingliness in your stomach. And you'll think, "WTF? I'm not gay! Or... am I?"

Bwahahaha!

Yes, all boys should be gay. Even brothers.
