today i was folding laundry and watching tv. i caught the last part of a movie, starring a beautiful, skinny star. there was a scene that showed her jogging.
jogging! when does she have time to jog? she (in the movie) has a demanding job that she must work many hours per week at. i know she has to work a lot, because she owns an expensive, beautiful, ginormous lake front condo. how could she possibly have time to jog? during daylight hours?
i mean, really. as a health care professional, i know the benefits of exercise, but who has the time?you know the drill: get up with the baby, feed and tend her, then the other kid wakes up, she needs food and attention. shower, eat, clean up the toys (several times), make lunch, make dinner, go shopping, fold laundry, have a (relatively) quiet minute to myself, sleep, work, pay bills, run errands, talk to my husband, worry about my 401k. when in the heck am i supposed to go jogging?
how can i be held to that kind of standard? these beautiful people, they're everywhere. perfect hair, perfect skin, great body, and she jogs. gawd, i might as well just kill myself right now.
