People Suck

So I’m planning my little sister’s bridal shower… I carefully picked the invitations, wording inside the invitations and now I am attempting to gather up some sort of menu and parting gifts. Apparently people expect some kinda chotchkie thing at these events. The problem here is, only 3 people have bothered to RSVP. And I was so kind as to put both the phone number and email address for reaching me on the invitation. So why is no one telling me if they are going to come or not? It seems that I’m only going to have me, sis and 3 others there…nice small party, I wont need to rent any chairs…we can booze it up on a 6 pack…or maybe two 6 packs and a bottle of wine.

Why can’t people grant others the courtesy of saying, Yeah I’ll be there or Can’t make it? How can I figure out how much food and drink and chairs to provide if you can’t get off your lazy ass and tell me you’ll be there!!

All y’all suck!

Don’t Do It!

In light of the recent loss of weight, I’ve come to the relaization that if I am going to be serious about this Weight Watchers plan I’d really better start exercising. I mentioned this to my friend and she promptly warned me that exercise causes Mad Cow Disease. To which I replied, “But I thought it caused Anthrax or the Hanta Virus.” I’ve got the Anthrax vaccine already.
Sadly, I fear she may be right. I don’t ever hear about “Don-Couch-Potato” pulling groin muscles or throwing out an elbow. But all these sports players seem to be falling apart. I’m not sure I want to join the ranks of blown knee joints, tennis elbow and torn ligaments. I wonder if I’m just better off sitting on my lovely couch.

In other news. I got an email from the yarn people telling me that may latest order was shipped…I got the package yesterday, I think their emailer got a little behind.
