- You know you’re old when Hollywood starts releasing remakes of old movies… and you went and saw the original when it was first released to theatres back in “the day”. First there was Amityville Horror, and more recently I shouted “Noooooo!!!” at the TV screen when I saw the commercial for the Bad News Bears. What next? Blue Lagoon? Little Darlings?? Stop remaking my childhood, Hollywood.
- You know you are dedicated to going to your Weight Watchers meeting when your only form of transportation, your mobility scooter, dies on you when you are way across the parking lot and half way over the LRT (train) ramp; yet you manage to get it home, call a taxi, and arrive at your meeting just in time.
- You know you’re a ditz when you realize that the reason your scooter died in the first place is because your battery charger has been unplugged from the wall ever since the cleaning lady was last here and must have removed it, so every night that you have been plugging the charger into the scooter it hasn’t been doing a damn thing.
- You know you’re good at writing business plans when your client writes you back with “WOW!” in the subject after you email it to him.
- You know it’s going to be “one of those days” when a 10 minute chiropractor appointment turns into a three-and-a-half hour waiting/driving festival with Access Calgary.
- You know you’ve got it goin’ ON when the Access Calgary driver practically has an accident because he can’t seem to take his eyes off you long enough to look at the road.
- You know you’re serious about weight loss when you say “no” to an extra piece of Moxie’s focaccia cheese toast, which is only your favourite thing on their menu (besides the desserts. But we won’t go there).
- You know everything is going to be okay when you said “no” to focaccia cheese toast and didn’t feel icicles forming at your feet which proves, in fact, that Hell did not freeze over.
- You know you’re cool when teenagers that don’t have to like you actually do, and even want to hang out with you in public and everything.
- You know you’re a nerd when you get hours of entertainment out of Google, Googlism, and Wikipedia.
- You know you have good karma when a friend calls because she has a “delivery” for you, and shows up with a gorgeous leather La-Z-Boy recliner in perfect condition and just gives it to you because she doesn’t have room for it, and doesn’t expect a damn thing in return.
- You know you have a retail therapy problem when you are sorting through things you want to sell at a yard sale, and realize that a lot of the things you can sell are still in their original packaging.
- You know you’re clumsy when you cut your thumb while using the chopper you bought to prevent you from having accidents in the kitchen and cutting yourself.
- You know you are determined when every day you go to meditate and try to get to the Alpha State but are unable to, yet continue to try every day, believing one day the elusive Alpha Level of Mind awaits you and everything you desire will be within reach. Hee!
- You know you can make a difference when the person you have been voting for the past two weeks on Rock Star: INXS hasn’t been in the bottom three, and she was before you started voting. Yes. You are welcome, Suzie girl, rock on sistah!
- You know you’re Donna when you don’t know how to end your blog entry so you have to ask Emma.
Talk to me! I won't bite.
“You know you’re Donna when you don’t know how to end your blog entry so you have to ask Emma. ” HAHA!! So true, too. So true. ehehehehehe
Donna-you crack me up!!
I didn’t realize you had met Suzie! That’s very cool! I do like Jordis though, can we still be friends? ha ha
Jordis is wicked awesome and I think she could very well take this thing. I’m voting for Suzie for now because I’d like to see her stick around for awhile and come out of this with a great career… but I don’t see her as “right for our band, INXS”. I’m rooting for Jordis as the overall winner at this point!
lol I HATE how they always say that ‘you just aren’t right for our band INXS’ we KNOW your name already! ha ha
