Wednesday's Ass Project Update

Mrs. G had a great idea - take a shot of her ass, blog it and encourage us all to get down with her and get rid of these jiggly butts. And "Ass Project 08" was born (see the button on my side bar)

of course I lack the nerve to take a photo of my butt in granny pants. But that's why Mrs. G. rocks so hard.

And since Ass project '08 started and I vowed to get back to my exercise and all? How have I been doing? well....

I have rediscovered Hot Fudge Sundaes and gained another couple pounds. I don't think this is what Mrs. G had in mind.....

I did make a photo copy for ~~Friend~~ (sorry) Captain Rainman of my Ab Lounger workout book b/c he didn't have the book but had the lounger. We were going to encourage each other from 1000 miles away to get toned between meet-ups! He's doing treadmills and pushups and situps. And I'm eating Ice Cream. Hmmmmm.

OK SO TODAY I will really really really dive into the Ass Project. I can't let Mrs. G down! Or the Captain! By Next Wednesday when Captain Rainman Returns to my world to join me at BUFFETT (see countdown clock in sidebar) there WILL. BE. PROGRESS!!

Maybe I'll even take a photo...

So, you're actually going to take a PHOTO of your posterior and post it on your blog for all the world to see?! So, this is like weight loss/exercise through self-humiliation?? LOL... :-)
I'm just teasing... hey, seriously, whatever works!
I've gained a good 5 lbs over the Summer so maybe I should consider joining this little (or in my case LARGE project)... but I'm afraid a photo of my posterior would emotionally SCAR people!

btw - how is the new puppy?; August 20, 2008 at 9:23 PM

This ASS PROJECT is the funniest thing I've seen in a while. Thanks for the laugh, and stop by my place anytime. The margaritas are always cold there.; August 21, 2008 at 11:46 AM

Sugar Jones said...: Ass Project? Oh my! It's inspired, that's for sure! I have been doing the opposite for the last several weeks, seems like. Well, actually, I finally got my ass back to running and hiking. I got lazy over the summer... But hey... so jealous about the Buffet Party! He usually shows up in Orange County in September or October. I used to go with a big group of friends every year. Haven't done that in a LONG time.

Hmmm... Maybe I'll go with you. Where do you live??? ;) hahaha; August 22, 2008 at 4:51 PM

Katy said...: This is SO on topic I can hardly stand it.

I gave you a KICK ASS blogger award, check out my blog. So kick more ass, or photograph it, whatever floats your boat. ;-); August 24, 2008 at 1:40 AM

The Cast Of Characters

Me: See about me above

Son: 21 YO, back at college after taking a "break" between his Sophomore and Junior year of college (which lasted exactly 1 semester before he had to go back of his own accord...), ridiculously funny, adorable, smart, athletic, musically gifted and pusher of all my buttons. He's the reason doctors invented Valium.

Daughter: 21 YO SENIOR! in College, intelligent, funny, organized, beautiful, sweet, "blond", thoughtful, friendly, musically gifted, athletic, shortest temper on the planet when it comes to her twin brother. She's the reason vinters invented wine.

The Captain: My "Friend" in earlier posts, my partner, my housemate, my confidante, my Boss's friend of over 25 years. Yeah that's weird. But he is really awesome. And the Love of my Life.

EX: The man I was married to for 20 years who lived next door. Now he's dating the girlfriend he had before we met and pretends I never existed. Really. OH and his GF and I could be twins...except for the outgoing personality part. She is, my children tell me, very sweet and kind and I'm thrilled for them that she is.

Queen Bee: My now deceased 12 YO lab who had gone haywire. She pretended she couldn't hear you when you called her, but the word "TREAT" always got a reaction. She randomly forgot things - like in the middle of fetching the ball forgot what she was doing. She was the best dog ever.

Stinky: AKA Stinky Butt Daughter's Jack Russell who is no longer a Puppy but will always be the "Baby."

GoofusMarufus: The New Rescue Mutt we picked up while visiting Daughter in College. She is gorgeous, funny, but afraid of the strangest things. And she still hasn't learned to sail, sigh. And Stinky Butt, while home on break from College, taught her baaaaaad things!

DRD: Dumb Runaway Dog - Ex's lab who I used to babysit when we lived next door. She's a runner and ended up in the doggy hospital one night. Not. My. Fault. (I was not home!)
