Irving: Will you embark on a healthy lifestyle with me? Cathy: Only if you break the happy news to Mom. Couples hiking...couples biking...couples climbing...couples kayaking...couples surfing... Couples with buff abs and flat little tummies....couples with sculpted waists and toned rears...couples in skimpy skintight sportswear... Summer 2003: The pressure to have a perfect body has officially been replaced...by the pressure to have two perfect bodies.
I’ve always wondered about all these [supposedly] super-active couples with “buff abs and flat little tummies” . . . do they not have jobs, homes, chores, children, or any number of a thousand other things that keep the rest of us ordinary couples from having the free time it takes to hike, bike, climb, kayak, surf and work out together? Because, quite frankly, after I’m done doing everything I have to do every single day of my life, I’m way too exhausted to do anything else but collapse at the end of the day!!!!!
Hi, rgcviper!
lightenup: How’s Jr. doing?
Hello and Happy Monday, fellow “Cathy” fans. Hope everyone had a really nice day today! What started off as a slight sore throat and cough on Friday morning developed into a full-blown, kick-ass cold that had me down and out the entire weekend — too tired and sick to do anything but lay on the couch, not wanting to do anything, and just wishing for the sweet relief that death would bring me. Thankfully, I lived through the worst of it and finally felt well enough to get online today for the first time since then so that I could come spend time with all my friends here on “Cathy’s Corner.” So nice to “see” you all again!!!!!
