Sticking it to the man

This morning, when my clock radio went off, I rolled over, and without conscious thought, turned it off. I slept a total of an extra 58 minutes. 58 glorious extra minutes! It wasn't just good - it was full on Tony the Tiger Grrreat. It meant I didn't make my get up early goal for the day and I had to do some rushing around, but it was totally worth it. I felt so much more like me all day today.

In other news, apparently I should complain about the stock market more regularly, since all three of the major indices posted crazy gains today. Yippee! Now let's keep our fingers crossed that they don't all turn around and drop again tomorrow. Slow and steady growth, please. Good for the economy, good for jobs, good for all of us.

And finally, does anyone watch the Biggest Loser? Why didn't they vote anyone off tonight? And how fake was Bob's "Oh my gosh, Mark is back!" act? Also, why are the girls being whiny babies? Yes, it is unfair that men lose more weight and lose it faster than women. In fact, it sucks. But you're ten weeks in to the show - it's not like that is brand new information. Oh, and who do you think would win a cage match between Jillian and Allison Sweeney? Jillian looks tough, but Allison's got all those years as Sami on Days of Our Lives under her belt. That's got to count for something.
