Salty Sal

Well, I haven't talked to y'all much lately. Gettin' lazy. But ever since Christmas I have been more and more annoyed by these silly rubber bracelets that every Tom, Dick and Harry have on their wrists. I just have to rant about it. It's so ridiculous! People checking every few minutes how many steps they've taken, how many stairs they've climbed, how many minutes they slept. Does that thing count how many times they farted? How many times they burped? How many times they had sex and for how long? How many hours they watched TV? Let's get real. Who cares? Just live your life. Everything doesn't have to be counted and analyzed just because we can. It sets us all up for more and more competition. Relax, people. How about a bracelet that counts how many hugs you gave, how many times you laughed so hard you peed your pants, how long you spent talking to a friend (I do have some!), how long you gazed at the moon or stared at a sunset, how long you soaked in a hot tub. As far as I'm concerned those are things worth counting!

  1. Ha ha ha! This made me laugh, even though Mike and I just this week got the clip-on version! We are having a great time doing what my friend, Pam Brewer, once told me to do... EAT LESS, MOVE MORE... and competing with each other as we do it! Yep, we are ridiculous. Sometimes it is fun to be ridiculous, Salty Sal.
