You're going to be humilated whether you like it or not if you just do dog walks. Mags, you’re not getting off so easy next week.

However, I have somehow managed to lose 5 lbs. anyway (must be the dog walks), so no public humilitation just yet. ~mags Despite my best intentions, I have been to the gym only once in the past two weeks, owing to the sudden appearance of two teenagers taking up residence in my home.

The skies outside of the open window were exploding with vertical thunderbolts (matching my black-and-white Art Deco bathroom). Perfect conrast. Consumed delicious dinner (beef roasted with garlic, shallots, cranberries and remnants of red californian wine; cuscus with sun-dried tomatoes), polished it with cognac and coffee <a href="http://www.cafebritt.com/AboutCoffee/index.cfm?view=52&item=1546" rel="nofollow">glacee</a>, Changed into favorite smooth and shiny garment, lied down on a fresh crisp sheets with Antony Powell's book and felt lovely. M3, don't you realised Neil wants you to do something UNPLEASANT? Not walking/singing in the rain. You only have 2 choices: to torture yourself in the gym or to feel guilty for not torturing yourself (and pay for it, literally) Either way, you lose. And I win. I send money to charity when I feel charitable, not succumbing to blackmail. No gilt about my pleasures (I didn't give you a full list, naturally). Look and feel radiant. Sick people, you. Went walking Saturday and Sunday in the rain.(M3)

Don't you know that the only <i>real</i> way to stay in shape is by taking laxitives and undergoing continuous plastic surgery. I scoff at your barbaric means of fitness.
