Three dogs and their pooper scooper

Welcome to yoonamania where I put down the nonsense that pops up in my head from time to time. Please do not expect to make any sense out of my blatherings. It's called nonsense for a reason. Nor should you expect to enjoy any good writing. My English sucks moose ass. But I don't really care since I'm sure your Korean isn't any better. Please try to keep your expectations low and just chill like potatoes... or beets... or parsnips. Oh and yeah, don't take it seriously unless you think I think you must.

Yours truly, etc. yoonamaniac

The Bathroom Scale

By yoonamaniac, on February 27, 2008

I have been gaining a lot of weight for a couple of years. I don’t know how much I weigh because I haven’t owned a bathroom scale since uh… who knows. I can’t even remember. But I do have some gray matter that says if I have to keep buying clothes one size up and up and up, and they keep getting tighter, that means I’m gaining weight. Well, ok, I’m getting fat fast and furious.

I don’t know why, really. I only eat until I’m full. If I’m not full, I eat a little more. Is there anything not right about that? It’s not my fault I have big appetites. Then there is this matter of not getting enough exercise. Well let me tell you something. I TRIED! But if you don’t have the time, then you don’t have the time! Make the time, you say, Oprah? Easy for you to say. I can’t afford to make the time. When I go home after work, I get to eat my dinner around 9:30pm if I’m lucky. I get only 5 or 6 hours of sleep. Tell me when I can friggin exercise! SHEESH!

Anyway getting back on track, around the beginning of this year – obviously, the resolution season, I was absolutely convinced that the reason I was getting fat was that I didn’t own a bathroom scale. So I got online, read the reviews, compared models for a couple of months and finally ordered this one from overstock.com. It’s being sold for $109.99 but I had some gift cards, so I paid $34.99 out of pocket. And the shiny brand spanking new bathroom scale arrived yesterday.

It looks so slick and smooth, it could very well be one of the best looking things in my place. How can I ever justify stepping on this gem of an instrument? This piece of equipment is supposed to tell me a shitload of things about my body. I’m so full of hope of losing weight. It’s going to just melt my fat away with its good looks, I’m sure of it. So I’ve decided to put it where I can see it and it can see me very often.

So the perfectly handsome bathroom scale has been in display on my coffee table basking in its soft silver glow. I’m very happy about this purchase and satisfied with the product. I highly recommend it.
