Go and participate. Go to read. Just go already.
This week, I’m choosing Prompt 2, which involves writing about 10 things I can do in three minutes. Can you figure out which one of the 10 is a total lie?
- Run a mile.
- Plunge my family into financial ruin by accidentally purchasing this book from Amazon. (Note: In case you don’t feel like clicking on the link, the book costs $1,754,383.00 but you can get free shipping!)
- Eat a half package of Thin Mints.
- “Clean” my house by closing doors to all messy rooms.
- Lose all interest in doing any more exercising.
- Fall asleep — anytime, anyplace, anywhere.
- Read an entire issue of Us Weekly from cover to cover.
- Complete my entire “beauty” routine.
- Watch an hour-long TV show using a DVR.
- Convince myself that getting a haircut just like Victoria Beckham will make me actually look like Victoria Beckham — including having her superskinny body. (See photo below for how this delusion looks in my head.)
LOL! Hmmmm…..I wish I could run a mile in 3 minutes. My house would probably be a lot cleaner if I could move at that speed.
Great pick of a blogger this week. I really enjoy her blog too!
That picture is too much. TOO MUCH! If there was a way to make my comment font 46 pt, I would type "TOO MUCH!" over and over and over! <3
You look much better as you than as Victoria!
Hope you don’t get that virus that your son has!
I’m going to just take a stab in the dark and say the running a mile in 3 mins is the lie. I hope you didn’t really purchase that book. Why is it so much, is that for real? You look great as Victoria Beckham.
You sooooooo look like Posh Spice!!!! I’ve seen lots of face in the hole pics, but thisis definitely the best!!!
I wish I could fall asleep in three minutes. It’s a race everynight to fall asleep before my hubby starts snoring.
Wait…You mean that haircut did not make me look jsut like her? Are you lying? Quit playing with me!!!
Oh and you can’t buy that book beause I already bought all the copies, lol. hehehe
I love your blog!
and someone please give Victoria Beckham a hamburger!
ROFL at the pic! Oh man, the hair isn’t so bad
I think you and I are neck and neck on killing a package of thin mints
Bwahahaha! I think you may be right. We ARE the same person! My list could be the same as yours.
OMG! That picture of you/Victoria Beckham is too hilarious!! Too skinny too!! That woman needs to put some meat on her. Not healthy. One. Bit!
if you can run a 3 minute mile, i am damn impressed
#3 is obviously a lie. No one can eat just half a package of Thin Mints.
You are priceless! I bet that you can’t run a 3-minute mile.
That picture is awesome!
I run a 10 minute mile…so if you can do it in 3 I am going to have to hate you!
LOVE that picture..make it yout profile picture!
OMG. I love your picture. I am still giggling. I “stole” your idea last week and posted my morph. I don’t think I will steal your idea this week… Nothing could top that photo. OMG…
As always, a perfect gem of a post!! First, if you can run a 3-minute mile, then you are definitely lying about swearing off excercise. Second, US Weekly doesn’t take you more like FOUR minutes to get through, with all that celebrity photoshop work?
Speaking of.. until I read Sophia’s comment, I thought it WAS V.Beckham’s picture, face and all.
Speaking of lies.. half a package of Thin Mints=One Sleeve=ONE minute. C’mon.
Thanks for the props!!! I’m not sure I deserve them!
OK, you have me rolling with this one. You “clean” house like I do! LMAO!
That Victoria Beckham image is BEYOND brilliant!
well, I think I could probably eat the entire box in that time!!
I like CDB too! Already follow her. LOL and the first glance I had at that photo I thought I was looking at a relative of yours! LOL but then I realized the distortion.
You clean just like I do! Quick and easy!
I knew you like to read but wow that must be some book! Love the “cleaning” idea….I think that will now become my cleaning routine! Hey it worked for me…..that hair would so make you look like her and that pic is proof!! Wow you have one rockin’ body must be all those 3 minute miles you run! lol
You never fail to crack me up, my friend. Never.
Thanks for stopping by my blog today. Yeah butt cam is a good thing….Great post by the way….I “want” that book too!
My guess is the 3 minute mile, unless you have super long legs and have super human speed.
No wonder Victoria Beckham always seemed to squint in her pictures,the poor girl needed glasses!
I’d have to say the 3 minute mile is still not a reality – the rest I could believe. BTW, it you are going to pay a million for a book, have I got a deal for you! I’ll even include a live reading as well as free shipping. {*grin*}
You and my husband are kindred spirits – he too can eat a package of thin mints in 3 minutes. Thus, we have a rule – no thin mints in the house! Thanks for sharing.
LOL Run a mile? My guess is that’s the lie
and I love CDB! Yay!
Only a half a bag of Thin Mints?? Oh come on, I know you could find your inner Kobiyashi (the hot dog eating kid) and kill that box in 3 mins. Tried the Edys Thin Mints ice cream?? Dont, I promise you its not worth it if youre dreaming for Becks body, cause you know shes never had ice cream in her life!
I love it! Hey, it looks like you’ve got mustard on your chin as Victoria Beckham. And tell that girl to eat a cheeseburger or something! Gotta go check out CDB now.
Oh wow! That picture is something else.
I love that picture too! Victoria must be a robot or something. Who could be THAT skinny! I like your cleaning house routine. Out of sight, hopefully out of mind
I love CDB’s blog too. It’s always a great place to visit
OMG! I love that picture. Here I have been spending my time photoshopping my head when there has been a site to do it for you! That’s awesome.
Very amusing. The FaceinHole portrait was priceless… even with the cookie chin. (It took a moment to figure that out. I thought Victoria had had a run-in with a waffle iron or something.) I had a tough time with this prompt… not sure whether we were talking about 10 things crammed into one 3-minute time segment or ten separate 3-min. items. I am so with you on #8.
You never cease to entertain. Good Lord, woman.
I love CDB too, by the way. I enjoy her blog very much.
It sounds like we have the same idea of cleaning. Great list!
I think you found a way to make posh spice a bit scary. My goodness…
Yay for fingers and paws – it’s a fabulous blog.
