Following in the fine tradition of...

bravery and class as exhibited by the uber-talented Dixie Chicks, here is our fine junior senator, John F'ing Kerry, once again blasting America and all things American from the comfort of his home turf, Europe. God forbid he have the balls to do it from whence he truly came (he is still an American, isn't he??)
Keep 'em coming, Johnny Baby!!! Keep reading from that oh-so-tired and highly distorted leftist playbook! A good laugh first thing in the morning is always appreciated!

I Have....

2 pounds to go till I reach the 50# loss mark-YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am so proud of myself! And..... I put in a 5 miler this morning!
Am I invinsible? No, but it sure does feel good feeling like I am!

You go, James Joyce!

I thought that I had lost this pic forever- thank goodness for floppies!
Hiya, Miles! 

Oh. My. Gawd.

A Yes, it's true.. your eyes are not playing tricks on you...
that is a WHITE shirt that I am wearing. Not black. Not navy. Not dark any color but stark raving mad WHITE....Yes, I have taken another step out of my comfort zone,and it feels sooooo good!!
What comfort zone, you may be asking? My 'all black clothes, all the time' comfort zone. My 'I'm too tired to walk, too busy to exercise' comfort zone. My 'it's bad to speak your mind, and stick up for yourself' comfort zone. Little by little, I get nudged out of my zone of comfort by others( in a most good way), and I take myself the rest of the way, and trite as this may sound(but I don't really care if it does anyhoo) it truly is empowering, liberating and happiness producing. I have never felt healthier, prettier, sexier, stronger or smarter in my life....and the trigger for all of this growth and wicked good stuff that is happening to myself is ...... losing 45 pounds. While of course, aesthetically it has made a difference, and I'd be lying if I said that how I look to others doesn't factor into anything at all or matter, mentally it has done wonders. I just feel so damn GOOD!! And I have a feeling that some of that good..aura, for lack of a better word, radiates to others. At least I hope that it does. Everyone should feel this way alot.
I know that I am not invincible, and there are to be more than my share of bumps and obstacles in the road up ahead, but truly, right at this moment, I feel as if I can do anything ... so therefore, why not go for it then, huh? Why not prove to myself that I can do anything that I set my mind to, or at the least, put forth one hell of an effort? And if I don't succeed? Well, I may not get what I want, but.... I will have no regrets nor remorse hanging over my naturally still kinda blonde head.
