Getting off the Couch 2

I have been doing a really good job of staying off the Couch. I have been walking my dog a lot and working out with my workout dance yourself slim tapes! I have lost 3 pounds in the last week. YAY me. My pants are getting a little bit lose.

Twilight

Kristen Stewart Compares Taylor Lautner And Robert Pattinson
NOV 11, 2009 AT 01:14 PM

Kristen Stewart compared her two leading men, Taylor Lautner and Robert Pattinson, when she sat down with Entertainment Tonight. I'm sure she had to tread carefully here! She says Taylor and Robert aren't much alike in real life.

"I mean, they're just completely different guys. I mean, Taylor's like really happy-go-lucky. He's really light and actually that sort of mirrors, that's how Jacob is too. He's always smiling and he's sort of ... he's just a really good guy."

As for Robert?

"Rob is a really good guy, too. He's like a little bit more ... I don't want to say that he's more complicated because I bet if you broke down their character, I bet they're both equally complex. I think Rob considers things a little bit more, I think he drives himself a little bit crazier, like as well as I do. If we could take a lesson from Taylor, I think me and Rob could probably both have easier lives."

Is that how they strike you (from watching the interviews, etc)?


This is how I picture both of them. Maybe it is because of their characters in the books. For me I would have picked Jake but for Bella I think Edward is perfect. I perfer them happy and pick me up when I am down.

Getting up off the Couch

Ok so I'm planning on starting to walk and run again. I haven't been doing anything lately and I really need to change that. All of the things that I enjoy doing involve sitting, sowing, knitting, and reading. Like most people I need encouragement. My hubby doesn't like me going walking by myself but he never wants to come with me. He also says that I am abandoning him when I go walking and he is at home. He makes it really hard to get out there and walk.

Extremely Loud and Incredible Close

So have you ever read a book that made you step back and look at your life...maybe made you think of everything and everyone you have lost. Well, Extremely Loud and Incredible Close was the book for me. Its about this 9 year old little boy whos father dies in September 11th. His dad always did treasure hunts with him. The little boy finds a key that he thinks is a clue from his dad so he sets out to find the lock that goes to this key. You can't help but laugh out loud when this little boy sets out to all of the Blacks in New York to find out what they know about his father and the lock. He makes friends with an old man that starts to go door to door with him to make sure he was ok. The ending is one that will make you cry and think about how unfair life is and why horrible things happen to little boys.

Books, books and more books

Well you know you have a problem when you can't even go to work for the day without a book. I have been taking in audiobook with me to to listen to when I am at work. It seems like I can't do anything without some kind of book. I go to walk the dog and have to have an audiobook on my mp3 holder. I know it is kind of sad but I just can't help it. It cheers me up and lately I have been needing some cheering up. I love to read and turn into the characters in the book. It feels great to get out of your head and live someone else's life.
