Alright... so I'll be at work until 5 which gives me a significant amount of time to blog...however, I don't think I have anything interesting to say. *all viewers sign off here*

Faces I Love to Look At

(when I'm having an ugly day...)

             I think we can all relate to feeling like we've been beaten with an ugly stick. I felt that way waking up today. My face is a good indicator of how well I slept through the night. However instead of having the "well rested look", I look a lot like a yellow Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle. My eyes get puffy, my face looks bloated, my lips grow to a size that would totally tank Angelina Jolie's pillowy mouth.

              Plastic surgery. No no, I'm not considering it. After an hour or two, my face deflates and I look like myself again, but within those few hours I keep from standing next to people far more attractive than myself. Sure, it sounds dumb and shallow of me to do so, but it's for my own good. It will just kill my already belittled self-esteem. I also like to consider then following plastic surgery travesties for an ego boost:

Steve Erhardt has had 30 + procedures, including pecs implants. They look kinda tranny.

Jenny Lee was featured on an The Oprah Winfrey Show on an episode entitled Obsessed with Perfection. She was GORGEOUS before all the surgery.

Italian fashion designer Donatella Versace is not only creative on the runway, she's very creative on...her face.

My personal favorite is Jocelyn Wildenstein. I'm not sure what she's famous for besides her extremes in plastic surgery. She has affectionately been dubbed The Lion Queen.

*Sigh*..I feel so much better.

             I had a random tidbit a few posts back regarding the dumbness of bottled water, concluding that the use of reusable bottles was definitely a way to help the environment. Well I purchased a bottle. I carry it with me, trying to keep tallies on how much water I get in---which was the original reason of getting one. I brought it to school one day and my teacher stopped me mid-sip and told me my bottle was poisoness.

             Mr. W. is quite silly and I really can't tell when I should take him seriously. "Yeah.. the bottle is made of plastic that leaches poison into your drink. What is that water?" I say, "Yes..." and he goes, "Water is very good for you," to which I replied, "Not anymore."

           So I did some research and found out that some recycled plastics are terrible for humans, especially young children. The chemicals in it mimick the effects of hormones and can effect growth and development in a very bad way, causes breast cancer in women, exposure in the uterus to babies may contribute to the baby's obesity later. After reading this I freaked out! However, I soon found an article that answered my worries. It listed #4 LDPE (which is what my bottle is made of) as a safe plastic. Nonetheless, I am now in search for a glass or stainless steel bottle.

           Though more studies are being made on the topic, I don't understand why this doesn't put more people into action. I think even the littlest skepticism should be enough to knock the bottles off the shelves, but according to this current article, Wal-mart is waiting until NEXT YEAR to remove them. What's with the wait?!

             I feel pretty raped by this issue. I was only trying to do something good. I duely wanted to take away from America's Fat Stat by becoming more health concious and also wanted to help the earth (in my own little consumerism way). This is ridiculous.

Megan Fox was crowned The Sexiest Women Alive by FHM. She seems a bit ditsy and full of herself, but she deserves it. Everytime I see her I run to pluck my eyebrows/ do a few crunches/ consider never leaving my house again.
