So we're back on the P90X... my body is sore and I want to smack the dude already, but... it works so I'll do it. Rich just said I smell like a fruit roll-up (after exercising for over an hour)... Fruit roll-ups are yummy. We love Rich!

So I found myself in this weird, slightly frustrating conversation at work today with the weird, clingy, slightly creepy girl I work with. Her position was this: She doesn't believe in addiction. Period. She thinks that we are all in control of our lives, choices, actions, and so anyone who has a bad habit, bad behavior, bad situation, such as using drugs, being overweight, being an alcoholic, biting their nails, smoking, is in that position because they're weak.

My position is this: It is very hard for me to understand someone being addicted to something/some action because I am pretty much a control freak. I can't imagine ever doing anything to impair my own judgement so much that I lose that control, nor letting some substance have any control over me, but I am fully aware that not everyone is like me and I respect and understand that.

She said she doesn't believe in depression or using depression as an excuse to overeat, drink, smoke, use drugs, etc. It was about then I told her she was full of shit, but she likes to argue. I ended up walking out on her cause my break was over, but I don't know. There are plenty of things I think people do out of weakness, but I still respect the fact that it is their choice to do whatever it is. When it comes to harming yourself somehow, and I include things like using drugs, drinking in excess, and repeatedly overeating here, I think that it's important to try and heal so you can live in a healthy way. Thoughts?

Anyway, aside from that, I learned again today, that my boss is a selfish, shitty type person and that makes me pretty sad. Furthermore, I'm someone who has always refused to play the 'corporate game' and so being nice to someone I find shitty is something I refuse to do so now it turns into me being civil, but not friendly, because I have to be, and then that turns into her f**king me over like typically happens. On the plus side, I'll likely only be there another six months so, whatever, right?

I got a text from Rich today while I was at work that said "Your son just said douche bag" so I sent back "WTF is going on over there?!" and he blamed Youtube. So, on my lunch break I called, and the story goes like this... They were in the kitchen and Rich was getting him some lunch, and he tells Matty to get a juice bag from the refrigerator if he wants one and Matty says, "Did you say douche bag?" and Rich says, "Did you just say douche bag?" and Matty says, "You said it" and Rich says, "Don't say that, it's not nice" and Matty says, "But you said it."

So, lemme see, I've seen more movies this week, and overall I was pretty entertained/impressed. I saw Seven Pounds with the guys, and then we saw Role Models which was BEYOND HYSTERICAL, and then I saw Eagle Eye with Rich and Pineapple Express which was also really funny. I may try that duct tape and hold a guy hostage with a cactus maneuver someday

Hugs and kisses,
