The Truth is.....



(or Thursday)

The Truth is- I haven't posted truths in a long time. But that ends now! 

The Truth is- I really need a new pillow, bad. BUT, it's impossible to shop for a new pillow. Think about it. When you go to buy a pillow you squish it with your hands, maybe hold it and rest your head on it, but thats not how you sleep on a pillow! They need a pillow testing station. I know. Genius idea. 

The Truth is- The other day I was watching a Documentary (nerd alert) and one of the people giving their opinion on the documentary was Roseanne Cash, Johnny Cash's daughter.  I kept looking at her thinking "she doesn't look anything like Johnny Cash". Then I realized I was thinking of Joaquin Phoenix who played Johnny Cash in Walk the Line. And the truth is, no, Roseanne Cash doesn't look a thing like Joaquin Phoenix, but does look like the real Johnny Cash. 

The Truth is- I thought that the tag line to Slim Jims was "Step into a slim Jim". Only after I said it out loud did Patrick tell me its really "Snap into a slim jim". Sorry, but step sounds better and is much catchier. 

The Truth is- After watching the show Lie to Me on Netflix where the guy can read people's facial expressions to see if they are lying or hiding something I feel like I can do the same. It's a false sense that I have brought on by watching 30 or so episodes. I felt the same way after watching White Collar where the guy is a con-artist. I thought for sure I could "accidently" bump into someone and steal their wallet without them knowing. Not that I WOULD. But imagine the phenomenal cosmic power I would have if I could read expressions and con people. Unstoppable. 

The Truth is- I came up with this great idea to motivate Jimmy & myself to get into better shape. I told him we should run a 1/2 marathon in November/Dec when he comes home for Thanksgiving/Christmas. Seemed like a good idea until a few days ago I did my first day of 1/2 marathon training. It was "run 2 miles". 3 blisters & some throwing up later I'm thinking this is a TERRIBLE idea. Of course I was running on the treadmill while trying to keep Preston from putting cars on it & then reading him books while I ran. That probably didn't help. We'll see how today goes.

You totally read my mind! I was just thinking earlier this week that you haven't posted "The Truth Is" in a long time! So I was very happy to see this.

As for tv shows, when I watched all of "Heroes" on Netflix one week I had dreams every other night about all of my superpowers.
