Bob Ross is my hero
My favorite episode. I’ve been quoting this ever since.
Bored at work
Coma
I work at a theater and we have had the same movie (Minions) for about a month now. I can hear it play about two times a day and know how far along the movie is by certain scenes. I was deep in thought today while making the popcorn. As I over heard part of the movie I imagined I was in a coma somewhere and whoever was taking care of me only owns a few movies and insists on playing them in my room to give me something to listen to as I slumber uncontrollably. So I’m not really working. I’m not really standing here making popcorn for eternity. In reality, I’m in a room somewhere passed out and this care taker is just looping these same movies. I’d much rather that be the truth. Because then I’d at least still be sleeping.
Honestly I’m so sick of seeing rich-girl fitness. Don’t show me pretty vegan smoothies in mason jars held by a girl with perfect makeup, a manicure, and a color-coordinated running outfit. Show me diets and workouts that I can manage when I’m working 13 hours days and living on a budget. Show me how to eat healthy when I have 5 minutes for lunch. Show me small things I can do to help my body. Show me workout plans that I can do outside of a gym when I can’t afford a membership. I don’t have time. I don’t have money. Half the time I don’t have the motivation to get up in the morning. But I have a body. I want to be healthy.
