Lauren’s Beans

So I joined the exercise place “Curves” after Jacob was born to try and get back in shape.  Matt says it’s weird and feels like Alabama.  It is populated primarily with women over the age of 50 so I’ll agree to the weird part though they don’t really act like they are from Alabama. I have fun listening to peoples conversations there.

Today: January 23rd at approximately 8.30

Topic of Conversation: the Inauguration (yay Obama)

So this lady (who is doing ever less vigorous calisthenics while she talks) went to Washington this week to see the inauguration.  She loved it. It was crowded. Then it gets more interesting…. apparently her stratagem to keep her place in the crowd and not lose it… wear Depends! That way you don’t have to go to the bathroom at any point in the 5 hour wait to watch the speeches.  Never underestimate the tenacity of older women.

Jacob keeps pulling a blue elephant off his mobile and upsetting himself while doing it….I think he is surprised by his own ability (however inept) to influence the world.  He is slowly becoming more than an inert log! It’s amazing what one can do once you learn to move your hands.
