Fighting fat!

Chocs away…


It’s probably the wrong time of year to do so, but I have just decided to stick a Post-It note on my computer which reads ‘ NO CHOCOLATE, NO CRISPS, NO FIZZY DRINKS.’

However, with the amount of Easter-themed chocolate treats being passed around the office this week, plus my lack of willpower when it comes to saying ‘no’, chances are, creating the sticky note and placing it on my Mac were probably a complete waste of time.

But the thing is, I really want to stop eating all that crap. Simply because Easter + chocolate = ill-fitting clothes.

Let’s see if I can do it… starting from tomorrow!

 


Recommended track: ‘Fat Children’ by Jarvis Cocker (lyrics featured below – I ADORE this song!)

Fat Children - a song by Jarvis Cocker, about the decay of the UK and how obese kids not only want your food these days, they want your LIFE!

Last night I had a little altercation
They wobbled menacingly
Beneath the yellow street light it became a situation
Well, they wanted my brand-new phone with all the pictures of the kids and the wife
A struggle ensued and then fat children took my life
Fat children took my life
Fat children took my life
Fat children took my life
Well, some passers-by took me to the station
The police force was elsewhere,
putting bullets in some guy’s head for no particular reason
So I died in the back of the cab
but I’ll be back to haunt them
This thing does not end here
My spirit walks the streets of Tottenham
Singing:
Fat children took my life
Fat children took my life
Fat children took my life
Oh, the parents are the problem
Giving birth to maggots without the sense to become flies
So pander to your pampered little princess
of such enormous size

 

Green Day

Dookie!


I’ve been sifting through my cd collection and have managed to dig out what is arguably Green Day’s finest album, Dookie. I’m listening to it at my desk and I feel 13 again! 

Wow. I love these songs. They’re so ‘teenage angst’ and remind me of the school holidays, when it would be warm and sunny outside but I’d choose to spend all my time in my bedroom, applying black nail varnish and dying my hair purple. The good ol’ days…
