Not only was I watching 30 Best and Worst Beach Bodies on E!*, but when the Sarah McLaughlin ASPCA commercial came on, I cried. Like, real tears. Two tissue tears. Pathetic, considering I’m a grown woman with a kid. But . . .
We adopted Mo from the ASPCA in 1999. He’s been up and down this year with the whole kidney thing. Pretty down, lately. So, yeah, the commercial got me.
Gah!
I’m going to have years of this, huh?

*If you were wondering, Owen is away — he doesn’t normally go for those E! specials.

Ummmm… Yeah. I watched the end of the beach body show. I saw Cameron Diaz and had to turn it off. I was crying too because I will never look like that!
And – yes – I have seen that commercial too. Very moving.

“I was crying too because I will never look like that!”
I was about to say the same thing. If Beyonce, Jennifer Biel or some exotic model was on, I’m glad that I missed it. To depressing…
Then again, charity commercials put it all into perspective and suddenly a “beach body” isn’t so important anymore.

Beyonce was right up there — you’re glad you missed it!
