Shake, Rattle, & Roll

That would be the song the producers of Dancing with the Stars would choose for me!  Various body parts would be shaking (and not in an appealing way like Catherine), my bones would be rattling and drum out the music, and my "roll" would be hanging over the skimpy costume.  Now how's that for a mental picture this early in the morning?!

Last night my boy Castle was not on after Dancing so I watched "DWTS Confidential" instead.  It was a behind the scenes look at the show.  Of course like every program, they got around to talking about weight...losing weight and more specifically Kirstie Alley.  I mean it, can that girl ever catch a break?  She isn't even on DWTS this season and they are STILL talking about her weight!  Good grief.  She seems to be in a happier place but I think she is just delusional (no wonder she is happy!).  I mean really... she claims to have topped at 228 pounds and when asked about her closet she admits that she had clothes ranging from 4 - 16.  Sixteen?!  Really?  You top off at 228 pounds and really expect the American Woman who keeps constant vigil of weight and clothing size to believe that?  I guess it could happen if one sews in their own label or we pay a designer to "downsize" that dress size.  I guess it could happen.....in Hollywood!  LOL  I prefer to just cut out all labels.  They usually can't help sticking out their tongues from behind my back anyway!  Snip snip...that'll keep them from talking.

Every season I get the urge to do my own DWTS in my living room but never get up enough nerve to practice in front of my family.  I sure don't want to scare the Boy and give him nightmares, but I'm planning to suck in my gut and get to it.  I really want to dance.  I love this certain quote.  I have seen credit given to two authors.  Personally I choose Mark Twain.  The other author begins with "You gotta."  I do not think Mark Twain started his verse with "You gotta" so I'm assuming the author took liberties and changed Twain's saying around.  No matter who wrote it, I love it.

“Sing like no one's listening, love like you've never been hurt, dance like nobody's watching, and live like its heaven on earth.”
