Health: Blue balls

Blue September is a campaign in the UK that promotes awareness for cancer of the balls. Or something. I got distracted by naked guys. I've never actually been tested for cancer. I mean, sure, I fondle myself all the time. That counts, right? Let's not even get into my kind of "prostate exam." My mother reads this blog. 

Five of Britain's top rowers from Warwick University agreed to go naked and smear blue paint on each other for the photo shoot. If you're allowed to look at butts at work, this video is for you. Also, there are touching stories about young men discovering they had cancer. I usually think of it as something to worry about when I'm old -- ok, older -- and tell myself there's nothing I can really do about it anyways. Which is basically true. Isn't it? I guess there is some part of me that shuts off instead of being overly concerned with something I have no control over, basically.If it happens I just have to keep going forward starting from there.

The moral of the story, aside from hot guys splattering each other with gooey wet stuff all over, is that you are never too young to get tested. Early detection is the difference between life and death. During my next physical, I plan on getting checked. Will you? 

A very personal & rambly note

I've had this blog for a long time and its gone through many phases. It started out many years ago as a confessional but I was remiss to reveal so many personal things, especially when I was going through a rough time. This blog has literally seen me become better by 30 -- and beyond. My life completely turned around from a perma-wasted party boy to living my dream as an entertainment reporter. My career and personal life are in a completely different place and the thought of looking back has never crossed my mind. Mainly because I still want to continue to improve upon my self and see new goals to reach. I never wanted to get preachy or seem ungrateful for the new, mostly wonderful life I'd made for myself and soon transitioned to writing instead about stuff that interested me, which mainly included hot half-naked guys. Those posts still get the most traffic. I can see my blogger stats and know exactly how many people are reading each entry. Since I just don't see the point of putting effort into something that doesn't get somewhat decent traffic (I get a few thousand a month), I try to get readers with every post. Then I think about my message. About what I'm really trying to say. If all I wanted was traffic, I should just start showing dicks. So this is me, talking to the readers who want a deeper message -- those of you that actually hope to gain something the experience. We're going somewhere. I don't know where the final destination will be, but I promise it will be super fabulous. I vow to be even more better by 40, which is only 5 years away. Yah bitches I'm old. But younger than some. And it doesn't matter. It makes no difference how old you are or what it is that's holding you back from becoming the person that you're supposed to be. You can get there. We're going to get there together. Don't worry, there will still be plenty of hotties along the way.

Eatery: Craving!

Eatery: Cupcakes for breakfast

Supposedly if you are going to eat a bunch of crap, it's better to eat it in the early hours of the day so you can burn it off in the afternoon or evening.

That's  why I'm starting a new diet craze called Cupcakes for Breakfast.

Think about it. A delicious, filling breakfast that starts your day off with a treat! I'm not saying you'll loose weight, I'm suggesting it as part of a healthy diet. Seriously! Like once a week the cupcake diet let's you eat a cupcake for breakfast. Or something. It can't be that bad, I'm sure.

I'm looking for a way to justify this, ok?

Yah, my diet could use some work. I go through phases. But I really believe in cupcakes for breakfast. It's totally going to catch on.

p.s. you can win a dozen of the delicious cupcakes above on Celebuzz

Simple pleasures: Try an old fashioned

Facebook, text messages and magazine covers don't count as reading.

At best, reading The Hunger Games is "light reading," but I'm about half way though book one. It has made me realize that I miss reading books (even comic books like the nekkid hottie pictured - why a naked dude reading a coming book? Because). I always enjoyed reading when I was in school, but as an adult, honestly, I don't read many books. I mainly read online; blogs, news wires, etc.

I've tried to read books. A few that I've picked up failed to keep my attention, others were not to my liking so I never finished them. I walk out of movies too. You've got to get my attention or I'm outtie.

The Hunger Games is interesting enough to keep my interest, even though the writing is extremely simple and very clearly for young adults. Like 12-year-olds. Even so, there are some really interesting elements and now I'm back on books. I want to read more. Better stuff, obviously.

Sometimes a good old fashioned thing -- like reading a book -- makes life just a little better.

Turn off the TV, let the computer hibernate and set the phone under a damn pillow. Relax. Take in a simple joy.

I'VE BEEN HACKED!

HOLY SHIT I GOT HACKED!

Thanks be to Google, they detected suspicious activity on my account -- if you get a spam email from me, sorry! -- and I was able to verify my account and take back control of my online domain.

They had also closed down this blog. I sorta freaked. Freaking out is usually my first reaction. It never really helps, but it gets all the bad stuff out right away. Then I can deal.

The image above was borrowed from this page that lists the most popular hacked passwords so YOU don't get hacked.

One of the most popular passwords? Password. Someone from Yahoo! told me this was because whenever you set up a new account, it says "enter password" and people are just that stupid.

Eatery: Heather Morris doesn't diet

Heather Morris plays my favorite character on Glee. Best quote ever: "Did you know that dolphins are just gay sharks?"

So true.

IRL, she's even more smarter. She tells Fitness mag: "Dieting is just not good for your body or mind. I don’t think you should ever tell yourself you can’t have something you want. You can’t have cookies at every meal, but you can have a cookie. If you deprive yourself, that’s just going to make you binge and eat the whole bag. I believe in listening to your body."

Also true.

This is the shit I live for

Since my own cat won't allow me to elaborately balance objects on top of her, I have to seek out random internet memes to satisfy by pet humiliation cravings.

Feeding them fast food cheeseburgers, however, is just abuse.

The Butler did it

Remember that time Gerard Butler got fat? I still would have done him, probably.

Now he's all fit and shit, and I appreciate that he isn't taking the whole thing too seriously. "I ate my last meal in October and I run about 40 miles a day," he says. "I just used to be a lot bigger. But now I’m surfing. I’m doing a surf movie so I have to slim down."

Lifestyle: I definitely need another tattoo...

Absolutely no idea what inspired this decision.

Getting my first tattoo was a total rush. I can definitely understand how people become addicted to body art. The thing is, for awhile I've wanted to get rid of mine. Now I kind of want to redo it. Again, no idea what may have inspired this decision.

Nothing stays the same forever, and since my tat was so small to begin with, it sort of just looks like a faded blob now (it's supposed to be a little symbol -- I like to tell people it means different things to amuse myself). I don't know anybody that has successfully removed a tattoo, do you?

Tattoo culture used to be its own little subdivision of society, but now Reese fucking Witherspoon has one. It is not the same bad ass branding it once used to be. Still, they're pretty hot.

Fitness: So you wanna be hot like Britney Spears video stud Adrien Galo?

Admittedly, it has taken this long for I Wanna Go by Britney Spears to grow on me. The song has reached a new status as Brit’s biggest hit ever, but the best part of the whole thing is the video with dirty cop Adrien Galo. No news to Britney superfans, he’s also one of her dancers (he was in Hold it Against Me too).

The point is, pretty much, to ogle half naked pictures of this fine ass man. Oh, and fitness. Something about fitness.

Soooo look, I’m not going to sugar coat this. We can’t all look like this. I know I never will. The world is unfair, okay? But we can’t just give up. If anything, a hot bitch like this can inspire us to be our very best, all the while secretly wishing he ages horribly, goes bald and gets a thyroid condition that causes him to balloon into morbid obesity.

Fitness: Pretty sure I need a subscription to Men's Exercise

I know what I want for Christmas! It's close enough to Christmas to start a list, right? I need a subscription to Men's Exercise. Because this.

Lifestyle: Move on, bitch!

Get over it already. We all have a past, which some of us may not be proud of. My troubled past is the inspiration for this blog -- although I don't repeatedly talk about what those issues were (drug addicted slut). It doesn't really matter. I had problems and I got over them. Anybody can -- but first I had to accept that the past is over and done. It does not define who I am today.
