Scarf Toners Anonymous

Sleeveless evening dress + 46 year old = Time to start toning the arms*

Nobody wants to see batwing arms:

So I work out with Margaret Richards, who is a vixen at the tender age of 115 and whips my butt every time I work out with her. And I work out with Leisa*** Hart but I feel a bit goofy waving a scarf around, as part of her DVD encourages. Scarves are pretty. They're good for holding down hair if it is 1950 and you are in a convertible on the Riviera. But for toning arms? I'm not so sure.

Which brings me to today's burning question: Do they still have that dance-with-a-ribbon competition in the Olympics? And, if so, why? How is this a sport? This seems almost as goofy as curling. Am I right here? Anybody?


* Yet another reason why I needs two months prep time.

** Who wants to bet Capitol Hill 20210 has and rocks this outfit, bat aficionado that she is?

*** Yes, she spells her name that way. No, I don't know why. I've never understood the need for goofy spellings. ...

Hi, what's your name?
Bob. It's spelled B-o-w-b-b.
Um, sure.
