Hello, I’m Anna and I have a confession to make.  Do you know me?  I’m the person that they apparently create infomercials for.  You see, I’m up around the same time every morning (7:30 AM), even on the weekends.  The problem with that is that Saturday and Sunday mornings are ripe with nuggets of “paid programming” delights.  Anything and everything from why you should own an Oreck Bagged vacuum, to why you NEED a Shark VX3 (which I’ll complain about soon, give me time), or why you might want to consider switching from Bare Minerals to “Sheer”-whatever (which I am NOT switching).  Well, I’m hooked.  It’s a problem, so a lot of times I clear things with the Jim before I go online and decide to try the latest thing.  This past week, we succumbed to the wonders of SHAMWOW!  I mean, I dare you not to watch it and want it…after all, they’re made in “Germany” and you gotta have that!  They still haven’t arrived yet, but we’re darn well excited nonetheless.  I also purchased the only workout set endorsed by Mary Murphy, Len Goodman, Tony Dovalani and other ballroom giants: CORE RHYTHMS.  The Jim is pretty much sure I could open up my own fitness boutique if I would just do the darn workouts.  Needless to say, I have got to find a good cure for the informercial influenza that I get each Saturday…or we’ll be indigent before too long.
