from the puritanical expectations of organized education, and i don't want to go to work.

5 i'm going to be late anyway.

6 how will i ever chisel my body into a sparkling statue of Greek Goddess perfection
if i can't find time for 5 Minute Abs?

8 if i call my husband right now, i bet he'll come home to get some.

9 the phone is ringing.
