alternate universe

I’ve always thought I was pretty grounded, eyes open, very much a part of the real world. In the last 24 hours there have been a couple of things that make me suspect I’m living in an alternate universe.

If this is reality, I don’t want any part of it:

1. Posh spice has been named the world’s sexiest mama
   Victoria’s Secret executives and designers voted, and they think Posh Spice is the sexiest mum.
2. Nicholas Cage is ready to quit acting
   Eh, acting? Since when? Oh, so that explains what he was doing in Con Air.

Stop the ride. I want to get off. A world that thinks Victoria Beckham is sexy and that Nicholas Cage can act is no place for me.

Running
I’m currently in tense negotiations with a fellow runner on the issue of a run this lunch-time. She feels reluctant to run in dripping wet clothes. I can’t think why.
