Danielle, my bestie, told me about one particular "blurb" that I just had to see. One that shows you how to stay in shape while at the pump. So I started paying closer attention to these blurbs. Heck, I'm there every 4 days I may as well see how to obtain an ass that Babe could bounce a quarter off of. I figured if some bimbo in spandex claimed that doing her pump-side calf raises, tummy tucks and the like would firm my ass in 10 tanks or less than who was I to argue.
Several tanks of gas and a few thousand brain cells later I saw the ever so anticipated blurb. It left me with one word.
Specfreakingtacular!
If you happen to run into me at the pump and see me doing squats or deep lunges while holding the hose don't be alarmed, it's all part of my plan to be bathing suit ready in 30 days.
One blurb was so fabulous that I actually got in my car and wrote down notes so I wouldn't forget any of it. I tried to capture it on my phone to share with you but that was an epic fail, the only thing I accomplished was pissing off the lady on the other side of the pump. Apparently, she didn't like me using my phone in a no phone-zone. I do have to confess that pissing her off was fun. I hate when there are 12 open pumps and someone chooses the pump connected to mine. Do these Jackholes not know we now share the fuel flow? This only slows the gas going into my tank which will make me later than I already am. Seriously people, get a freaking clue!
To quote my friend Mimi, anytangent
This blurb is nothing but a white background with a black kitchen chair. In this chair is a seemingly intoxicated woman with what could be a Tweety Bird Band-Aid on her arm. The voice in the background says something like this..."Tired of pulling those painful Band-Aids off? Try this tip. Apply a vodka soaked cloth to the outside of the Band-Aid for one minute, your Band-Aid will come off with ease." The lady pulls of her Band-Aid with a shocked "I cannot believe that didn't hurt" face, finishes her martini {that she was not holding a second ago}, sways back and forth and gives her best B-movie smile.
Are you kidding me?
I have 2 things to say about this.
1. If a Band-Aid hurts a grown woman bad enough that she needs liquid courage to remove it then she has bigger issues than what's beneath her Band-Aid.
2. Vodka is not be wasted. Do a shot, or 5, when your lips and anything below the waist is numb I guarantee you will not feel the Band-Aid.
This is an extra...Don't ever say I'm not a giver!
I wanted to make sure I was spelling Band-Aid correctly, IA has enough grammar and typo ammunition on me as it is and she has a mean streak, so I Google searched it. Look what the top ad was.
Because don't we all want to walk around with raw meat on our boo-boos?!!?

YOU are a straight up MESS but I can't help but love you and your hilarious posts!
My grandfather helped invent those bacon bandages. They've been around for a while. It made him a small fortune. Can you believe that stupid shit that people fall for these days? It's the drugs.
You love a good martini and you get drunk a lot so you could have totally OWNED that commercial had you tried out for it. Maybe next time!
I love the squat and lunge idea at the pump. I could totally do that! Unfortunately, I only fill up once every 2 weeks. Small town/stay at home/no friends in hell kinda does that to a girl.
Thanks for the shout out, Yo~
xoxo
IA is kind of mean to you.
just sayin'.
this whole exercise at the pump is brilliant..
if you pump your own gas...
which as everyone knows,
i do not.
maybe i could exercise the whole time my handsome husband is away filling my tank?
nah.
I do lunges while standing in line at the bank. Buns of steel, baby.
Those bacon bandages are cute.
WOW is all I have to say!
You really have TV's in your extremely expensive gas stations? Sheesh! YA not here in MD no fancy stuff yet.
As for the bacon band aids I'll pass. I'm not a big bacon fan.
You know I've never had vodka. I know I'm really inexperienced with the alcohol. I never had a real drink till I was 25. I've gotten drunk once or twice and the last time I had a drink was probably a year and a half ago.
You want to know the funniest part about this post? I OWN a box of those bacon bandages. My hubby got them from his mom for Christmas in his stocking. Hahahahhhaha. We haven't used them yet because they look icky.
I was watching the Doctors (I'm that wife now, wow!) and they were saying you can burn an extra 700 calories just by moving more doing daily activities. So now I do standing crunches while I brush my teeth, walk around while on the phone, that kind of thing. I can't bring myself to do lunges at the pump, but I do toe raises instead.
Fun fact-if you fill up your car in the morning when it's colder, you get more gas for your $.
Pissing people off is really fun, I love doing it and do it often :)
And people, please don't waste vodka to get a band-aid off, its just wrong.
Speaking of vodka and bacon have you seen the bacon flavored vodka? That just sounds gross.
Omg! I was laughing so hard at this post!! I really hope you were kidding and won't be doing lunges and/or squats next time you fill up!!
What kind of car do you have that requires fill up's every 4 days?!?! It has to be an SUV, right?!
OMG - that is TOO freaking hilarious!!!
Ok -I'm with you....I'm going to be squatting at the pump next time i get gas - or DOING squats...whateva!! LOL! That cracks my stuff up!!!
so awesome. i wish pump hoarder hadn't been on the other side because I would've loved video. and that bacon bandage makes me hungry and that's why I couldn't wear it.
When bacon love goes to far---you get those bandages. In our house I think we will stick to Scooby Doo.
My group of girls is FASCINATED with bacon...they all have bacon band-aids courtesy of Moi!
I am going to start exercising at the pump while I have my car running and I am on my cell phone...just to piss people off :)
YOU CRACK ME UP!

I wanna know what the free toy inside is!
I love that the bacon strip band-aids have a warning that there are small parts and they aren't for kids under 3.
I think it's a good idea to fit in exercise where ever one can! (I can imagine you doing something like that at the pump.)
:)
Holy crap, I thank the LAWD ABOVE I don't pump my own gas.
So...87 bucks at the pump? You didn't fill it didja. I got 20 bucks the other day and the guy farted at my tank and called it good.
Wonder what's the free prize in the bacon band aids?
And the lady across from you is a dork...it's like when we were at the movies the other day and NOBODY else was there...but the idiots that came in after us came and sat RIGHT next to us.
I wanted to move, but hubs thought that would be way too obvious.
No Fair!! I want a TV in my gas pumping station.
What am I saying....I haven't pumped my own gas in 7 years. I'm a kept woman. That's man work!
You have given me an idea to start doing exercises at the grocery store so that people will think I'm looney and stay the hell away from me.
You are so freaking HILARIOUS!! I seriously am sitting here laughing and my daughter is wondering what the heck I'm doing!
I totally think it is appropriate to do lunges at the pump..act like you are picking up trash. Get a smokin butt while others think you are helping out our enviroment!
And Vodka soaked towels to take off band-aids...I think I need to talk to my ER director about those....not that I would wring them out in my Diet Coke or anything....
yup laughing out loud here too, hubby is wondering!!
Wasteing good vodka, drink then rip the sucker off, just like waxing.
We dont have nifty tv's at our gas stations up here
Wasting vodka? Just not right...
