So months and months ago I saw Oprah do a segment on this, A Complaint Free World. And I thought, what a nice idea. I need to be more conscious of my complaining in life too so I sent away for the bracelet. I even ordered a few extra for friends. I don't remember exactly when that show aired but I ordered online that very day. I am guessing at least 4 months ago. Maybe longer. Well the purple bands arrived this week. I have never been into those rubber band bracelets but I thought that for a month or two to learn to complain less, it would be a great idea. I however didn't factor in that when I ordered the adult size bracelets that they would drive me absolutely insane falling off every 3 minutes. I have very tiny wrists (you don't know how I wish that word was waist instead!!) and I should have ordered a kid's size I guess. But since they sent me this product for free, I hate to waste it. So I have three adult size bands. If you want them, just let me know and I will send them to you. I need to make something else because I do want to try this little experiment. But it defeats the point of the experiment when the bands falling off cause me to complain ten times more often than I would on any given day.

Didn't see that episode, as I never catch Oprah... but it sounds like a great concept. Perpetual complainers bug the crap out of me! See - I'm complaining about complainers! ahhahahahha!
I saw that episode and was temped to try it but I don't think I would last very long. Besides I'm Irish/Italian and complaining is practically a sport :)
