Summary

If you’re like most people, when you think of Summer you think of the 1986 John Cusack movie, “One Crazy Summer” and the eternal questions, “Who invented liquid soap and why?”. Or maybe you think of beaches and backyard barbeques and vacations. But if you’re like Catherine and Donald, you think about loopholes. The lies we tell ourselves to get out of sticking to our health and fitness habits. This week, the couple go over the first five of Gretchen Rubin’s categories of logic loopholes and ask you to identify the ones that you invoke. This summer, are you planning to take a vacation from your healthy habits or with your healthy habits? Plus, Catherine is one of the cool kids, Donald sings the Annie soundtrack, and the rock is lucky because you find it.
