…I still just don’t even know anymore.

This week so far as been freakishly strange. The other day about 3/4 into my Arms and Shoulder's routine I felt queasy and faint....I never get sick….so I thought I'd blame this on stress/lack of sleep/working out like a mad woman after not doing much of anything for the last 2 weeks. I stopped to break and crashed on the couch for the remainder of my workout. I could hear the the workout still going on in the background....so in my head I was at least visualizing me doing the moves yet I laid there comatose! -- seemed it was a 24 hour bug that got the best of me....nothing a few doses of Tylonal couldn't handle though....

Yesterday I was able to do some cardiOOO….intervals (near death)....and today I signed up at the GYM!

I am pleased to report that this Mexican dude told me I workout really hard. Although I coulda broke this little guy in two (little on the petite side)…I’m pretty sure he was in a gang, which technically reconfirmed that I am, in fact, bad to the bone. Which gang?, I don’t know, but he had one pant leg up and some scars that looked like they could pass for old knife wounds that healed without the use of Polysporin. I coulda just told him about Vitamin E….but who am I kidding?…I was scared!–I didn’t even look him in the eye. “Just look down…"thanks" and look down….”

This morning I faced that evil StairMaster, after I got a little courage ( I don’t know…) I don’t like to look that damn StairMaster in the eye either, and there are only 3 of them at this other gym I went to this morning….phasing them out? Dunno. The chains probably rust out and fall apart from all the buckets of sweat that fall of of the people who dare to climb up on those deceiving, innocent and awkward looking dang thangs….they are closely related to the Versa Climber..those deceiving bastards…always making me look bad. VC is probably the StairMaster’s grandaddy. The ellipticals kinda suck….they are like the inbred spawn of the two…..Yea....having illegitimate relationships and having babies that look like the elliptical. Someone call Morey Povich!

So I think I can chalk today up as a kick ass day! I’m just mad cause the StairMaster got the besta me this morning. Probably because I am not used to it is all. I’m just not my usual graceful self when we get together….

But at least I got to workout like a freak today…sweating heavily…gaining respect of gangstas…and I am alright now cause I got to do my usual L/B workout at home in shorts so that no one could see my underwear!
