Day 35

[susandennis]

30 mins at 2.7 with stretches and exercises.  The stretches and exercises are getting old.  I think I need new ones.  After next week, I'll be at six weeks and I think it will be time to buy a little more Jerome. 

Yakker wasn't there today and neither was Really Old Guy.  Maybe they are MWF boys. 

There is a guy who comes in nearly every single day at my time who looks to be about my age.  He appears to be in pretty good shape and looks for all the world like he could have been and maybe still is a jazz singer in smoky night clubs in the 50s.  He spends a good 30 minutes every morning stretching in various ways - slowly and calmly and methodically - walking back to a little side table in between to get a sip out of his coffee cup.  He always says hi.  He's nice to have around.

Hmmmm nice to have around, huh?

Now see, I'm enjoying your gym experience far more than I enjoyed mine. Is it because you are so forthright and insisted on getting something specific, whereas I was limp and let my trainer run me around too much and cost me too much money? (Or is it because *you* are doing the work?)

We ended up with me getting an EKG, which seems not right.

PS. I have a known history of biting off more than I can chew.

[susandennis]

Yeah, see and I have a known history of waiting until there are no more options. And clearly, my size is an indication that I have a giant capacity for chewing and swallowing!

[vasilatos]

I don't know. It seems like you claim to be a giant, while I remain a shrimp. Hmmm. I think we should jointly persist in our pursuit of stamina. Thanks for your side of it. I'm all over the karma aspect of this...

And... hopefully, you will not be able to ever see any difference in me. I'm only interested in getting stamina not changing size or looks.

Oh I KNEW that. Susan Dennis is perfect just the way she is!
: )
but you will have a healthier glow about you. People just look different when they feel better.

Well, if you keep exercising, you might change size anyway.

Hell, I can feel myself losing weight just living your workouts vicariously through your journal!

So, what you're saying is that the gym is a great place to go pick up guys. Yeah, uh-huh. I see that clearly now. ;-)
