top 'o the morning to ya...
happy st. patty's day! i'm at work of course, and all the venders i've called today have been grouchy..so i'm taking this quick break for sanity and to tell you a little about my morning at the gym.
i went to the gym this morning at 5:45am for the first time in a while, i did not want to go, so i wasn't in the best mood, but my mood suddenly changed when i arrived at the gym and the old man behind the counter scanning my id had on a green sequence leperacon hat and a big green shamrock pin on his shirt, he must smiling so big, he must have been waiting all year to wear that hat. then i get on the eliptical machine and just observed the many characters working out this morning-i want to tell you about 2.
1. I will call him 'toothpaste armpit man'. he was running on the treadmill right in front of me and i couldn't help but stare at his armpits...he had some white goo in them, you could tell he was a serious runner, he was stick thin and i noticed he had already run 3miles, which would turn to 5 by the time he was done...so i figured the toothpaste looking goo was probably some sort of lubricant for serious runners to wear in their underarm area to prevent chaffing...regardless of what it was, it provided 2 miles of amusement for me and a pointless blog paragraph...
2. I will call him 'angry face sweaty man'. this guy is at the gym every time i am there, he is middle-aged and is in good shape but i can't help but notice he is always drenched, i mean drenched in sweat..it always looks like he was just in a wet t-shirt concert. he also always has a permanent angry/i'm working out really hard face. his face just says, 'oo, look at me, i'm working really hard and it hurts, but i love it.' you know, i can see having this face on when you are lifting some serious weights, but this guy even makes that face when he gets the cleaner and paper towels to clean the bike he was riding..
there are several other characters at the gym, but i'll save them for another day...some include 'tie-dyed shirt women', 'hiking boots/sweat pants guy', and 'fast/bent-over asian walker'....
