Random Monday

1. I went to grab my workbook for the Bible study I started last week.  This is how I found it.

2. I belong to a great gym, where you feel part of a family and instructors routinely razz you for not coming to their ridiculously early classes.  I go to my gym as much for the social aspect of hanging out with great people as for the endorphins.  Since I started physical therapy, my new gym is the therapist's office.  I make the most of it, chatting it up with the therapists and other patients.  This morning, I was lying on my stomach at the very edge of one of those large, padded tables next to an equally large man doing pelvic raises as I held on for dear life and completed three sets of 10 glute squeezes.  I decided at that moment that society is overrated.  I retreated to the solitude of my mind, where a person can do her glute squeezes alone and with dignity.

3. I live in a nudists' colony.  My house is chock-full of hormonal males in awe of their muscular development.  When they were younger, the pre-dinner quote was always, "No guns at the table!"  Recently, it is more often, "Go put a shirt on!"  At any given moment, someone here is in front of a mirror, flexing.

4. It's never, ever me.

5. The best quote in a weekend full of great quotes was this: "Move over!  You're in the way of my flexing!"

6. Maybe you had to be there.

7. Or.. on the other end of the Skype call, where my in-laws were treated to nude flexing battles.

8. I hope they're not re-thinking taking a Spring Break trip with us.
