Okay, this post was hilarious. And for the record, I agree about the meeting people at gyms thing. I am definitely not the type to get all dolled up for my workouts (even though I unfortunately know many people who are). I like to get in, and get out, and hopefully not talk to anyone in between.

(Does that make me antisocial?)

If you can enjoy someone who is gym funky … that’s definitely love. Or maybe some really good “like.”

I think this means that you should join the YMCA with me. It’s also closer to your house. And right near a good wine bar.

Be glad it wasn’t worse–my (guy) friend was telling me tonight about the old man who does NAKED CALISTHENICS in the locker gym at his gym. No towel, no nothing. Ewwww.

First things first – your new hair looks HOT! I’m tempted to get bangs cut in tomorrow when I go to the hair dressers….

As for the locker rooms, perhaps you’ll meet your potential soul mate behind either of the doors. (They might be lost too, you know!)

I wish I could do more than laugh right now. The Lincoln Park line got me.

Oh, I can: my gym interaction last week. Boy in elevator looks cute, but has Toy Story-esque sheriff’s badge-lookin’ tattoo on arm. I do a double-take and ask,
“Are those molecules on your arm?’
Him: “Yes.”
[awkward pause. Which seemed to last forever on the express elevator.]
me: “Cool. What are they?”
him: “Neurotransmitters.”
me: [impressed] “oh.”
him: [quietly] “thanks.” [elevator doors open, he flees]

And for my whole workout I try to think of a non-obvious neurotransmitter that I could’ve talked about, but it didn’t happen. Ah, well.
