On my back.
I was on my back squeezing out another set of sit ups (forty twisted crunches for those of you keeping track) this morning, when I thought, “Damn I spend a lot of time on my back.”
I’m not saying that I’m like my friend Model Girl. She says that everything she’s achieved in life has happened because she’s good on her back. I can’t really comment on that, having never witnessed her abilities in this department. I think we have to take her at her word.
It just seems that between the near bajillion sit ups, crunches, twisting crunches, “core” (the new buzz term for sit ups) work outs and sleeping, I’ve spent a lot of quality time laying on my back.
The ceiling at this gym is a kind of brownish orange color. I used to work out a place where the ceiling was blue. Gold’s Gym, Venice Beach? Duh, burntish gold. World Gym, Venice Beach? Black. The ceiling of the gym at my university? Black. First gym? White. High School? Cinder block.
Scary isn’t it. I actually remember that crap.
I cannot remember the name of the guy who kissed me under the mistletoe in junior high school, my first kiss, but I remember the ceilings of all the gyms I’ve worked out in.
I wonder what that says about me.

If the first guy who kissed you had a brick on his head you’d probably remember him.
Furious - Or if I was doing sit ups at the time. But I didn’t learn the joy of sit ups - and bikinis until a year or so later.
It either means you’re not getting kissed enough OR that you spend too much time at the gym!
What a weird fact about yourself. I tried to come up with something witty to say but I can’t. It is strange though.
La Cubana Gringa - I think it’s probably both - I don’t think I kissed that guy again - and I do spend quite a bit of time at the gym.
Squirrelly - Well, I struggle with witt and we are talking about the ceiling of gyms….
So can you crack walnuts with your belly button?
Well, maybe you should combine the two and find some guy you can get sweaty with and copulate while working out. I am a big fan of killing two birds and all that…
ADW - Kind of public for my taste, but I do think you’re on to something. After all, are all those bridges really just for a nice butt??
Moobzy - How did you guess??? It’s a small talent… I’m thinking of entering the Olympics.
It says you’re HOT
and he was not…
I joined a gym in December of 2005 and have yet to show up.
What does THAT say about ME?
Kevin - You say the nicest things!
Mr. Fabulous - Um, I’m not sure. When I’ve done that it’s because sitting in front of my computer (or in my therapist chair) is more rewarding than working out or that I’m depressed or both. I really love working out.
I think that says that you do too many damn crunches. Which I guess is a good thing. I wish I had the discipline to do that. I just can’t do the things I don’t enjoy. And crunches, not so much. I do like doing them on the big ball though.
