Gym thoughts...

So I just signed up for a gym today. Amazingly. It's the gym dad belongs to, they have therapy services or just open independent come-whenever-if-you-pay-the-monthly-fee gym. Dad started under their heart therapy program after his heart attack (the second one) and now he is independent. But he hasn't gone as much as he should, so I joined to motivate him (and he's paying, which motivates me). All you need for this gym is a note from your doctor saying it would be a good idea to work out/get therapy/etc. So I got one (I should lose weight) and there I was. Today we had the hour long show-me-how-everything-works time, and boy, am I tired. I did everything - to get the baseline, I suppose, as well. The bike. The Upper body Cycle (like a bike for your arms). Lunges (those evil things from gym class). Pushups (the girl kind, but I was amazed I could do em). Leg Press and Arm Press. Squats. Bicep Curls.

How long has it been since I excercised - like really? High school? College?
I'm weighing myself and possibly measuring myself tonight - just to see what twice a week excercise is gonna do for me. Woo! Wish me luck.

EDIT: I feel so good, I ate a donut. Hee. :)

Too funny.

My father, he just can't win.

My parents had their 30th anniversary in June, and are celebrating with an Alaskan cruise in July. They are going with two of their college friends. So dad decides it would be cool to get t-shirts made with Anniversary Cruise and the date of the cruise on it. Dad ordered them last week and they arrived today...much to the amusement of our office staff...

Playing the devils advocate (again.)

Before you read this, realize that I am actually "for" this guy. But this article made me laugh...

John Edwards channeling an unborn baby?

Oh, how I laugh when I read the republican slanted online "news" stories... :) I ought to do this more often! Good to know the enemy. :)

and again...

Another arguement from the right wing - the GOP themselves!


We are now going to read to you about the "pain" your baby will experience during an abortion...


Whether you're for or against abortion - aren't you killing the unborn baby? Are you worried at this point that it will experience pain during death? I dunno, maybe you are...
