Now that my sister has gone to teacher’s college in Australia, I’ve been able to go back home and steal all the CD’s she’s stolen from me. She has a rather large collection, but she tends to pick over many of the movie music soundtracks that I collect.
So, as I was reclaiming Lord of the Rings, Forrest Gump, and others, I spotted ABBA’s Greatest Hits lying at the bottom of the CD case. Since that time, I’ve been playing Dancing Queen and Knowing Me, Knowing You in my car all the way home from work everyday, singing along at the top of my voice.
Ok, so I’m not sick…just truly twisted (and possibly old too).
Numb Butt
Yesterdays work out took me and James back onto the heavy duty bikes at the gym. Because it’s been so busy, lately we’ve been using slightly easier lifecycles. However, the big machines were free last night, and we did the 30 minute plateau and climbing routine.
When it was over, I could not feel my rear end. It had completely fallen asleep.
Do you know what it’s like to do military presses and bicep curls when your rear end is more numb that George W. Bush on a bad day? Unique would be the most appropriate term…
Grocery Shopping
Went down the chip aisle, and spotted the Lays answer to Pringles potato chips-in-a-tube: STAX! In its very own funky, ergonomic plastic container.
I picked it up, turned to my friend James and said, with breathless enthusiasm, “And once you’ve finished eating the chips, you can store your lightsabre in it!” And I did the thrust and parry motion with the tube, in my very best Obi-Wan Kenobi impression.
If only I could describe James’ expression at that moment.
