I had forgotten....

I had forgotten....


But last night was a reminder.

I've been going to the gym daily since I started back up again.

It's safe to say, it is now part of my nightly routine. I was only part way through with cooking dinner when I looked at the time, and it was gym time.

"I don't know what to do. I want to go, but everything isn't done yet."

Oddly, my anxiety causes me to fret about TIME in general. I have routines based on things I do at certain times.

"Just go, we can eat when you get back."

Middle was at my place last night. I love him so much... He is my cool as a cucumber who can just roll with anything.

"Are you sure, I'll be gone for an hour?"

"Yep."

Changed into my gym stuff and off I went with my youngest spawn.

I knew the moment I got to the gym he was there.

You know who....

Obscene Groan Gym Guy.

Every gym has this guy.... He's the guy who is always at the weight machines, lifting as much as he can possible lift, spewing obscene grunts and groans into the world as if he had just reached the most intense orgasm to ever have been had.

My spawn was on facetime with her little bestie.

"Ew, what was that?"

I heard her little voice coming from the phone. I burst out laughing, trying to conceal it as much as possible

"We're at the gym. Some weirdo sounds like he's dying."

The Spawn was responding back, talking a little louder than I would have liked.

"Sssshhhhh....."

I hushed her. I honestly don't think anything could have been heard over Obscene Groan Gym Guy though.

I headed over to the treadmill and took my place while The Spawn sat on the floor in front of me sharing our experience with the bestie. We had been there for about 10 minutes when Obscene Groan Gym Guy ripped out a fart during a lift.

"I heard that."

The bestie's little voice shot out from the phone. I just shook my head and laughed.

I had forgotten why I don't take my with me to the gym.... I was soon reminded.

    Yes, it is good for me. I've been sleeping SO much better. I actually got an 80 on my fitbit last night, indicating I had 'good' sleep. Most of the time it's fair or poor. I consider this a win.

    And, LOVE the Doobie Brothers.... Saw them in concert 3 summers ago.

    Baby, there's a chance you ought to take
    Chance of a mistake you gotta make
    Maybe I'm mistaken too
    To take my chance with you

    Shadows disappear at night
    We both know it's a shame if you should lose one
    Why is it so hard to find
    Tell me that you're right there too
    One step baby
    Two steps maybe
    One step closer
    I'll be next to you

    everyone who goes to a gym knows THAT guy...
    And there's no way around him... Unless...You were to walk to the supervisor person.. and say...
    "Hey... Should he be slamming those weights on the floor... and farting?" 🤔
    They might warn him for dropping weights.
    Those supervisor people might help.
    That's the way I would clear HIS fucked up head.
    He's a poser. No need for you (and everyone else), to live his bullshit.
    I wish I could be with you. I'd straighten his bs out. 😎
It's a 24-7 gym, but there isn't always someone there. The managers are there until 6, but I don't normally get there until after 7. Thankfully I have only seen him there twice, although there was a new one tonight. I thought he was going to have a stroke on the weight bench.

    Maybe your spawn and her friend were talking loud enough for Obscene Groan Gym Guy to hear....and take note of how rude he was. One can only hope that if he did, he could learn a lesson from the conversation. lol
I went by myself today, there was a DIFFERENT guy doing the same thing, and SINGING at the same time. Good lord....

I would love it if there were more spawns.... I like bringing mine with me when I go places. I have yet to see any kids there.
