I've been away for a while. Alright, It's been over a year. I could make up a thousand reasons, but there is only one: I fell off. I was still working out for a while since my last post, but then I just . . . fell off.
In the meanwhile, I have managed to carefully gain back 5 of the pounds I'd lost. I've been going hard, but not the way I should be, so I'm determined once more to evolve into living a more productive and healthier lifestyle. Feh, you say? It's true. I joined an organic food & veggie co-op. But that's not all.
I joined a boxing gym. Not a fancy-shmancy boxing gym, but a boxing gym with stinky boys & men (and some stinky girls, too), a ring in the middle and no air conditioning. A boxing gym that held Golden Gloves this past Friday night. In other words, a real boxing gym. Don't get it twisted: you will NOT see me headlining Golden Gloves next year. I've gotten used to this face over the last 44 years and I kind of like it the way it is -- you know, lump free. I'm strictly there for the training and workout.
And speaking of workout, Doc -- one of the trainers -- went easy on me this morning and wiped me out. He and I have different definitions of easy. In the scheme of things, I suppose he was going easy on me, but I'm out of shape and it most definitely did not feel easy.
But I had such a good time, I'm going back tomorrow after work. I'm a glutton for punishment, what can I tell you.
