Oh, Look! It's You!

Update regarding the renegade email: Shockingly, it went over very well. Maybe I should have sent it a long time ago. In response I was told that it was "sweet," and that he was glad I had sent it. Whew - we just never know how those kind of things might be received.

Today, I went back to the gym. Glutton for punishment, that is me. I used two different stalls in the ladies' room, and was disappointed to find they worked as they were supposed to. Where am I to get my entertainment, I was wondering?

I upped my elliptical machine time and intensity, upped the weights on the machines following that, and also the reps. I was feeling great - I had missed my workouts very much. I turned into a happy, smelly, sweaty mess and returned to the locker room. Due to a shortage of time, I decided not to shower there. Still, I had to change my clothes or I would ruin my car seats. Once I was pretty well stripped down, my hair dripping sweat, my face like a nice, ripe tomato, I heard, "Oh! Look! It's you!" I won't say I was completely naked. I never take off my watch or my "new" ancient Roman gold band. I looked around.

One of my students from a computer class I taught was speaking to me. Oh, man. Can you catch me at a worse time? Maybe when the toilet is spraying my legs?

What could I do. I looked up and smiled. She seemed pleased to see me. I said Hello, waved, and a few pleasantries were exchanged. I sure hoped she wasn't going to ask for some computer help that would require a lengthy explanation from me before I got dressed. Nice lady, bad timing.

Luckily for me, she was with another lady who seemed ready to leave, so they did.

I got dressed and headed for home. Lots to do today!

Oh no!  You should take Molly to the gym with you so she can be your watch dog while you're changing!

Whew on the e-mail.  
Of course you ran into that lady.  That's how it works!  You got one point for the e-mail, that could have made things very uncomfortable for a long time, yet turned out very good, but you lost one when you were caught baring it all!!!  If you had to choose which one to be humiliated by, I am sure you would want it exactly that way!  J
