The Gym

I have been trying to go to the gym earlier lately- trying to miss the after work crowd. To my delight there have also been less incidences of all the things that irk me, i.e. people smoking right outside the main door so smoke gets inside, people smoking, in general, before working out, or just as they get outside afterwards, less dumbbells and other such free weights scattered all over the floor, less mullets, and less "really cool and strong dudes" wearing tank tops, and less people workign out in khakis, khaki shorts, or polo shirts.

While this is overall a relief, I realize it is probably just because there are less people there in the afternoon, and therefore less of a percentage of people are available to fall into one of the above categories. I mean, who works out in a shirt with a collar on it. Alas, there is still a high percentage of softies wearing these working out gloves throughout their entire workout, including cardio.

If you are reading this, and you are, you might be asking yourself: How serious could this kid be working out if he is taking the time to notice so many things. The answer is very seriously, and very hard. I just happen to pay attention to details, and once I see something, especially if it peeves me and I therefore notice it, it goes onto the mental checklist, and I don't even need to break my stride, so to speak.
