So, I've come to the realization that I'm a hell of a lot less interesting when I'm being healthy. That's a shock, I'm sure. Of course, part of my being a general stick in the mud also comes from feeling tight financially, which puts the kibosh on a lot of socializing.

But, yeah - as nice as seeing the scale put up friendlier numbers is, and disliking what the mirror has to show less and less, and being able to knock a couple minutes off my second mile time over the last month - those of you who know me from my more festive times are probably wondering where all the fun went.

It's apparently somewhere back there with my late 20's. :-p

It's not about being interesting, it's just that most of us don't want to have in-depth discussions about how the p00d (or whatever-the-fuck that thing is called) is going or what Maya did to your muscles this week.

The bulk of people on the cruise - even those who do work out regularly like me - did NOT want to go to the gym, hear about the gym, or even know where it was. Everytime I saw Kim without you, you were off being healthy and the rest of us were having a debauched good time drinking/hot tubbing/creating mayhem. Say 'hello' to the Sarlacc pit. Long live the Sith!

I spent about an hour, total, being a gym rat on the cruise - I find that to be a lot more enjoyable than going shopping (also: free), if that makes me lame, so be it.


Can I interest you in the latest health food sensation, subsisting on twigs, berries, grass, and hand-caught insects? All to be washed down with free-flowing stream water, of course.

Sounds delish. Can I have pie for dessert?

Knoe wai!

I am biting a smart allicky answer, but suffice it to say, I'm wiggling my posterior with the thought of you wanting to swat it. Knowing you can't do it cause it's no where near you.

Could always talk about WoW in your blog.

Eh, I like healthy AND festive people -- I find endless gym talk boring and try not to engage in it myself, but I think that good RESULTS are always a happy thing (I'm glad to see my friends feeling positive about themselves and reaping health benefits.) I just don't care about the PROCESS ;)

(This is my opinion in general, not directed at you in any way.)

Rawr for liking the mirror and reducing your mile time!
