i'm flushed.
So. I took the bus to the used sporting goods store to buy the weights. I got there, purchased a 20lb and a 25 lb, put them in my backpack and walked out to catch the bus back to campus. I assumed walking back to the office from the bus stop with 45lbs of weights in my bag would be tiring, but I think I underestimated the distance from the stop (Yale and Central) to my office (Girard and Campus). OMG. I prolly could have caught a shuttle of some type, but that would be LAZY.
Also. But while on the bus, there was a random hippy-sing-along complete with purple beads, rattles and drums. It was rather terrific. After the fourth chorus of "If you're happy and you know it...", we had a game of "What's interesting in YOUR bag?" We went around the bus and each person had to show the group one interesting thing from their bag. Mind you, there was like 6 people on the bus and these two cute hippies just kind of randomly started singing and initiating group games. They didn't know each other before getting on the bus... it was kinda cool. The nice lady next to me pulled out a German novel and we oooooh'd. The hotel housekeeper had a Bible and we aaahhhhhh'd. This cutie dude with black hair and blue eyes had skateboard wheels for his little bro (Aw!). Then it was my turn. The bag I took with me to the store was my running bag. It usually has running related things in it. I emptied most of it out to accommodate the weights, so I didn't think I had anything in there worth mentioning except my ipod. I reached in my bag and pulled out..... LUBE. "What is THAT?"
IT'S FOR RUNNING!! I SWEAR. It's to keep my toes from getting blisters. And it ensures that I don't get unsightly chafe marks on my mercurial thighs.
Ugh. The embarrassment. The cutie dude knew exactly what it was. He winked.
The End.
