Gym!
Yes, I would like to mark this as the day I regain control of my physical well-being. I finally joined the neighborhood gym!*
It's small but it's a five minute walk away, stays open 24 hours, has yoga and pilates classes, and the treadmills face Delancey Street.
Best of all, it's only $449/year. And the friendly owner gave me an additional month on the house! What's even better is that my insurance plan will reimburse me $400 annually if I can prove that I've gone to the gym 100 times that year, which works out to about twice a week. That's definitely a great incentive to go!
Now I just have to find time to actually go...
*Of course, we only signed up at the gym after a decadent breakfast of blueberry pancakes, berry scones, and sugar-cured bacon at Clinton Street Baking Company. We didn't have to wait very long because we got there early (like, 15 minutes before opening - one of the advantages of living just a five minute walk away!) but by 9.45am, the wait was already two to three hours long. Wow.
