she's got some stew in her fridge i've got my eye on

so i was supposed to meet hiddenshallows at the gym after work for a relaxing jacuzzi (she spent the day in a van delivering heavy boxes of organic vegetables as part of the training programme at her job). i went to the gym first, did my cardio and then got in the pool for a quick swim. when i was about half-way up my first length, there was an energetic shout from a lycra-clad instructor at the side of the pool - "anyone for aqua aerobics?!!"

i had actually done one of these classes before, and remembered the hilarity that had ensued, so i thought 'why not?' and waded over. it didn't disappoint. thankfully a few more women arrived and i wasn't the only person running in a slow motion warm-up lap around the pool! there were lunges and bunny hops and frog jumps and side-stepping whilst waving foam noodles around in the air... it was brilliant.

about ten minutes before the end of the class as we were all happily lunging around the pool flapping our noodles hiddenshallows came in, stared at us a second, shook her head and got in the jacuzzi until all the madness was over. i'm dragging her along on Saturday!
