Ow.
I got a new trainer in the gym after having Jenny, my old trainer, for over a year. My new trainer's name is Chris. And no, that's not actually his name. But that's what I'm going to call him. I don't like using real names unless I have their consent, and really, I don't know how I'd ever ask that awkward question.
Chris is generally awesome. He's talkative (he likes football. He played football. And he really likes it! Like, really.) and cute, around my age, and he does listen, which is unusual in trainers. Especially guy trainers. His haircut is cool because half of it is almost shaved with swirly designs carved in it, which I've never seen on a Caucasian guy before.
However, Chris decided if I can walk the next day after seeing him, he's not doing his job. I worked lower body with him on Tuesday, and now, on Thrusday night, I still can't bend my knees. I can barley walk, it hurts so much. He had me doing walking lunges (and anybody who's never had the pleasure of walking lunges can go do some. A lot of them. It. Hurts.) sideways with a 25lb weight. Then I had to do deep squats with one leg behind me (don't ask). And after that, we did a bunch of machines. Only ten reps, which was nice, but I had to do about five sets (with each one getting heavier) which was not nice.
And then he had me do abs. Not the normal ab work I've done, either, but some crazy half-upside down me-supporting-my-weight-while-twisting-and-flailing type of ab work.
I wish I was small enough my mom could have carried me out of the gym, but if I was that small, I wouldn't be going to the gym now, would I?
I did upper body today. Let's hope I can type tomorrow; if I don't write, I will go slowly insane. The words are in me! They need to come out! I'll ooze them otherwise, and that isn't pleasant. Or safe. Ew.
And while I'm jotting down stuff half-asleep and delirious, I hope the vet can help my guinea pig, Cookie. I'm bringing her in tomorrow because she's got a nasty fungal infection and is basically a walking, itching, unhappy scab. I really hope she'll be okay.
