The Gym: Two gross things, one awesome thing, and money. This might be boring.

So, my time at the gym started out awesome because there was the cutest news story EVER on the news about how old-folks' homes are using miniature horses as therapy animals. Well, at least that's what I could interpret from the closed captioning and the images of horses nuzzling up to old people in bed -- and not in a The Godfather kind of way

First, drying yourself off with paper towels is weird, no doubt about it. Second, that news story seems freaking adorable. Today, when I turned on the news, everything was about how my governor likes nuzzling up to prostitutes at night. Ugh.

It was so cute!! I think everyone around me on the machines thought I was crazy because I kept going "aww..." Good thing most people wear iPods. I tried to find it (I think it was on the local ABC affiliate), but I couldn't!

Yeah, your governor kinda seems like an ass, no offense.

I never understand why some women at the gym feel okay with just walking around the whole locker room stark naked. When I go to the gym, I stand in one place, facing away from everyone, taking off one piece of clothing at a time and immediately replacing it with another.

What's really awful is all the old lady boobs you see. One of them came right up to me and tried to tell me how to work the dryer. I was all, "Go away! You are naked!"

Some of these women even dry their hair naked. Put on clothes first! Or cover up with a towel! No one wants to see the wind blowing through your pubes.

Thank you for bringing to light this disturbing topic.

Yeah, I'm just not that comfortable with nudity. Glad someone agrees with me on this topic.

As a guy, I feel just the same about nudity in gyms. I guess we'd never make good nudists.

Not surprising since you're English. :)
