My Interaction at the Gym

By Leave a Comment

For the last 6 months, I have been working out at the YMCA. I have been very quiet about this.  The other day, I had someone come up to me and ask me if I am going to be much longer on the bike. Because they did not want to wait for someone who will only come once a month.  This really pissed me off and this happened on the 2nd of July.  I just hit the century mark on July 5th, 2012. That is right; 100 times this year. I have seen this person at the Y 1 or 2 times.  Ironically, I have not seen this person until today July 9th. I asked where have they been the last 7 days.  They stated they were here on Friday morning; liar. And then said they were here on Saturday and Sunday at 545am. They then asked me where have I been.  I let him know since the Y is closed on Sundays and do not open until 8am on Saturdays, I was here on Thursday and Friday at 545am. He looked at me all pissed off and said he is not lying and was at the y in kewanee on Saturday and Sunday. I let him know again the y is closed during the times he said he was here. I still find thus funny as hell. I said ok and walked away.

I would not have brought this up but it really ticks me off since I have put the work in and he has not.
