Like 300 million other people, this year in January I joined a gym. Definitely spending money that I don't have rather than buying groceries. I know. Counter intuitive to how very very poor I am. But, it goes with my resolution to be more positive, and nothing makes me happier than running until I feel like I am going to throw up (on average about 5 minutes on a medium/low speed).
I'm nothing if not honest with you all, so I will tell you that I joined Goodlife. In order to sell me their package, I went on a long tour of the women's only facility. The one closest to my house is women's only, and let's be honest ladies, these types of gyms seem to be more about socializing than actually working out. On my tour the Goodlife rep said to me, "Now don't worry about attending these weight lifting classes, they will not make you bulk up and have too much muscle." Uhmmm okay... Thanks Goodlife. I am definitely coming to the gym to make sure I never gain muscle. Do you have programs that help me maintain my flabby stomach too? O, actually, at the class I was in yesterday they told us if you went to the gym this weekend there was going to be free cake....
Goodlife also loves to pressure me into getting skin cancer through their over enuthusiastic sales of indoor tanning. They are forever offering me my first tan free, or trying to get me to tour their claustrophobic little death chambers. Holy moly, no thank you Goodlife! Although here's a good business plan - why not offer botox as well? Because if people really tan that often soon they will be wanting to get rid of their wrinkles!
Ooops, a rant on Goodlife business practices was not the point of this blog. Have you missed my rambling? My point is that I have cleverly taken to showering at the gym to avoid having to pay for showers at home. The logic is that I'm already paying for the gym, so why not take advantage? I now take all my showers in the comfort of a disgusting public stall where my dirty water mixes with all the other ladies and where my towel has the option of hanging in the shower and getting wet with me, or hanging on the hooks in the public area where I have to run out naked to get it. I alternate between with two, if you were wondering.
In conclusion, I like to bring you to the new lows of my life. I'm trying my best here people! As always, I am open to your money saving suggestions.
Oops I was looking for a picture to show you have horrific my Goodlife showers are, but instead this cutie little beast popped up and made me smile. Yay for baby hippos!
