Went to the gym, swam a few laps (being very liberal with that terminology).
By the end of the first lap (yes, I made it down to one end and ALL THE WAY back!) I was already pretty sure complete collapse was imminent. And by the way, you know how they say about pictures in magazines "people don't really look like that"? Well, yes they do, and they all walk by the convenient viewing window into the water torture chamber at the American Fork Gold's Gym around 7pm on Wednesdays. I'm sure I looked like the flailing lumpy dumpling exhibit.
After dragging my sorry carcass along the bottom of the pool for a while I lurched out and saw the sauna and the steam room. Those dang Nordic people swear these things are good for you, but maybe it is ill advised to intentionally raise your core body temperature right before driving home in 90 degree weather?
Yes it is possible to drive hanging from the steering wheel, holding your head directly in front of the AC vent, periodically glimpsing over the dashboard.

In all my years I have missed the "flailing lumpy dumpling exhibit" When do you go to Golds again? Haha Swimming is a killer workout. Haley and I took lessons last fall and it certainly is a accomplishment to swim a few laps! Keep it up!
I can empathize (sp?) the other day I decided to get back on the healthy track and decided to knock out some pushups. I think there was a gravitational flux that affected the iron in my blood when I was tipped over at a weird angle because after 5-6 pushemups it felt like all of the blood was going to explode out of the top of my head. Those pushups can be SKARY!
I don't really understand the point of those windows. I think the same person who did that put the mirrors up EVERYwhere. (Okay, just for future reference, please don't title a post "Stroke!" when your pregnant wife if currently having neurological problems. K? I was a little freaked out when I saw the title.)
Crazy in CO?????
well yeah, you don't think that fits?
