Yesterday at the gym:

1 hr. on the Stair Master (Intervals 45/50); 1 hr. on the Arc Trainer (Level 10, strength program); and 1 combined hour of weight lifting, core, and stretching.

Had a small run-in with Jill, slightly out of our usual context. Me walking out of bathroom, her walking in. I looked her in the eye and smiled and said hi. She did the same. We had a more genuine eye contact.

Talked a few minutes in the locker room with LaKeesha. Listened to her tell another woman her usual thing, "I get to the gym by 5am because I cannot do for any other man or woman before I do for myself." My favorite line of hers is the "The gym is my morning coffee." It's a little more catchy.

Marilyn. Oy, Marilyn. She talks and talks. I went and hid.
