May. 11th, 2009 08:08 pmit's so silly that i swell with pride and accomplishment just from running some errands after work. all winter i hibernated, vegging out in front of the couch from the moment i got home from work... now that it's spring and i have more energy, i'm awake enough to get some things done... and i act like i've done something big.
this evening after work, i drove all over the area returning things i'd bought for the bathroom renovation that i didn't use. then i took some of the money from those returns and raided DSW for a snazzy new pair of sneakers. why? because i'm going to join the gym near my house. i rarely went to the gym at my company when i was a member, because it was in a building that was a pain in the arse to get to and had really limited hours... this one is open long hours, so i don't have to rush there after work to get in a quick run on the treadmill before they close. plus, they don't hold aerobics classes in the afternoons on weekends, so i'd have a whole mirrored studio to use if i wanted to bring a hoop and practice new moves. i'm thinking it'll be especially good on the weekends -- jack usually sleeps in, and i'm up super early, so i spend a good 2 hours drinking coffee and surfing the 'net while i wait for him to get up... i think putting on my sneakers and hitting the gym would be a much better use of my time.
one question more the LJ-ers who are more active than me: is there really a huge difference between cross-trainer and running sneakers? in other words, i bought a pair of running sneaks because i thought they looked the coolest... but if i wear them during an aerobics class, am i going to get completely misaligned or something wacky like that?
