I joined a gym today. Damnit. Now i\'m one of those assholes. I told myself I wouldn\'t do that. Be throwing \"Yeah, I totally have to go and work out tonight\" into conversations to make yourself feel like\... something. I don\'t know. But it\'s lame. And I don\'t want to be one of them. But I wanted to do it for myself, so I am. So I put \$150 on a 2yr membership with Bally\'s Fitness because it\'s the closest to my apartment, and maybe i\'ll go often enough to make it worthwhile.
People who let a gym, or their bodies, or their health define them are stupid, stupid people that I can\'t stand. And I refuse to become one of them. I\'m doing it only because I feel I should because i\'ve gained some weight in the past year and I should take it off. Nothing more than that. I don\'t want to \"bulk up\", \"tone\" or in any way \"feel the burn\".
Just so you know.
