Have a Happy Thanksgiving Triple

I was tempted to say something, but was more interested in continuing my workout. She was gone by the time I finished my set.

I haven't seen the 180's in about 8 years. A 30+ lb drop is great, especially as you get older (as I'm sure you know).

Devlin · 11-25-2005, 07:41 PM

Another great workout. We all have earned one day to enjoy

Triple Threat · 11-26-2005, 07:57 PM

Pylon. The gym was not crowded at all. Just the way I like it.

Devlin. Exactly. If we can't enjoy life once in a while, what's the point?

If she had done that to me, I think I would have caused serious bodily harm.

Opps guess I forgot to mention I'm a Irish woman. As for me and PMS, have that under control....drugs/synthetic hormones are such a wonderful thing

The only person I would cause bodily harm to would be my ex bf, if that sob ever shows his face near me he a dead man

Opps sorry, someone recently mentioned him to me

and it brought back the memeories and the hate that has been simmering.

Pylon · 11-27-2005, 09:49 AM

Ah...that forgiving Irish temprament...

Devlin · 11-27-2005, 09:49 AM

Im usually an

especially after I have has atleast one cup of coffee. All bets may be off if I haven't had coffee in the morning

If only you could ask a friend that lurks in my journal, he could tell you what I'm like if taken out in public before morning coffee

	I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain...
