I went to the gym this morning because it's 90F/32C here! I took my iPod so I cold listen to a podcast of Studio 360 or This American Life. Lucky me, no one was in the little "Ladies" room at my gym. NO ONE! I was all by myself, bored, glowing, and walking! I was going to quit the gym, then realized that I'd never walk anywhere in the heat all summer, and that wouldn't be good. I'll think of you, and the Pink Lady, now. Thanks for the imagery.mimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16818266600526286808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6759020785662372535.post-62217220502061096362010-05-30T08:27:43.648-04:002010-05-30T08:27:43.648-04:00I once heard that "Horses sweat.
