Pumped Up

There's a quote attributed to Einstein to the effect that insanity is defined as repeating an action and expecting a different result each time.

With that in mind, I went back to the body pump class today. This time, Kirstin went with me. She said it was to be supportive, but I think she was afraid I'd seduce the instructor (which is nonsense; on the S/M scale I'm entirely S, and obviously, so is Amy).

This time, knowing a bit more about what to expect, I backed off a bit on the weights, and when it was done I was able to walk out instead of crawling on my belly.

The trouble with exercise is that it extends your life - by, apparently, the amount of time you spend exercising. So I'm still having trouble seeing the point. Except that, you know, I actually feel better afterward - if I haven't collapsed.

But what I'm really pumped up about is Tuesday night - when Bruce returns to my town!
