Up at 0630 and cleaning and tidying my room. It felt great at the time but it's made my long busy friday even longer. I need something to do with my mornings- I've scheduled every second day for getting my video projects up and running, and I'm thinking that in the inbetween days I might gotothegym.

What? I said I think I might gotothegym.

Fine. I'm thinking of joining a gym. Or maybe just paying per visit. I dunno, how does the gym thing work? Guess I'll find out. Actually, I suspect I'll go into one, ask stupid questions, get embarassed and frustrated, and end up fleeing. I guess that means I should go enquire at a gym I have no intention of joining, leave the one across the road for last.

Echoing someone else, be clear on what your objectives are. If you want to get fitter/healthier and cosmetics aren't such a priority then there are lots of alternatives to the gym: dancing, skating, martial arts, yoga, cycling...

If you choose an activity that's social and fun, you're much more likely to stick at it. Personally I find traditional gyms really tedious and prefer activities that offer some other benefits besides just exercise.

Fitness? ick. I just feel I need the rest of my body to match my new belly.

(Boof's saying "FAT!!")

Chest, shoulders, arms and legs. Lovely.
