the puffer

when i go to the gym, i basically mind my own business. i don't look around too much (might fall off the treadmill if i do that and i don't want anyone looking at me), i don't talk to people i don't know (unless i have to and plus i want to be left alone), and i don't make funny noises (unless it's an accident - oops!).

well there's this guy at the gym who makes all sorts of noises and it's freaking me out. my sister was recently telling a story about a guy in her pilates class who grunts through the class, while sitting right next to her. my guy puffs as he's exhaling when he's lifting...you know that sound that men make when they're trying to be macho but really they're just lifting too much weight? my guy does his lifting, makes his puffing sounds, and then on the last rep he lets out this big weird sound. this guy looks like the boss from office space...you know that skinny boring guy? between sets he prances around and goes and gets a drink from the water fountain (last time i'll be using that, thank you very much). well yesterday i realized that all these sounds he's making while working out are probably similar to the sounds he makes during sex! ewwwww!!! i don't need to be hearing your sex sounds at the gym!

i told jeff this story and how i think people are also too free with their nakedness at the gym (i happened to walk in to the locker room as a naked woman was bending over right in front of me). he told me that the men sit on the locker room benches naked! ew! why would you sit on the bench naked? this is not your home people!!! be a little more careful with your nakedness!
