Reporting today from the WhyGodWhy? front. This is to tell you that exercise is for masochistic, crazy-insane people.
I’m working out with Persnickety Hooch now four days a week and she says we need to do weight lifting. So, knowing jack about actual exercise because I haven’t done much more than a line dancing class since high school in California. And–though I love me some Cali–don’t get me started on public education in the home state.
Anyway, the point of this whine is that I want to die. We did lower body weight stuff, and my legs feel like they’re charlie-horsing non-stop and I can’t even get up because shooting pain goes straight from my calves to the pain-center-place in my brain. It would be funny if I didn’t tear up every time I tried to stand. (I wish I was kidding–but I’m not)
And since I know you’re reading this PH, and I’m in too much pain to get up and fetch my phone so I can call and curse you and all you forebearers, I’m gonna put it out there: I QUIT. Being in shape is not worth this kind of agony–fat girls need love, too! I can represent! Why do people do this to themselves? It can’t be because it’s fun. It just can’t. I mean it. Charlie-horses are Not Okay.
Seriously. What rat bastid came up with this shit? I blame the Greeks. That whole Olympics thing is all their fault. Damn you, ancient naked athletic types! Though, it’s cool that you were all hot and oiled up and naked. But still…
So that’s the school house rock message for today: Manic exercise is only for masochists. Which I am not.
Kill.Me.Please. *begs*

Awww. I’m sorry you’re hurting.
But think of how many more bad spankings you can deliver with all those new muscles. LOL
It boggles the mind.

You are SO gonna get it when I see you in Dallas. Just be prepared. Cookie can’t save you from me. And he might even enjoy watching. :P

Uhoh
{you know I was just kidding right? Working out IS the devil invented by naked oily guys-and you shouldnt do it anymore.}
You’re not buying it are you? Okay, no high heels for me in Dallas-running shoes all the way.
LMAO

Oh, sure. Take advantage of my crippled state to brag that you can run. I’m calling Feisty to pin you to the floor. AND YOU KNOW SHE WILL.
And Lori will help. Lori loves me.

Pain does the body good… right?
Comment
LMAO, Crystal, I’m sure some of those oiled up, naked Greeks love us fat girls. ;)

Deanna: No, no it does not.
Jennifer: Well, of course.
Comment
You poor thing! I hate exercise and do it as infrequently as I can…sigh, unfortunately, my butt attests to that fact.
Comment
Thank you, Ericka! See! Someone understands! SEE!
Comment
Lmao! Why are you dragging me into this!? RG, sorry, gotta stick by my girl, Crys. Run, baby run!
Comment
Hell, yeah! That’s the best news I’ve had all day. And, dude, you have dragged me into so much shit over the past year or so…it was my turn to drag you! Get her! You can totally out run her, you were in the Army.

Your pain is exactly why I “walk” to get my exercise. I hate lifting weights and all that other crap.
Comment
exercise is evil. EEEEEEEVVVVVVVIIIIIILLLLL.
Comment
Lyric: Word.
Jen: It so is.
Comment
I love exercise! Sometimes it’s hard getting up. But the pain makes you think…wow I did something to that muscle to make it hurt. It’s growing. You’re doing great, Crystal! Keep it up!
After awhile it doesn’t hurt, that’s when it gets boring. I missing the days of crawling up the stairs when I get home…dang it, where’s your smilies. I wanna put in a smilie!
Comment
Stop whining and suck it up. It’s good for you. And I have to do it, too, so there.
Comment
Oh Crystal, it gets better. Honestly, it does.
I’m with Shelli. I love to exercise. I do hand weights with the hubby and I push him to do it more than he does. Lol. I love the way it hurts, and the way it feels afterward. Also, maybe you could try some yoga. I love yoga. Or just simply going for walks. I love to go for walks. Lol. :D
Give it another try, don’t stop now that you’ve started.
Comment
Actually, all. This isn’t a suck it up kinda pain. I’ve pulled a muscle in one leg and strained one in the other. So, looks like I’m not exercising for a while. Enjoy yourselves, masochists!
Comment
I know I already commiserated by IM, but I’m so with you, girl! I only walk to exercise. The rest hurts. I’ve only gotten that endorphin high like twice in my life when it wasn’t caused by sexual exercise, so bite me if you think exercise feels good!
>>fat girls need love, too! I can represent!
I LMAO (I wish) when I read this!
Seriously, I respect athletic type people. But I am not one of them, and I don’t need the pressure.
