After a night of tricks, treats, frosty beverages, and game 6 of the World Series, I somehow pulled myself out of the comfy confines of a warm, cozy bed to attend my beloved workout, #Bells&Whistles. I fought the good fight, though – “I was up late last night”; “I dressed up like Fred Flinstone last night and have to face the world now. Can I do it??”; “Man, I didn’t think I had that much to drink…”; “Is it raining?!? If it’s raining, I’m not going. Sh*t, it’s not raining”; “Maybe the garage door opener will be broken and I won’t be able to open the door manually because a snowstorm blew through and dumped three feet of snow with 12 foot drifts, which are up against the garage doors”; “Man, I bet the zombie apocalypse has happened. I can’t go out there with zombies. I’ll get killed and become a zombie”.<\/p>\n
Truth be told, it was @Goofy’s voice in my head saying, “The Guy Next To You” that finally got me going.\u00a0 So in @Zuck fashion, I sped into the parking lot with seconds to spare only to find some other dudes staring blankly at me as if they had lost their dog. But I had my dog, so all seemed well. Ah, but the real problem was…another Q no-show. After mumbling (okay, loudly expressing) all of the four-letter expletives, and combinations thereof, I could muster, we pressed on.<\/p>\n
There was a warmorama led by @SingingCowboy, who by the way is now a #Respect. I don’t remember the exercises because I was talking to @BAM. We ran a lap around the bus loop and then commenced the THANG with some real Tabata consisting of merkins, squats, raggedy annes, overhead presses, curls, alternating outside knee touches, step-ups, dips, dead lifts. And then we did some LBCs. There were other laps around the loop, too. There were prayer requests for in-laws, friends, and those affected by the tragedy in New York yesterday.<\/p>\n
My M’s birthday is today and I got her a vacuum cleaner. Nope, I’m not kidding. And because of this, I learned how @Boomerang got to be named @Boomerang. I was also reminded that attending #coffeeteria is how one can learn such interesting stories.<\/p>\n
@Zuck was getting in touch with his inner Bob Ross and feeling something with the tree landscape this morning.<\/p>\n
I think Halloween should always be on a Friday. This middle of the week crap doesn’t work for me.<\/p>\n
@ToeTag celebrated his two year anniversary with F3WinstonSalem today.<\/p>\n
Now for the no-show Q thing…. laying blame will get us nowhere. At least not in a productive manner, anyway. So moving forward, this will not happen again. We all need to hold each other accountable, and expect to be held accountable.<\/p>\n
Aye<\/p>\n
