Twitter's down, so I'm blogging like it's 2003. Anyway: gym is finally awesome. Pushed past the constant soreness stage into the feel-incredible stage. Wooooo!

Went to the gym. Worked out. Did not die. I'll take it.

Worked myself sick launching a project at work, then decided to hit the gym anyway, dosed up on cold medication. Predictably collapsed on the floor in the middle of a training session, terrified my trainer, and wasted the time of several NHS paramedics. Lesson very much learned.

Went to Meta 9 (good but sweaty) and tried Body Jam, a dance aerobics class full of women and three gay men including me. Nearly killed myself, can barely move, kept going the wrong direction, and I'm absolutely going back next week.

I'm a gay man who finds locker room nudity baffling and unpleasant. Straight guys shrug it off as "just guys," but that logic doesn't work for me. Why is public nudity suddenly acceptable the moment you enter a changing room? Scrotums are not attractive. Put them away.
