Realizing Reality

OK, it’s probably been a few years since I’ve been to a gym (before the last week), but I’m wondering - is there a new unwritten rule that women can’t wear shorts at the gym?  It is really hot outside and not all that cool inside the gym but everyone there has been wearing either the cropped pants or warm-ups pushed up like cropped pants, except for me because I am wearing my shorts.  If anyone there has an issue with me (easily the biggest woman there) wearing shorts, so sorry for their troubles - I will be wearing shorts to exercise!

I’m so happy with the pair of shorts that I’m wearing to exercise right now - they don’t ride up at all.  It’s a miracle!  They’re just cheap drawstring shorts from Target that come down to a couple of inches above the knee.  I ordered a few more pairs (free shipping right now).  Unfortunately, the 3-5 business days really looks more like 2 weeks according to the UPS tracker.  The funny thing is that I could have driven over and picked them up from where they shipped in less than a couple of hours.  Oh, well.

Last night about 3am, my dog was dreaming in her sleep (she does this a lot) and she let out the low moan/howl that sounded just like my alarm clock.  I turned on the light to see what was going on and she woke up and just looked at me like “what’s wrong with you?  Don’t you know its time to sleep?”  I thought it was funny.
