Cardio Tease

I officially gave up the Cheetos on Monday and made a same-day appointment with myself at the gym. Figured I’d download a few TV shows to my iPhone to make the elliptical workout tolerable. And since I’ve seen just about every TV show ever made (BBC included) finding something new wasn’t easy. But HBO’s The Wire is one show that has alluded me over the years so I hit the purchase button. Fast forward to me at the gym. I’m on a cardio machine and there’s a man to my right pedaling away at an insanely high resistance level. Whatever, I’m not feeling inadequate, I have my TV show. Wait…what? Oh nice, a strip club scene. Naked women all over my iPhone. I’m about to press the stop button but then realize it’s somewhat motivating. Not that I want to work a stripper pole someday but these woman obviously work hard for that body, right? And since I catch the guy next to me checking out my screen, I guess he agrees too.
