It’s on like Donkey Kong

1. New Asics shoes
2. Adidas Performance Socks
3. Arm Band for iPod
4. Gym Membership Key Card
5. Old School Sweatband

I joined a gym. Srsly. I consulted experts and researched the internets and found the best running shoe for me. I bought the shoes and four pairs of cool-max socks. I got an arm band for my iPod and I bought four totally retarded sweatbands.

What?

Are you laughing at me? Listen here, Judgey McJudgerson, I wear contacts and I sweat. A lot. Sweat + contacts = OW. I can’t wipe my eyes, either, without effing up my contacts. So screw everyone who laughs at me. I’m gonna be at the gym, pounding the treadmill, ass jiggling for all it’s worth and I’m going to be wearing a punk-ass sweatband.

Oh, and for the record, Maddie likes her some cool-max socks.

    I’m glad you posted a pic of the shoes - I kept glancing over at your flickr photos & thinking the top one was a side-view of a shoe, then having to remind myself that no, it’s a fish.

    I assume you got 4 headbands so that you can braid 3 of them together. And that they are made of terrycloth. My stepmother wore those well into the 90s. She probably still has a couple.

    Dude. I got four because I didn’t want to wash it every night after my workout. Duh.

    And don’t think telling me that C wore them will dissuade me, because it WILL NOT. I’m going to wear the hell out of those sweatbands.

    You are going to be so 1980s with your headbands!!! I want pictures, but only if you also wear a ripped up sweatshirt a’la Flashdance.

    LOL! I’m searching the internet for leg warmers next!

    Gerald already told me that Olivia Newton John called and asked for her head bands back.

    You go.

    Maddie’s killing me, all kicked back in that high chair with her cool coolmaxes.

    I’ve only got the gym membership and frankly, I don’t use it.

    Now, you’ve made me feel bad. And NOW, I want headbands!

    Oh, and Maddie…too cool in those socks!

    HUGS!

    You should just get the LASAH with what you spend on 80s sweatbands. Done and DONE.

    YAY for fitness…STUFF! The stuff is the best part.

  9. Erica, on June 17th, 2008 at 8:53 am Said:

    Lessee… $1.97 each for sweatbands, vs $3500 for LASAH…

    and there’s the COOL FACTOR with the sweatbands, which is PRICELESS.

    If you are going to do the headbands, you should definitely be Rambo instead of Olivia Newton John :-)

    Good for you. I think the headbands are a great idea! I’m SURE they’ll look totally awesome, dude!
