A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To The Sporting Goods Store
Was excited to start getting the miscellaneous items for my new PE equipment set. Part of that included getting some barbell weights.
Remember Wolfman from the movie “Top Gun”? (lol)
[Wolfman] - They’re at 15000 feet now, dead ahead, ten miles.
[Wolfman] - Air speed is still increasing.
[Wolfman] - Eight hundred knots. Dead ahead, now, 8 miles.
[Wolfman] - Dead ahead, now, 8 miles.
[Wolfman] - Wood, you got them?
[Hollywood] - Not yet, I can’t see them.
[Wolfman] - They must be close, I’m getting a hard-on.
This describes me exactly. As I was going into the store, I could say the same thing as Wolfman did. I had to be careful because I just had gotten done with a workout and was just wanting to get home and decided not to put my sweats back on and was only wearing summer shorts. I know.. I know.. Kinna dumb in the winter time. But hey.. It was 32.. 33 degrees-ish. From where I am at, that’s a heatwave! Lol
As in another post I’ve already made, been told don’t need weights right now. Perhaps that’s true now. Just getting ready for the day when it’s time. Getting slight hard was kind of making it surreal. It didn’t help that the register gal had the nicest breasts under a work tee-shirt and bra that I had seen in quite a long long time. (takes cold shower)
It also got surreal as I was loading each weight into the plastic bags to protect the finish on them for now and not chip or whatever, my mind abruptly thought to itself; “You’re gonna hang how much eventually?” I bought a total of 4 five pound weights and it seemed like I was crazy for even thinking that I was going to be hanging 20 pounds one day down the road. I’ve been registered years ago with the selective service when that was a thing back in the day. But I always heard the rumor mill when guys talked about that first day you get to basic and you have no more than 3 or 4 drill sergeants screaming down your throat of how much of a maggot you are. Lifting 20 pounds of dead weight like that really made me remember that comment.
Anyways, trying to get to 30 posts so I can get my avatar. Just documenting the journey a little.
