I was at my gym the other day nearing the end of my workout when I spotted an old friend on the lat-pull-down machine next to the treadmills. I pulled out my head phones and walked over.
"Hey! I didn't know you came here?" I said throwing the back of my hand into his shoulder.
My friend wheeled around and we exchanged pleasantries and small talk for a bit.
"How long have you been working-out here? I've yet to see anyone I know in here." I asked looking around.
"Yeah" he said trying to catch his breath putting his hands on his hips. "I used to come in here pretty regularly, but I've been working out after work near my job so I've been going to a different place for a while now."
"You're not really missing much in here." I said smiling looking around. "The upside is you don't really have to wait to get on any machine or use equipment."
"I know!" he nearly shouted while laughing. "There's absolutely never any attractive women to look at in here! I thik it helps with the work-out."
"Doesn't it just suck going to a gym that has nothing but ugly chicks!?" I yell laughing and rolling my eyes to catch an chubby girl with frizzy curly brown hair and square black glasses on the exercise bike only a few feet away. She's clearly intently listening in on our conversation and now I'm getting a death stare.
My friend, much more polite than me notices the same girl scowling at both of us and he frantically makes an effort to change the conversation but ends up just stuttering in a befuddled fashion for about five seconds.
"Well it's true!? And you're not helping the situation." I exclaim turning my head completely towards the girl and giving her an equally dirty look.
My friend's face turns bright red and I start laughing hysterically.
"Straight from the hip." I say motioning one of my hands like an old western gun slinger.
"Sometimes I really admire you Taylor." He says with a big smile.
I tell him we should grab a drink in the near future and we part ways while the girl puts in her head phones visibly pissed off.
