Thanks, JB. It sounds like you're doing all right yourself.

Just wanted to add that I joined a 24-Hour Fitness gym a couple of days ago. I walked in just to see if they had any good deals. When I heard what they were offering, I jumped at the chance. All I had to do was pay first and last month's dues, plus a sign-up fee, which all amounted to about $65. Not bad at all.

Plus, my work provides a $20 monthly fitness reimbursement if you submit paperwork proving that you're signed up at a gym. Given that my monthly fee is $19.99 plus taxes, I'll only end up paying $1 and some change out of pocket each month. cool

Today, after a blistering strength workout, I went over to a friend's house. I've known her since high school; she grew up in my home town. A while back, we found out that there's only a half-hour long drive between us; we decided to meet up again this weekend. We get along great and share many interests. I stuck around for spaghetti & french bread and watched You-Tube videos of Norm MacDonald doing interviews on late-night TV. Sure beat being by myself on a Saturday night.
