My dad was in the Air Force. He never let anyone who worked for him celebrate a holiday alone in the barracks. Our house was often filled with young GI's. I have fond memories of many parties with them all. I remember one Christmas when I got a microscope (I was a nerd) and one guy nicked himself so we could look at blood.....
Today I was at the gym lifting weights and not only did I see the president, but we spoke. He said "How are you?" One time as he passed by me. Then he walked up to the leg machines I was on, I asked him did he need the one I was on, and he said he was doing it next. So I was exercising next to him for a bit. Then when I finished my last exercise (Decline Bench Press) he was walking around the corner right as I turned to walk out, and he said "See ya." It is a very big gym and I was not stalking him. I'm glad I got to see him, as I missed him Monday. And according to the news he is cutting his Hawaii trip short to try and keep our country from falling off that Fiscal Cliff on Capitol Hill!
I do my weights according to the order the machines are placed in the gym. Not very scientific. The president appears to do his workout from a sheet of paper he keeps in his pocket, and he ends up going all over the gym to different machines and areas. He appears to take his workout very seriously. He also appeared to be in great shape.
I just copied my above two paragraphs to post on FB. In case I confuse those of you who are also my alt universe friends!
Our Christmas Vegan Feast was nice. I think if I went totally vegetarian I could do it. Vegan, might be too hard!
