Mid Week

It was a beautiful day today, the day sparkled, it was perfect, you could feel summer approaching in the air. You could almost taste it on your lips the day was so sweet.

It was a shame to spend it indoors.

I got up early, 6am my normal time, made coffee and signed into work and had everything done before anyone else had started work.

I headed to the gym mid morning. Again, you have to love working from home. I didn't go yesterday, just couldn't get it together. Some days things just get in the way, no matter your intensions, you know what I mean.

There was an Asian guy in a shirt that said 'Korean Army' on the back working with a trainer. In black and white. One presumed it wasn't North Korea, his haircut didn't match that regime. Ha ha. I wondered if they had gyms in North Korea, or would that be too much Western infidel dog's behaviour?

There was a cute young guy all dressed in black with curly hair on the leg extension machine, where he did his reps then he spent ages on his phone, then he did his reps, then he spent ages on his phone. I think he was on the leg extension machine the whole time I was working out.

I can see if you just do weights and no cardio the gym is so much less strenuous. There is a calm sort of rhythm to the weight lifting guys.

There was a very handsome guy in a white t-shirt and pale grey shorts, as clean and as spotless as you like working out quite strenuously who never broke a sweat. You just knew he'd smell of soap.

There was a girl who came in later who worked out intensely on a mat on the floor, like her life depended on it. She had really ugly gym face, like she was in intense pain. It gave me a start every time I looked at her.

I was done before midday.

Work flew by for the afternoon. 

We took the dogs for a walk. The sky was one uninterrupted blue tile overhead. The sun shone down like warm honey. And everything was good in the world.

We ate roast chicken for dinner.

I fell asleep on the couch for the evening.

Just a normal Wednesday.

Ha ha.

And my weekend started.
