I got to the gym super late because I woke up late (crazy sore from multiple workouts yesterday) and also because I didn't realize how atrociously far the Crunch on E 59th st. is from my house. Once I got there, Brad had already worked himself silly and I told him it was all good and that I'd just go stretch and do a little free weighting in the aerobic room.
While in there, I encountered a man who made a little too many gratuitous noises while stretching? You know the kind- the ones who sound like they're havin' a lil too much satisfaction if you know what I mean. After the moaning increased to a roar, he started vocalizing...but not like for real, kinda the way non-singers like to make fun of us...like "mi mi mi mi mi". S
o I asked him if he was a singer and he was kinda startled that anyone heard all that. But he told me he had a show at 2pm...a show called "Wicked", because I wouldn't have heard of that or something. But he was into the fact that I was an opera singer and what not so he was nice. Then he peaced out. Just when I got used to the quiet in the room, this skinhead looking guy comes in and starts high kicking (I couldn't make this stuff up if I wanted to). Then he turns his headphones all the way up and starts doing a form of Capoeira but seriously hardcore Capoeira. Like he was in battle mode. And every time he needs to catch his breath, he stops and stares at me like *challenging* me to test his skills. Once he started back flipping I had to get outta there.
I shouldn't have gone because I'm super sore. I spent the afternoon wanting cookies and laying on the couch. LOST was awesome although it sucks that next week is a recap. M'eh.
Xoxo!!!!

I'm still jealous that all the crazy/cool things happen to you on your daily ventures. My days consist of Gray cubical walls and that "office" smell. Anyway, that punk rock, Aryan Nation - looking, Capoeira Dude sounds hilarious. I wonder if he really was challenging you. Or maybe he wanted your number... Guys are strange and do strange things, so you never know...
