      I dunno, they both sound really reeeeally social. Ok, I've been to bars; it's been a lotta years, and it was kinda social (and is it weird that when I swipe my index finger across my phone's keyboard for the word 'social,' that one of the suggested words is 'su1c1dal,' but spelled correctly with all the letters? I don't use that word for anything. I used the 1 as i to not get flagged.). I'm not looking for social!!
      But even if I get enough money together that I can spend on joining the Y, I have to talk to someone about goals? Like, just wanting to be healthier and coming in 4 days a week isn't enough of a goal? Pucking he||. Just let me use the elliptical for 20 minutes, some 2 lb. weights to start off for 20 minutes (and someone can help so I don't hurt myself if that's a concern), then water aerobics if available, and do that 4 days a week, and leave me alone. Sheeesh.
