I tried my first "spinning" class ever yesterday, mostly because I was feeling unmotivated and I knew I wouldn't make it past half an hour on the cardio without someone else cracking the whip periodically. It was pretty okay. It aggravated my knees a little more than I'd have liked when we did the out-of-seat segments, but man, I haven't experienced such profuse sweating in quite a while, so it was definitely a good workout.
The only problem is that now my butt hurts a *lot*, and not even in that muscle-achey sort of way. I don't know what it is about the seat of a stationary bike, but whenever I spend any extended period of time sitting on one, it hurts my butt to the point of it feeling bruised. It's only the stationary bikes, too, because I never had this problem with my mountain bike. Maybe I'm just too bootylicious for stationary bikes, haha. :D
Coby's gone, and I am a bit disappointed. (I totally called it last week when I said he'd get booted in the mid-game, though ;p) He was certainly bringing out the bitchy in last night's ep., but my GOD, it cracked me up. :D Granted, I kind of hate Katie and Anonymous Jenn, and although Tom is an okay guy and an Immunity Monster in the making, I'm not quite as in luuurrve with him as most viewers are. So, maybe Coby was just bitching about the right people to make me laugh and agree, but man, something about the way he does it, with the snarking and the eye-bugging and the sass, was just amusing as hell.
So, yeah, he was being a real shit-stirrer, and he didn't care who knew it, and that was probably not the smartest way to go about it. And he totally sunk his own ship with the whole, "Nobody wants to play with me because I'm gaaaayyy" attitude. I suppose that one probably gets used to being on the defensive if one is a flaming gay hairdresser from effing *Texas*, but there's not much need for him to do that in a social game. But, even with the whining and shit-stirring and the general level of snark, he was entertaining! And I liked that he was positive and very not-bitter in his final words.
I think that my favorite line of the night goes to Ian, though, during the standing-on-the-perch challenge. Somebody mentions chocolate and peanut butter, and Ian immediately quips, "Oooo, I would take my clothes off for some chocolate and peanut butter!" a la Jenna/HeiDDi from Amazon. Eeeeeheheehee!
Weekend is looking marginally less poop, at the moment--I'll probably have to pop in on Sunday to handle any late-breaking nastiness. No word on Saturday, though, so maybe, just maybe, I'll have a day of my own. W00t!
Also, it is Payday Friday! Which means that after work, we are going to go get a motherboard whose sound driver doesn't break Windoze. Huzzah!
Also, my darling Amer is a winner and got into law school! Yaaaayyyyy!
