Went to do my run today and this happened. The horror.
This happens to me OFTEN given the mop of hair I cart around on my head, so luckily I had a backup handy to help get me through. Whew. Crisis averted.
The run was so-so. I only did two miles and it took me about that long to warm up. So once I was done I actually felt like I was ready to do more. But life calls and so I had to skedattle on outta there and head home. Yoga tomorrow AND Friday and I WILL GET IN A FOUR MILE RUN ON SATURDAY. Had to say that real loud to make sure you heard me so that way I HAVE to do it!!
Before heading home though…some more craziness went down at the gym. Well maybe not so much crazy as oddly amusing. I am certain that most everyone who has frequented a gym at some point has run into this “issue” and I am sure probably lots of people have blogged about it. But today, for me, it was like nothing really I had seen before. I walked into the locker room and right as I came in, this girl took off her shirt and just started walking around. Literally half naked.
She took off everything on the top, still had sweatpants on, put a towel around her neck and walked over to the sink area and started drying her hair in the automatic hand dryer. After she was all done in there she walked back over to her locker and just kind of hung out taking stuff out of her locker, putting stuff in her bag…all with no shirt on. Like she hadn’t a care in the world. She and the girls were just fine hanging out all day in that locker room free as a bird. She wasn’t even that old. She was probably in her early 30′s?
I know everyone approaches being naked in the locker room differently, but most people seem to ensure that any nakedness occurs in the shortest amount of time possible and tries to get it over with as quick as they can. This girl was all.about.it.
Headed home and surprise surprise what was waiting for me in the mailbox? My new BIC Bands! #stylin!
Do you have the two/three problem with your hair ties?
How comfortable are you with nakedness in the gym locker room on a scale of 1-10? 10 being the girl I saw today.
I am about a 3 I think. I usually change in a stall unless I have NO other option and then I am a changeasquickaspossible kinda gal.
Which of my new BIC bands should I wear first?!?!?!

I think I told you several times already but your new blog is just so beautiful! Every time I’m here (which I guess isn’t often not on my phone, which is probably why i’m so impressed, the phone ruins website’s beauty!) I’m just amazed! And this ALWAYS happens to me with hair ties and it’s pretty much devastating, I’m in love with that picture caption!
Try walking into the locker room and seeing a 40-something guy buck-naked at the sink, with one foot up on the counter while facing the hand drier so he can blowdry his junk. Yes, I’m serious. And it’s not just a one-time event.
EWWWWWW!!!! That’s WAY worse. Like 1000 times
Love the BIC bands! Wear the one with stars
. I am not comfortable with being naked in front of other people haha. In fact, I never change at the gym if I don’t have to!
I know what you mean….any opportunity NOT to change at the gym is a good one for me!
Oh I HATE it when I can’t gt my hair tight enough. That’s hilarious about the locker rooms!! So true!!!
