It’s my birthday!!!!!! Another year older and a little bit wiser!
Haven’t posted for AGES… been really busy trying to get my butt into shape down at the gym and just general day to day life! My brother is out on holiday just now with his mate Simon so have been faffing about with them too doing the Tour Guide Barbie bit!
I got badgered into joining the gym by my friends as I kept talking about it but never actually doing it so I went along one day to try it out. I got a call the next day from the manager of the gym asking how I got on and there were special offers on memberships blah blah blah. He sounded dead sexy on the phone so when I saw my mate Lu, I was harping on about how sexy his voice was and we decided that normally when this happens that the person does not fit the voice if you know what I mean!!
Anyhow, I arranged to go & see him the following week to sign up so on the Sunday, Me & Lu pitches up at the gym and I ask to see the manager but was informed that he was running late and told to go and do my workout & he’ll be in by the time I was finished! Great, I thought, I’m gonna be all sweaty & manky but hey never mind coz he’ll probably be 5ft 2, fat, bald and generally NOT HOT!
So… off I trot to the machines and spend an hour working bl**dy hard! I left Lu still working out and headed off to the reception to ask for the manager. I was asked to sit in the seating area that faces all the treadmills etc so went & sat down, red faced, sweaty & looking pretty crap! Well…. this stunning bloke comes walking towards me and I’m thinking “God, please don’t let this the manager” …. You guessed it…. it WAS!!!
He then sits opposite me with his back to all the workout machines & starts going through his sales schpeel while I was trying to smooth my hair & wipe up any excess sweat that might have been forming on my brow. The next thing, I see Lu out of the corner of my eye walking towards us (behind the manager who could not see her but I could) and she clocks the manager, her jaw drops, she then winks at me and gives me a massive thumbs up behind the managers back! Well … honestly, it was all I could do to stop myself from laughing and blushing! Needless to say, I signed up at the gym if only to have a sneaky peek at him every week!!!
Oh … and I nicked his pen so I have a permanent reminder of him
