Irony

Today I officially joined the local gym.  It replaced a DVD rental store about 2 months ago, which I thought was kind of funny.  This reveals the twisted nature of my sense of humour.  Anyway, the new gym is literally right next door to McDonald's!! Again, I find this amusing.  The real clincher was what happened during my work out today.  

I was walking my heart out on the treadmill at the gym this afternoon.  Bear in mind that I probably looked like this..

On the television in front of my treadmill was a cooking show.  So all I could see was this...

This, my friends, is an example of irony! 

Over the past two days I have spent a lot of time with 3 of my nephews and 1 of my nieces.  There was a lot of laughing and tickling and chuckling and giggling and unfortunately there were a few tears as well.  But, I suppose that is just the way things are sometimes.  But I hope that explains my holiday absence.  I changed my plans for the family which is more important than anything else.  

Right.  Time to go.
