Weekend Doth Approacheth

Let's review my Thursday goal and actual results.
30 minutes on some form of machine - check
So I was waiting for a treadmill to open up and spotted one near an open window. This has two things I like - 1) No mirror looking back at you huffing and sweating 2) Fresh air to keep the funk down to a minimum. There were these girls working out side by side on the very treadmill I was eyeing. Fine, I'll just ride the stationary bike until they quit. Can't take too long. Well, 30 minutes later these chicas were nowhere near done - even with the evil thoughts and bad mojo I was casting their way.
I eventually found another treadmill near another open window. Those girls can still be there for all I know.

So, bike 30 minutes. Now to the goal of 1 mile on the treadmill. I did it! In a blazing time of 16 minutes. This is a 3 minute improvement on Tuesday's time. Next goal 1.5 miles in 20 minutes. Dare I dream!

Weights and abs-check. My gym routine was complete.

Tattoos

New subject. I have some tattoos. I like them. I get the whole personal art vibe of tattoos. What I don't get are neck tattoos (prisoner), face tattoos (crazy prisoner), butt outline tattoos (horny crazy prisoner?).

Neck tattoos - usually look like a stain. Most likey it's someone's name written in some lame cursive writing. Maybe their child or baby mama or baby daddy. Maybe "Viva la raza' or something like that. Nothing says pride in your race like a cursive tat on the neck.

Face tat - just ick. People will avoid you, mothers will shield their children when you approach, people will cross the street to avoid you (see the life of Mike Tyson for more details)

Butt tats - These are some arty outline of the lower back or upper butt. Who is this tat for? You'll never see it without several yoga lessons. Your proctologist or urologist? Your lover? The target audience is just too small to justify the pain of adding an artsy fartsy (ha) frame of your nether regions. Butt tats - don't do it!

Weekend Plans-
Long walk on Saturday - probably through San Francisco. Maybe a stop at Giardino Bros bar for a beer. Go to gym and hit the weights. Watch the food intake and stay away from junk.
Sunday - treadmill, gym, stretching, resting
