Well, I went and joined LifeTime Fitness today, and hauled my ass out of bed early and went in before work. I have been lamenting the rather terrible shape my years of desk-job sedentariness (is that a word? It is now, dammit) have gotten me into -- especially given that I was in pretty good shape once upon a time. So I'm hoping that a disciplined regimen of diet and exercise will shed a few pounds and get me back into the good shape I used to be in. At the very least, it will perhaps keep me from needing the services of my good friend Heather, the vegan cardiologist, and from having her fund her vacation home with my laziness. Heather is fun to hang out with, but I'd rather not have her cramming stents into my arteries. I have given her too many reasons to seek revenge over the years ("Uhhh, I don't want to tell you how to do your job, Heather, but I really didn't think you were supposed to place stents rectally using PVC pipe.")
With any luck, I'll be in much better shape, and Heather will have to settle for a smaller vacation home.
