Going to the gym has always been an arduous task for me. So here's a nice representation of what is coursing through my mind when I actually decide to go.

1. Today is the day

2. I will actually go this time and not chicken out

3. But if I don’t go, the only person who will know is myself and I can take her

4. However, I am trying to “get fit” and blah blah blah

5. Okay, I’ll do it; I really will go this time

6.Now I just have to find the perfect large t-shirt with leggings combo

7. Oh man, can’t find a sports bra, guess I can’t go this time, better luck next week

8. Jk found one in the dryer

9. Alright, no more excuses

10. Gotta grab my headphones and water bottle and were outta here

11. Lets get this show on the road

12. Should I walk or drive to the gym?

13. Definitely drive, 55 is too cold to walk that long in

14. No it’s not, but too late I’m already in the car

15. If I walked to the gym, would that burn enough calories for me to be able to skip it and go get some food

16. A nice milkshake would be great right now

17. Or a smoothie bowl

18. I could just replace the gym with a smoothie bowl, right? No?

19. Look at all those losers walking

20. I feel like the queen driving to the gym

21. Do you think the queen goes to the gym?

22. Probably not, she’s too cool

23. Swiggity swaggity we are here

24. Now time to find a parking spot

25. I hate parallel parking; it’s literally the worst

26. Who designs car horns for a living?

27. I’m going to take the stairs instead of the ramp because exercise is important

28. Kidding, that was a bad idea, I’m slightly winded, but I guess that’s why I’m here

29. Okay I’ve remembered my gym id number so I don’t look like a freshman

30. Beep boop bop beedop bop bop; I feel like a spy, just call me "double O Sean"

31. So we spend money to have these hand scanners but can’t afford better food in the dining hall?

32. It’s fine… it’s not that fine

33. This thing didn’t even recognize my hand

34. Second times the charm

35. Third times the charm

36. Okay, I’ll take off my ring now and see if that works

37. I guess that was the issue

38. Now we’re officially in

39. Why can’t they just have an escalator to the second floor?

40. Time to pick out what fresh tunes I want to listen to on this fine day

41. The Black Panther album? I think yes

42. This album slaps

43. That’s what cool people say, right?

44. Why are there so many people here? Can’t I just die in piece?

45. Let’s hop on this fine elliptical right in front of the TV’s

46. Why are they playing Disney Channel? Who watches it anymore after all of the good stuff ended?

47. I am now fully invested in K.C. Undercover

48. Look at Zendaya go

49. I don’t think I can go on for longer

50. Just gotta push myself to 15 minutes

51. Okay that’s over now time to clean the machine

52. Whoa are those noodles or my legs?

53. Definitely noodles

54. Time to do some weights

55. I feel like a kid in a candy shop trying to pick what to do

56. Jk this is nothing like a candy shop, I’d 1000% rather be there than here

57. Let’s start off low, I’m not trying to look like SpongeBob when he tried to lift weights

58. Just imagine if people’s arms could just rip off like that and then be perfectly fine the next day

59. Bikini Bottom is a wacky place

60. Now my legs feel like noodles again from this leg press

61. Am I walking weird?

62. I can tell you right now that I will not be getting on that hell of a machine called the “stair stepper”

63. That machine is hell on earth

64. I think I’ve done enough for the day

65. I deserve a nice pat on the back

66. Time to skip and skedaddle on out of here

67. Maybe not skip, but just a nice slow walk

68. Now I’m hungry

69. If I burned calories then I can eat whatever I want for lunch, right?

70. What will it be today?

71. Something healthy?

72. A nice smoothie bowl?

73. Cava

74. What about Chick-Fil-A?

75. Ooo or Cookout

76. Or McDonalds chicken nuggets?

Maybe one day I'll consider myself a gym rat, but for now it's just a lengthy task.
