Whoever decided to attach a small screen to a piece of workout equipment is a genius. I cannot count the number of times this has saved me at the gym. Thank goodness for (#18) workout television. Provided that there is actually something interesting to watch, it makes the time go by very quickly. Plus I am distracted from the fact that I don't particularly enjoy what I am doing. I love the post workout feeling and I love feeling healthy, but to be honest sometimes I just really don't like being at the gym. Having entertainment right in front of my face helps me get past that. Nothing does the trick like your favorite show pushing you along. (Other than the occasional fireman who picks the machine in front of you!) So a big thanks to whoever put that sweet little idea into action.
Another great thing that happened at the gym today was that Emily and I discovered how to use the remotes attached to our ellipticals. Apparently you have to be moving to get the darn thing to start working. After our feelings of extreme stupidity wore off we were very excited about this discovery. It's hard to believe but our gym experience just got better.

You're giving me way too much credit in this story. I never in a million years would have figured that stupid thing out and who knows- there may have been a day when I flipped out at the Gold's Gym people, telling them that their stupid remotes don't work and their entire building smells like a sewer. I owe you a million for your discovery.
