GYM blues

Ladies and Gentlemen, I am in intense physical pain.
Have just completed my second day of thirty minutes on the stationary bike and thirty crunches.
I cannot feel my legs.
My spine is on fire.
I think I am going to pass out.
God is this how I am going to go?
I have not even dated my sheik yet?
What about all my world jet setting?
I have not even had the upgrade to first class on BA, Oh God why me?
Should I call my mum?
What time is it?
No, she might just kill me herself.
Yee eeeee, my thighs!!!
Mo gbe, I think I am seeing a white light.
Idiot, it is just your neighbours driving down the street
I think I have shifted my liver
*sob* I am only trying to have a flat tummy, ehn, eze okwu
Maybe if I could just detach my legs for a while, it will not be as bad.
Jesus!!! What is this?
is my hair falling out?
Why is everything dark?
Oh, sorry, have to open my eyes first.
I don't know who sent me message. All these yeye summer ads on cable. Me too, I want a bikini
Am tired of my one piece suit. Besides, I have already slashed d thing with scissors into a two piece.
I am having a headache. Hey!!! I hope I am not having a haemorrage.
U should have turned back when u walked into that gym and everyone in there was skinny. I mean, everyone else used like six other machines while they had to scrape you off the second one.
I don't even know how I walked home in a straight line
How many fingers am I holding up? First, let me move my hand up to where my eye can see it cos I cannot turn my head.
Men, I have to find a way to get my hands on that hoodia plant cos I don't think I can go through this everyday.
Why is Jennifer Lopez taking off her clothes?
Where is the remote? Oh, it has been in my left hand all this while? No wonder, i could not lift my hand.
Is this heiffer singing in spanish? Idioto! How am I supposed to understand...
Let me see what else is on
CNN...
BBC...
MTV...
Africa Magic...Jesus!!!hell no
Discovery Home... what is this? Tips for summer get togethers? Pudding? Shio. Barbecued chicken, hmn, ok, roasted corn. these yeye oyinbo people and their culinary crimes. Why will you douse corn in butter?
*sob* I am hungry

My girl...I just have to say that you have a way with words. I can totally relate to everything you say and the vivid description is amazing.

I also go to the gym and have patented a way of doing 10 minutes flat and then slinking off.

Hang in there and think about your bikini bod!

exschoolnerd said...

Damn catwalq, this is classic, not your pains ooo...but the post. I'm so luving da randomness of it all.

It's a pity you feel the way you do, just don't forget that every Rose comes with a thorn. You gotta feel a lil pain before you enjoy glad tidings, eh!

Just take am easy abeg oo!

"I have not even dated my sheik yet...I have not even had the upgrade to first class on BA"

This is lovely! :)

At the same time, it strikes a chord on all those who want to look camera-funky and 'fanciful'. So much twist to it! Good stuff!

Hey there...I did not read your post, yet. I left a message for you in the comments section of Ms Iyanda's blog, but just figured you might not actually get to see it yet. You might want to try Amazon.com to get a copy of Half of a Yellow Sun...plus you might end up getting it cheaper than at B&N... take care, nice to 'meet' you

Anon said...

Good job working out...I try to get to point of exhaustion...succeed most of the time lol. Haha...I intend on wear a two-piece to the beach this summer! lol

Andrew F. Alalade said...

Ha ha ha ha! I am rolling in laughter here ooh!
The simple solution.....call the sheik and let him give you a massage. You get him and then you have your body pains disappear.
Next time at the gym, go with a pack of paracetamol or maybe something stronger.
See you in Hawaii lol!

chidi said...

IJEOMA said...

Had an affair with a gym last summer for all of two weeks. I think I died and saw the pearly gates, don't know how these people do it. if it aint broken don't fix it!

@Simply Gorgeous: d thing is annoying me. My stomach is reducing but I am not loosing weight. Me I do not find as long as my 38-30-42 becomes 38-24-40. U gets me?
@2 cents: omo dis love affair is wanning

LOL this was very humorous. Thanks for the kinds words you left on my blog. I was born in Haiti, which is where most of my book takes place, but I'm living in Florida. The book comes out in a few weeks. Keep checking the site for the exact date. And let me know if you want the preview which includes the complete first 2 chapters.

Simply Gorgeous said...

I hear you Catrwalq- so you want to have a Coca-cola bottle shape ? Ok, I hear you... don't worry babe you will achieve your aim. BUt sometimes when you lose weight it tends to lose weight all over.

Your 38 might drop to a 36 or 34 your 30 can either stay at 30 or reduce to a size 26 and your 40 can drop to a size 32....

It is good when you are excercising to weigh and look at your appearance to make sure you are comfortable at that stage.

Goodluck babe... keep me posted...

diary of a G said...

I read some of your Hi5 Toaster(s) thingy

Wanna be

chidi said...

LOL!!!

Brilliantly Me said...

LMAO!! Try waking up at 5 every morning and having to do 2 hours of grueling exercise in the hot sun under the command of a gym teacher that looks like she should be commanding a platoon of marines.

TMinx said...

He heee. Pele Catwalq, that was fun to read.

Olówó said...

Awww I feel your pain. Try doing the crunches on one of those exercise balls. I just purchased one cut of fear of losing my neck to those damned crunches

omohemi Benson said...

shhhh said...
