The last couple of weeks Molly and I started doing these classes at the gym:
Bodybalance
Bodypump
Bodybalance is pretty cool since it combines Tai Chi, Pilates and Yoga and helps on flexibility a lot. Believe it or not, these last two weeks I felt the difference on my back. As I understand people mostly associate this class with women (I am the only man in the class along with the instructor) but it is a really good workout and helps you finish your day calmly and relaxed.
Bodypump is a little bit tougher since we are using weights and we are exercising all major muscles of the body. It is demanding and there are times that I feel like crying from pain - especially on the lunges and abs -. Another great workout with great results!
Another advantage of these classes is the fact that they keep us busy and make our body tired. So we usually spend weeknights at home, instead of going out and eating drinking (Thursdays and Fridays are always excluded)

Getting ready ritual
Scene: My room
Plot: Molly getting ready so we can go out at 10.30
I have taken my shower, did my hair and I am laying on the bed playing on the computer. I am still not dressed but knowing that it only takes me 3 minutes to wear my clothes, I guess I can do that when Molly tells me "I am ready". Because "I am ready" means I still have to put shoes and jewellery.
Molly is trying on her jeans. She has three jeans she is thinking of wearing and she wants my opinion. For the sake of simplicity let's call them Jean 1, Jean 2 and Jean 3. Here is the dialogue after she tries them on.
M: So what do you think?
A: Hm..I kind of like Jean 1 and Jean 3. I am not sure about Jean 2.
M: Really? (surprised obviously because I didn't pick the one she wanted to wear). Why don't you like Jean 2?
A: I like it, I just prefer one of the other two.
M: Don't you think it makes me look good?
A: You look good in everything baby mou.
A few moments pass..Molly is now doing her makeup when I noticed that she changed and is now wearing Jean 2. Meanwhile my brother texts me and tell me to meet at 10.45 instead of 10.30 because they are running late. Of course I do not tell Molly anything about it. A new dialogue.
A: Thank you for picking the Jean that I said "no" to (sarcastically of course)
M: Well..Don't you think it is cute?
A: Did you ask for my opinion so you can wear the one that I said no to?
M: Let me try Jean 2 and Jean 3 again.
Molly tries them on again. A new dialogue:
M: What do you think?
A: Ok, you can wear Jean 2. It looks fine. I can't tell.
M: Well, now I like Jean 3.
Molly wears Jean 3. We are ready to leave. I put my jean and shirt after she tells me "I am ready". We are on time - the 10.45 time - which Molly never knew. Another "getting ready" adventure is over.
