Chapter 3: A Surprise Early Morning Gym Visit

Picture
Eyes: Warning! Warning! I see the inhaler.

Brain: Shoot. I was really trying to keep this quiet.

Legs: What? What time is it?

Brain: 9 a.m.

Stomach: Umm, you know we JUST ate breakfast?

Brain: That's why I was keeping it a secret.

Common Sense: That might not have been the wisest idea.

Brain: Today, we're just doing sprints. It will be over before you know it.

Common Sense: Sprints?? REALLY not a wise idea.

Stomach: Legs? You wanna weigh in here?

Legs: We had a rest day yesterday. We're good.

Butt: We also had a sciatica flare up yesterday. This could be a problem.

Brain: Here we go... entering 9.4 mph...

Stomach: Wait! Abort! Abort!

Brain: Too late...

Stomach: Uuuuuuuuggggggghhhhh... yes it is...

All the Blood in the Body: Hey! Stomach needs help! Let's all go and meet there.

Stomach: Bad idea! Bad idea!

Blood: Too crowded in here. Food, you will need to leave.

Brain: Relax, the first sprint is over.

Stomach: FIRST? You intend to do more?? Do you realize how bad this could have been?

Vanity: Eww. That would have been very bad, very bad. Brain, you better listen to Stomach.

Brain: Nope. Get over it. 5 more to go. We don't quit.

Vanity: Stupid.

Stomach: Subconscious, help us out?

Subconscious: Whoops! There goes the iPod. Can't run without that.

Stomach: Excellent...

Vanity: No! How embarrassing!

Brain: Please. No one else here is running over 9 mph. Go ahead and let them say a word to me.

Stomach: Okay, go pick up the iPod. (snicker)

Subconscious: Aww, did I step on a shoelace?

Vanity: Really, we've got to get out of here before people start laughing.

Brain: No! We finish! 9.4...

Stomach: Not againnnnnn...

*** after 5 replays and near Stomach-led revolt***

Stomach: OK, we're done. Get out of here quick before I do!

Body opens door to leave.

Stomach: Ahhh. Fresh air. That's all I needed. Better now.

Brain: Whiner.
