It was hideously nice today, probably 82°F. I went to the gym where Tina (the actual brains behind the gym) had made me a CD of “oldies” which are from when I was young so I deny the songs are old at all.

Dana the Trainer said, “What are you thinking, bringing candy to a gym?” I suppose I should have taken it all to a dentist’s office instead.<\/p>\n

Oh, and I didn’t really expect anything from my sister, but she and my mom got me a Nike Sumo driver! I may have to go to Golfsmith to ask them if I should swap it for the big square one that’s supposed to be easier to hit, but what a great present! Now to get some wedges…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
