Recover Recover

Moleskine:

Exercise compliance was low among select members of the pax today, but the Q didn't complain (much) since non-Q attendance was up ∞% from the prior week. Some of the exercises prompted elevated grumblechatter, but if the War Daddy can do them, you young whippersnappers can do them! (OK, there were actually four respect-agers present, but I'm still older, so there!)

One of the soccer dads who saw me alone last week yelled out: "Are you makin' 'em pay for standing you up last time?" (Yes, I was.)

During Marys, the concrete was either too dirty, too dead-lizardy, or too hard, so Callahan and Smores opted for the Charmin-soft comfort of the playing field. Apparently, if you have a sensitive coccyx, you have to treat it gingerly!

T-claps to Aussie, Waffle House, Boar Hog, Smores, Callahan, and Hurley, who showed up either out of pity or lack of better options. You made it fun and a lot less sad! Always a pleasure, gentlemen!

Waterbean had a decent turnout and a few of us stayed for extended third-F engagement. Always one of the best parts of my week!
