Letters from NYC

I Think I'm In Love!

And not just any kind of love, but a deep incredible, first time kind of love. Sigh!
I’m trying really hard not to obsess and to take things slow, but without a doubt it’s true love at first sight. The kind of love that you’ll remember where you were and what you were doing when you first met. A forever love! I could hardly walk, let alone tear myself away afterwards. And no, it's not my endorphins talking here! I believe this is truly the real thing!! Let me fill you in.

There I was, minding my own business, fixing my shoe laces when my trainer decides to introduce us so that we could work out together. It seems he felt bad about my injury when I was last at the gym, and decided to turn me over to someone else for awhile. At first I thought, why is he doing this to me, I just want to get on the treadmill and get on with my workout. But when I looked up and straight ahead…POW, WOW, just like on a Batman episode. My mouth dropped open! What beauty, what figure, what strength? [Okay, breathe Michele….Focus] Sigh! [Big Silly Grin]

My trainer tried talking to me but I was mesmerized. Somewhere through the foggy haze in my brain I heard my trainer’s voice saying “has great experience, an excellent memory, will always be available to me”…my mind goes wandering off again into an incredible visual of how things can be between us. [I nod to pretend I’m listening] I still have the biggest, stupidest grin on my face you’ve ever seen. My trainer asks another question and I just respond with “ahuh!”. He just laughs, shakes his head and starts walking away.

Then as I slowly come back to earth he says, “I’ll leave you to your workout and I'll check back with you in an hour.” I barely got a “Bye” out of my mouth and just stumbled forward in a half daze and we decided to work on all my problem areas - instensely. Oooooooh!

My breath was taken away, I was made to feel feverish all over, and shortly after we started, I found myself to be all hot and sweaty. It was an incredible workout and time just seemed to fly by. I didn’t want to stop, I didn’t want to go, but my trainer forced me. He leaned into my ear and said I couldn’t hog him. “NOT FAIR” I thought, don’t the others know I’m in love. Can’t they see it in my eyes, my face, my soul?

Now I sit here counting the minutes, dreaming in fantasy land…I can’t wait until we see each other again tomorrow. In fact, I’ve begun to obsess. That’s it, I’m done for! [Big Sigh] I’ve never felt like this before. Yes there were times that I thought this was it, but no, this IS really IT!

What’s my latest love’s name? Precor!
