dropping a bit of weight...

Well, let me tell you about today's gym dumbass. Let's call him Too Close For Comfort, or TCFC for short...

I was doing shoulder presses when I noticed this guy suddenly stand next to my bench to do barbell curls, very close to me, at the same time I was doing my set of shoulder presses, even though there was more than enough floorspace within safe distances. Worse of all, he was so close that the end of the barbell could have crashed with my elbow had the timing been off...

However, timing was the least of anyone's problem. I have really screwey shoulders, and sometimes they (or more accurately, my left shoulder) cooperate when I do shoulder presses, sometimes they don't. Today was one of those non-cooperation days. Not fun when you have 14 kg dumbbells in each hand. So I ended up having to suddenly drop the left dumbbell...

I'll bet TCFC will be more careful the next time he finds a spot to do his barbell curls or whatever the fuck he decides to do in the gym. Though you'd think one would have more sense to avoid having to learn hard lessons in the first place...

Oh, and the fucktards who work at the gym fucked up royally this morning regarding who was going to work there and open up and stuff... so I was there at 6-ish as usual (opening time is 6:15) and gave up waiting for them to open up at 6:35... so no cardio this morning (my equivalent of a cup of coffee), which led to a bad mood most of the day... I found out they didn't open until 7... *sigh*
