Quod scripsi, scripsi.
Do you know what is truly annoying?

When people run out of excuses, reasons and opinions on something you are arguing about and say something either off-topic, nonsensical or slanderous just to try to keep it going.

Like my Mom. I work out at a local gym- by work out, I mean cardiovascular activities. Treadmill, bike. Stuff like that.

She has some sort of obsession with lifting weights- she has been trying to get me to lift them for weeks now. I don't want to because I think that is a waste of time- I am strong enough from my size and from doing things around the house consistently.

I was dismissing her easily on the subject, and out of no where she says that I must be afraid of lifting weights.

o_o;

That I am afraid she'll find out that I can't "lift more than 20 pounds".

O_o;;;

That was kinda funny, really. I needed her to shut up so I could concentrate on things more constructive, so the best thing I could think of- given the location [my den]- to try to shut her up is to see how well she, compared to me, lifted our brand new, leather couch.

This leather couch is a very large couch- it is around three inches off the ground. To give you an idea, I'm six foot two or a little taller. I can rest with my head on one arm of the couch, and my feet just gently press against the other end.

A very large couch indeed.

I don't know how much it weighs- I think it is just below 100 pounds, maybe 80-90. I could lift one corner about 3-4 feet off the ground and hold it there indefinitely. That isn't a large accomplishment- I'm no bouncer- but it served my purposes well in the argument as she could maybe lift it a foot off the ground for a few seconds.

I guess maybe I should lift weights. My friend suggested to me something I agree with- I should do smaller weights for a longer amount of time so I don't develop huge muscles that only serve to *slow me down*. That would be more detrimental. o_O;

What do you think? Right now I was just casually aiming to lose weight, but while I'm there I could have a double agenda of sorts.

Eh. Doesn't matter I guess. o.o
