Ok. Apparently there is a rare anomally in the universe in which a human emotion or some other comparable cognitive machination condenses into a literal personification and is embodied, manifestly, in the body of a person. In the case of Vanessa, the girl I met at the gym today, that particular emotion in question is frustration. She is walking, talking frustration. My own frustration, mind you, not hers. It's doubtful she has much in the way of a capacity for frustration in any case. Please allow me to explain.

I get done with my workout and I'm doing my little routine of steam room, hot tub, pool, hot tub, pool again, steam room again, you get the idea. I call it the circle of doom. Actually I just made that up, but I've been meaning to give it all a nickname. This settles it. I digress.

I happen to notice a rather attractive female doing laps in the pool. I try not to stare of course, but she notices me noticing. I'm not into being rude, so I don't look at her anymore. I'm in the hot tub. She's in the pool. She gets out of the pool and comes to the hot tub. She looks right at me and smiles, sits next to me, and starts talking. I'm like - jackpot! She's totally hot btw. And I mean hot. I haven't been so physically attracted to a girl in awhile. I couldn't believe my good luck, until she's talked for a few mintutes.

She's stupid!! I'm not trying to be mean. I'm not a mean guy at all. But this girl is just stupid, not that I'm a genious or anything. I'm just saying - well below average to be sure. I was mortified. I go back to the pool and she follows me to it. We talk there for awhile, and then back to the hot tub. I'll be honest, part of me wanted to get her number anyway. I can't help it. I'm a guy, and my dna was just screaming at me to jump her bones. But that would have entailed me pretending to be dumb, or interested in her almost child like conversations, or something to that effect, and that would of course have been evil. So it turns out I have a soul after all and left without even asking for her number or anything. But how mind numbingly frustrating. 

Also, I had a nice workout today, and kept the calories to 1500 - with 500 of that coming from protein powder. There's some hunger involved here, but I'm used to it.
