A Tale of Two Mornings

QIC: Goofy

Date: 07/03/2019

PAX: Resitor, TheSingingCowboy, Sassy, Pancho, Tigger (WB), Lace, Manscape (WD), SgtSchultz, Goofy

8 resourceful pax posted this morning to B&W and made it up as they went along. 1 showed up very late. Below is the tale of each morning (or at least as I understand it to be)

Time Resourceful PAX Assigned Q
0500 Are awake and quietly preparing for workout so as not to wake up their M

 

Sleeping peacefully
0510 @Resistor rides by house and notes the  light on in my bathroom Q sleeping peacefully. M wakes up and goes to bathroom and thinks to self, “I thought my normally reliable husband was working out this morning.   Oh well, best let him sleep”  M goes back to sleep again.

 

0530 Various Pax: “Hey, where is Goofy? “He was tweeting last night.” “Oh and he texted me to be here.” “I thought I saw a light on in his house when driving by.”

 

Sleeping peacefully
0535 “I guess we should get started without him” The gates were still locked so they chose to work out by the upper lot/tennis courts

 

Sleeping peacefully
0542 The workout went something like this (or so I am told)

 

After a warm up, did the following:

 

Tennis courts partner work: each partner does one weight and one other exercise twice on either end of the tennis courts with

10 Copperhead Squats in the middle each time.

 

Curls/Plank Jumps

Skull Crushers/Star Jumps

 

Bent Over Rows/American Hammer

OH Press/LBCs

 

Figure 8’s/Monkey Humpers

Front Raise/Heels to Heaven

 

Q wakes up, thinks to self “Wow, I slept good last night… Wait, my alarm didn’t go off, what time is it?”   Turns on light and fumbles for phone. Says loudly “Oh Crap!!!” (or other choice words) M is startled and wakes up. “What is wrong?!? Q “I overslept!!” M with “that stare” says “I am so very sorry dear…now please turn the light off and shut up so I can go back to sleep”

 

Q sits up in bed. For a second deliriously thinks “Hey, I can still make it. I will just be a little late” – then consciousness and reality hits – it’s not happening. Sends regretful tweet. Then decides to post anyway.

 

Gets ready quickly and drives to beat down.

 

0602 After asking if everything was okay.   Some say nice things to assigned Q and some more appropriately give Q deserved crap Arrives at B&W, turns on promised tunes, prepares for the deserved crap, and tries to seamlessly join in for what little workout is left.

 

0610 Mary: Round Robin with some mutton crunches, alternating shoulder taps, crunchy frog

 

 

0615 FIN

  • No excuses – just a full out forgot to set my alarm.
  • Tclaps to the ever resourceful Pax who likely didn’t skip a beat and kept things on track and moving ahead this morning.
  • I must admit, YHC was glad that @Cobra didn’t post to witness this miss.
  • YHC is very grateful for the men of @F3WinstonSalem and the honor to be with you. Tclaps.

    This happened to YHC Qing last week at Flatline… that panic sets in and then the back and forth indecision for posting late or not is hard to overcome! Way to show up, better late than never!

    Cobra may not have posted, but he knows about this. And he will take corrective action. It will be sudden and silent. Be afraid, Goofy. Be very afraid.

      This reminds me of an old joke. If you can see Cobra, Cobra can see you. If you cant see Cobra, you may be moments away from death.

    I thought Goofy’s BB took the cake until I read Resistor’s comment…

    Only those who post can bust balls on the Q. But I can’t help but laugh at “If you can see Cobra, Cobra can see you. If you can’t see Cobra, you may be moments away from death.” What kind of a-hole builds that sort of rep 😁.

    Sorry to miss this classic. Dealing with another injury. But thanks to Toe Tag’s recommendation of a book that appears will be helpful on preventing injury vs reacting to injury.

    Miss you guys. Happy and safe 4th to y’all.

    Aye

      Nothing but respect. Of course it’s an old Chuck a Norris joke, of which I store far too many in what little storage space I have in my brain.
