blame my knee for this indignity

training for my back-up career as a stripper, $30

My right knee has risen up in protest against the trail of tears style running I've been doing of late. After last Thursday's 6 miles, I could barely bend it for four days. Which is how I found myself atBestBuy this evening in the fitness/workout DVD section.

TaeBo looked interesting until I visualized Bartleby catching a stray kick and becoming dangerously airborne. I hate Denise Austin. It is an unreasonable hatred, but her smile makes something in my kidney's catch fire. I finally settled on Carmen Electra's Aerobic Striptease: Vegas Strip:

Oh yes, I did. I am, and I quote, stripping my way to fitness. Because that is hilarious and also, has practical applications in the bedroom. This is genius. AND, classy.

The other title I purchased was 10 minute solution Tone Trouble Zones (body band included!!):

This one I got because it came with a giant green rubber band. And I didn't have one of those.

Please check out Em's portrait that she drew of me. It doesn't disappoint.
