Annoyed in Open Diary 2001-2018 (Pre-Prosebox)

Canuk called while I was at the gym last night, taking the worst class I’ve ever participated in and then trying to do some extra weights to make up for it. First of all, I mixed my days up and was thinking that there was a yoga class during that time frame. Nope. It was a hi/lo aerobics class. And I’m 99% sure it was the instructor’s first time teaching. By the time I figured all of that out I was already warmed up, and there were only two other people in the class, and she was so pathetic….I didn’t want to give her a complex, so I decided to grit my teeth and work myself as hard as I possibly could. It worked okay until the poor little instructor fell down right in the middle of doing knee lifts! I felt so awful for her and asked her if she was okay. She was embarrassed, but came back around (sort of) and finished the class. I was so disappointed in my workout that I ran straight for the weight room and hopped on a few machines to try and finish what I’d started. Luckily, I found it quite fun. There were mirrors everywhere and quite a few handsome distractions to watch at funky angles in the mirrors (trying not to be too obvious!!).

I came home and checked my messages. Canuk had called to make plans for Saturday night. I honestly didn’t feel like talking to him at all. I just wanted to wind down, but knew I needed to talk to him. Sucked it up and dialed.

I think it possibly would have been a million times better had I not called. I was tired and grouchy, and lately Canuk has had this way of getting under my skin. I don’t quite understand it, but something about him just bugs. Probably the fact that he actually likes me and is interested in really getting to know me and asks some really probing questions. But all the questions, question, questions…..they just irritate!

I think it’s because every time I answer one of his questions, he asks another and another and then questions my answers….like maybe I’m wrong or something….or he doesn’t agree with my opinion.

Whatever. It’s no biggie. Everything will be fine once I get there. I just feel badly about how our conversation went last night, that’s all. He noted how irritated I was and told me that he was going to bed.

I will not screw this up. I WILL NOT screw this up!

I’m going to go to New York and work my ass off and have a good time while I’m doing it. I’m going to try to stay relatively calm and relaxed (is that possible to do in NY City?), and I’m going to really delight in the fact that I’m going to get to see my best friend and her husband AND have a great guy on my arm AND get paid for it!!

And I’m not going to be annoyed with him once I’m there.

Oh how I wish that class had been yoga!
