A Hundred Pounds

Cold and stagnant the garage feels as I lift the dusty hundred pound bag for the first time at Alex's new house. Chains clink over the side and my forearms are starting to ache as he hangs the chains on the stand. This is the first time I'm going to put leather to a hundred pounds and I'm looking forward to it. We alternate out every five minutes through the bag, jump rope, and resistance cardio. In between we are doing pull ups and push ups. We do three rounds while sweat and fatigue weighs us down. An hour passes and we congratulate ourselves for being masters of the universe, then we retreat back into the kitchen for some pot roast and steamed vegetables. As the meat cooks for the last couple of minutes we have to get one game of foosball in first. I lose by two.
Rocky and Keemow look intently at our plates waiting for us to miss our mouths when feeding ourselves. Rocky is Keemow's favorite maltese. Owned by Jessica, Alex's fiance. We throw some fat their way.
I get back to the casa to have a quick clean up before Adam and Chris come over to discuss Jewish overlords, myspace as desolate as friendster, and ideas for indoor crawfish farms. As this conversation is carrying on, mind you, there is a movie on called the "One Eyed Monster". This movie is about Ron Jeremy's penis being possessed by some alien life form that must survive by killing women by deadly oral or intercourse. Its so horrible its hilarious, and its a real movie! Yes folks, thats right, it wasn't a porno! Only on Showtime!
