Why do you lift?

canadianlbs

1. i have a somewhat neurotic fear of my mail.
2. i have been letting it pile up for weeks.
3. on the weekend i discovered that one of my bank cards expired.
4. phoned bank and found out they mailed me new cards.
5. start doing the mathy stuff in my head that means i don't have to face the mail yet because cash, and i won't run out for a while.
6. friend emails and announces we Must go and eat at chipotle real soon. i re-do the cash math, go through my mail and locate both the cards.

if i hadn't been deadlifting, the mere notion of food would not have been enough to make a normal grownup of me.
