Maybe I'm that weirdo at the gym.

DH and I have been going to the gym to do our C25K program. I like to stretch in the sauna when we're done and I've noticed these weird crescent shape bruises all down my leg since we started this routine. So we're sitting there, soaking with a couple other strangers in the sauna. My legs are stretched out along a whole bench, I'm touching my toes and I look down in the water and notice the four jets along the bench are making these amazing impact craters in the fat on my legs. I lift my leg out of the water and behold!! 4 new crescent shaped bruises!! I start laughing hysterically because I realize the sauna has been giving me hickies (and also because I'm exhausted and a little punch drunk).

The two other people in the sauna stand up and leave. DH is giving me this look of confusion and concern. I try to explain. Stretching, jets, hickies . . . This does not help.

If you were one of those two people in the sauna, I'm very sorry.
