So, an old lady made me feel bad today

thecakelocker · May 2013

I was in line behind a little old lady at the exotic pet shop once and she asked the counter guy for a bunny.

Guy, snottily: "We don't sell pet bunnies, we only sell feeder rabbits for large reptiles. They're not very nice."
Lady, exasperated: "I KNOW. It's for my 17 foot python."

My hero.

An elderly couple inspired the start of my "Weight loss journey"

When I was laid off three years ago I just kinda sat on my deck sulking and smoking cigarettes the first couple of months.

I noticed this couple,I would say they are in their 70's,speed walking passed my house everyday.

Finally something clicked and I said if they can do this everyday,you can at least give it a shot.

Three months later I was down the first 30 pounds.

I was out walking earlier this year and we crossed paths.I told them they inspired me.They seemed to really appreciate it!

My long term goal is to still be salsaing when I'm 70. Maybe I should raise the bar... :laugh:

You should go kayaking with her, dude! She sounds like she's a *hoot*!

Talk about taking badass to a new level. I'll be happy to be alive by seventy, let alone enjoying life as much as her.

Well, she was my motivation this morning.
My alarm went off at 5:30 and I REALLY just wanted to go back to sleep but, then I thought of her so, on went the shoes and shorts for a 30 minute jog.
