The Gym

The Peacock was at the gym today. He does have a beautiful body. Oh why is he called the Peacock? He struts around like a peacock and sometimes he even walks like a bird. Peacock was the first thing that came to my mind the first time I saw him strutting about.

Over time, I’ve given all the regulars nick names. I’ve actually learned some of their names in the attempt to investigate their nicknames. Like Zodiac – he’s got two zodiac tats. I asked him about them and he told me one was his zodiac symbol and the others was his late wife’s. He’s a really sweet man with the biggest biceps I’ve ever seen. Then there is JJ – short for jabber jaws aka mr. talky aka the socialite. He's the friendliest guy at the gym by far. I rarely see him working out...mostly he's talking to people.

The next friendliest are the King and Queen. They are both in peak shape. I think they’re dating. Many times they come in and they always say hi to everyone before and during their work outs. Then, there are Ghiradelli and Lindt because I can’t decide which one is the more delicious chocolate. And there’s Verde – I’m green with envy over her arms. Then there is the Sit-up Maniac. She does sit-ups with such intensity I think it ends up being a hard core cardio work out as well. I know there is a better name out there for her especially with the suggestive way she works the exercise ball. But, Sit-up Maniac will have to do. There’s a couple personal trainers that notice I working all the time. One is called Crush because all his clients seem to be crushing on him. The other is just plain Yummy. There’s a really nice girl I exchange pleasantries with once in awhile. I haven’t come up with more than Nice for her. Marley has long hair (dredish looking), nice chest, and beautiful biceps.

But Rising Sun is the one with the best body. His sun tat on his shoulder is where he gets the name from. For awhile I called him Avoids, as he avoids eye contact with me and everyone constantly, despite my attempts to catch his eye. He is also my crush. He has beautiful blue eyes and a pleasant voice. I know he wants me (ha, ha). One of these days I’ll ask if he has any hidden tats he’d like to show me.
