Dear Diary:

It's probably a good thing that I don't have a penis.

One of the things you might not know about me is that there are times in my life when I completely understand why animals lift their legs and pee on things to mark them as their territory.

And, well, if I had a penis I'm not sure I could resist the temptation to mark the leg press machine at my gym.

Oh, who am I kidding?

If I had a penis, I would mark the leg press in a heartbeat. Thus (and really, don't you feel that the world is a better place every time we see the word "thus"?) I think we can all agree that me being a penis free zone is probably for the best.

Why the obsession with the leg press machine? Well today I bumped it up to 375 pounds which makes me Queen of the Leg Press at my gym. As far as I know, no other woman is pushing that kind of metal. Not that I'm insanely competitive or anything and would, you know, ask the trainers about that.

After all, pinning your self-esteem to pushing heavy amounts of metal up in the air with your legs for no apparent reason Would Be A Pitifully Sad Thing To Do.

It must have been someone who looked like me who questioned the trainers, eh?

This template is a riff on a design by the truly talented Quinn. Because I'm a html 'tard, I got alot of pity coding to modify it from Ms. Kittay, a woman who can make html roll over, beg, and bring her her slippers. The logo goodness comes from the God of Graphics, the Fuhrer of Fonts, the one, the only El Presidente. I smooch you all. The background image is part of a painting called Higher Calling by Carter Goodrich which graced the cover of the Aug. 3, 1998 issue of The New Yorker Magazine.
