a quick ode

So since my bonus came in a few weeks ago, I've been trying hard not to spend my money. Saving is an interesting concept to me since I've never really had any money to save.

Saturday night, out at a bar with Kyle, and 3 other random people who I've just met that night. We're all standing around in a little semi circle talking....

Kyle (to me): No you aren't.
Me: No I aren't what?
Kyle: Still doing that? (Points to my pedometer)
Bystanders: What is it? I thought it was a beeper, etc.
Kyle: Grabs it off my belt and starts shaking it.
Me: Jumping up and down like it's a monkey in the middle game "Give it back, you're making it cheat!"
Kyle explains to the rest of the group how I wear it every day and aim for 10,000 steps, as I turn about 15 different shades of red. Bystanders can't decide whether they are alarmed or intrigued.
Thank you pedometer, for that awkward moment in my life.

Whatever, I'm still wearing it! (8,400 steps already! But that counts my run this a.m.)

Best $5 investment, I'm happy you bought one!

That's terrible!

You do realize, however, that guys are just jealous that they can't pull off wearing one. Because yes, it's going to look ridiculous on a guy.

But on us, well why not? We're cute. Tough luck, Kyle.

(ps, I'm REALLY hoping that Kyle is a boy cuz if it's a girl, then my whole theory is out of luck and there really IS pedometer discrimination out there. Sad!)
