Geronto Guilt

In the first two weeks of this month, i began to cut out from gym class -- in part on account of deadlines and in part on account of a low grade cold that was going around.  I made up the missed sessions but doubling up on the next work out.  Back at the gym, ran into one of the regulars.  "Where ya' bin..." yadda, yadda.  "Well i was missing the past two weeks but did make-ups."  "Ah...," he smiled, "working off guilt, huh?"

And that's about the sum of it too.  The body doesn't work that way; it is not a double entry ledger.  Really.  What the body wants is consistency.  Low grade consistency is actually happier for the body than a double dose make up that supposedly puts you over the top.   I mean duh.... 

Anyways... back to consistency (i hope).
