so i keep having random older gentlemen conversations and with one in particular who lives in my building. somehow i keep running into him when he’s working out or on his way to working out. the first time, he overheard me speaking with the building trainer and was all, you have such an unusual accent where are you from? i’m american, HE’S american, so i’m not sure where the unusual accent part comes in. I have a flat stereotypical average american accent. as does he. weird.
then the other day i got into the elevator on my floor (near the top of the building) and he was already in there in workout gear. i get in and face the door, not making eye contact because i wasn’t in the mood to have a little chat.
” are you, as they say, going out?”
“yes, i’m going to yell at someone” (which i was, because i had to dispute a bill that i’ve had to dispute multiple times this year)
“oh. i’m doing 30 chest presses. they just wear me out.”
“so you’re taking a break in the elevator?”
“well, i have to do them in sets of light, medium, and hard because they just kill me.”
(door opens, fleeing begins)
“all right, enjoy your workout”
“it’s the same one daniel craig does. see you later.”
he’s older, i don’t know maybe 50’s or 60’s. daniel craig’s workout? really?
also, is he just practicing on me for when he goes out? i live in a place where there are many lovely ladies just waiting for an older gentleman to sweep them off their feet. these ladies are stereotyped as being beautiful, loving family, cooking, doing things to keep their man happy, etc. i’m cranky and chubby and mainly like to have men think of ways to keep me happy. why is he talking to me? he should be talking to those ladies.
though it is amusing. unusual accent. daniel craig’s workout. what’s coming next???
