\nMe: Why am I doing this.
\nMe<\/strong>: …
\nMe<\/strong>: Really. Do I care how I look?
\nMe<\/strong>: twenty, twenty-one?
\nMe<\/strong>: No. I don’t care. So why am I doing these damned crunches?
\nMe<\/strong>: Um… twenty-two?
\nMe<\/strong>: If I’m walking thirty minutes a day isn’t that ENOUGH?
\nMe<\/strong>: Er… twenty-three?
\nMe<\/strong>: My stomach is never going to be flat, why am I bothering?
\nMe<\/strong>: twenty-four.
\nMe<\/strong>: I hate this. I hate crunches.
\nMe<\/strong>: (sigh)
\nMe<\/strong>: (stares at the ceiling)
\nMe<\/strong>: Because. That’s why. Because it’s good for you.
\nMe<\/strong>: But I don’t like<\/strong> doing crunches. They’re boring. They aren’t doing me any good. I feel bloated.
\nMe<\/strong>: one, two, three…<\/p>\n
