She did not phrase it that way but told me she has a "heavy spiritual practice" that has cured her of multiple ills (an eating disorder, an alcohol problem, and I guess whatever else). And now she's presumably perfect (I say that not literally.). I was intrigued and said I'd consider it. I tend to start and then drop out of stuff like that, so I felt reticent to get in a weird gym relationship, one that could get awkward, with someone I see so often. At the same time, she does have a glow about her. I told BB when i got home, and BB said, "I think you have enough of a glow. I don't know that I want you glowing too much more." Teehee. I think BB is skeptical.
After we spent all this time talking, I worked out by doing 30 minutes on the stairmaster while continuing with the Netflix show, Afflicted (doc series on chronically ill folks). Then I did 30 minutes on the weight floor.
My elderly pal, Miriam, was in the locker room both when I arrived and when I left. She said, "I'm so lazy today." I asked her what she'd done here (at the gym), and she said with a smile, "I washed my hair." She's a cutie.
Happy exercising, friends! Hmmm... To take the class in order to be perfect or to remain imperfect. That is always the question.

That's a lot of pressure to put on one online class/presentation. lol
I agree with BB in that you are perfectly glowy now but if your interest is piqued, I would tell her that you would love to support her but cannot commit to it long term once the school year gets underway.
I will likely do manual labor today but no structured workouts. I did vacuum the whole house before bed last night, though.
