debating

To gym or not to gym? That is the question.
Whether tis nobler in the mind to suffer
the pains and soreness of outrageous workout,
or to lay down in the sea of my bed
and by opposing gain more flab? To sweat: to sleep;
don't know. And by a sleep to say we end
the will to pump the heart and a thousand natural shocks
that our feet feel on the treadmill. tis a consummation
devoutly to be wished. To sweat, to sleep,
to sleep, perchance to dream about six-packs and cupcakes. ay, there's the rub.
for in that sleep of laze our thighs will soon rub indeed.
When we have shuffled off that slothful feel,
must give us pause: there's the respect
that comes from energy and cardiac health of so long life
For who would bear the whips and scorns of an hour-long workout...


...enough being clever. I had to memorize that in high school... the real one, haha. I will go work out now. Maybe even take that 15-minute ab class.
