Commitment

Today Jess came home for lunch, and I asked him about his workout this morning. I thought I heard the sounds of dumbbells being moved around, because on the other side of our bedroom wall is the part of the backyard where he lifts weights. Apparently he did a COUPLE lifts, but didn't really work out, because Jordan didn't show up. So I laughed at them, because they've been "WORKING OUT" for 2 or 3 months now. Which meant they got up at 5:45 am 3 days a week, for about 2, maybe 3, weeks. Then it turned into planning workouts almost 5 days a week, and cancelling at about 5:40 am each day. Haha. They take turns being the one who flakes out. So I make fun of them regularly. Not really because they aren't following through, because I wouldn't either, that early in the morning. It's more because they text each other every weeknight with their big plans, always pretending to be serious THIS TIME. Haha.

So today during his lunch break, he kept me laughing so hard I was almost crying, by reading me the last several texts they exchanged. So I told him I would need the transcripts for my blog tonight. He's agreed, and suggested I title this post "Commitment". I'll start back a ways, and maybe we'll make this a recurring installment on this here blog. Here we go:

Jordan, Sept. 9th, 5:43 am: "No worries of to" (Yes, that's what he wrote. Judging by his reply time and typing errors he'd missed his alarm and wouldn't have made it anyway)

I have another month's worth of similar texts here, but I'll save them for another time. Haha.

I should really be quilting, or otherwise preparing for having a baby. Nighty night.
