Happy- working out with a friend at the gym. Hit some beautiful weights.
Squats, leg presses, leg extensions, calf presses. Did awesome. Probably moved over 100,000lbs in two hours.
Sad- And this really pissed me off!! Two of my best friends at the gym are Mexican. One was a professional wrestler in Mexico, and massive, unbelievable power, and one is just a bit bigger than average, muscle wise. But that really doesn't matter, both are American Citizens.
Tonight I was getting "dirty looks" from 2 fat old white guys, because I was working out with "non whites"!! Ever since this shit happened in Arizona, and now today, I haven't heard what happened, but a drug bust and someone killed. Yes, a tragedy, but why are people now becoming very prejudice!!! WTF, they are looking at my friends like they are now criminals and I'm some leper for standing beside them. Man, I was so pissed off. And I'm not one to hold back much. I very nearly lost it.
This fat ass was standing behind me as I'm doing leg extensions glaring at me in the mirror. I could tell my friend was very uncomfortable so I didn't make a scene. But I sure wanted to!!!
Part of me is mad that I didn't say anything, but I know that would have made my friends pretty uncomfortable.
My God people, nearly all of us were immigrants at one time!!!
