5 inch story: Burden with glorious purchase

I walked into a comic book store and was looking for a new read, Loki: Agent of Asgard.

The worker informed me he doesn't have any copies left. "Dang it," I said. 

He added, "It seems like a popular item with the women." 

"Oh it is. It is apparent on Pinterest. I think women are attracted to personality and intelligence... also the bad boy appeal," I said. 

"I don't know, I don't have feelings on it." Ponders over his strait man radar. "It really doesn't help that the first three pages in the comic book is him showering."

"Really?!" My interest in this comic has gained in level.

The 5 inch Story: The Woman From The Locker Room

A woman started to talk to me in the locker room after my workout. She is 340 lbs. overweight. Her goal is to loose weight for her knee surgery. She was fired from her job due to her weight and dealing with her her mom alzheimer's.

She smiled regardless - and said, "I'm going to the pool, it's the best after my workout. You should try it sometime." I declined because of going to work. 


However, I congratulated on her accomplishments asked for her name - Sherri. 

No matter how hard to workout, remember those who are also fighting their battles around you. Learn their names and say hi.
