But You Lost It Somehow

Yesterday, I arrived earlier than usual at my gym in the hopes of finding the place empty. Although the weight room was as busy as usual, there was nobody in the locker room apart from one guy entering the communal showers.

I put down my bag and started getting changed. I noticed something fly past me: he'd strolled out naked and chucked his underwear on his pile of clothes. When he went back to the shower, he moved to a shower that stood directly in my line of vision.

I noticed he was staring intently at me as he soaped himself. He was probably in his early 30s, asian, muscular but not lean. I looked a second time, to be sure I wasn't imagining things (I thought until yesterday my gym was the straightest one in London). Turned out he REALLY was staring at me.

What disturbed me about the whole thing was that he had his mobile phone propped up on a bench beside the shower, blasting a R'n'B version of Roxette's "It Must Have Been Love" as sung by chipmunks.

He wants you call him Alvin and send him to his room. Holy shit, the fuckin chipmunks. Oh man I am going to laugh all day about that.

Sorry you had to be semi-stalked in order to bring laughter to the world.

I don't mind being stalked if it means the sun shines for one more day. ;-)

Jeez, I guess it could have been worse if the chipmunnks were bombarding you with "you are my sunshine, my only sunshine..."

Haha.
