Ever get lost on a treadmill?

[KillerMuffin]

Because of my ep I get to do lots of wildly embarrassing ditzyish things and get away with it. Of course, sometimes its real too.

I get lost on treadmills. Stairclimbers too, but not eliptical trainers or bicycles. I fall off of those. Of course, it's amusing to wear full padded gear and helmet on a stationary bike.

I got lost on the treadmill again today. There I was, innocently listening to the Mortal Kombat soundtrack and watching Judge Judy wreak havoc mutely on the TV. I was walking a decent 3.0 mph on the mill and my workout buddy was huffin it on the bike next to me. I was having great fun watching my vague reflection in a window of my ponytail wagging side to side and imagining an interesting hike with the sojerboy in the treadmill in front of me *wow pant pant droooooool*. When all of the sudden the world went that way -----> then this way <~~~~~~ and I forgot who and where I was. Again. It gets old, as you can imagine. Moments later I was walking along, mystified. No idea where I was, where I was going, and why I couldn't seem to get anywhere. So I lean towards the chick on the bike next to me and ask her why I'm not going anywhere. She says something I can't hear over the soundtrack. So for about three minutes I was convinced I was in a horror karate movie. Then just as abruptly all was right in my world again. Except for the sojerboy, he'd started running and I had to chase him. Mmmmm what an ass.

My dilemma? Does anyone else ever do anything nearly as ditzy dumb as getting lost on a treadmill? Or is it just me?

I feel better now.

Mmmmmm. Siren, do you happen to have a good map of the treadmill? I have a compass, I just don't have a map. The sojerboys at the front desk just bust up laughing at me. I think it's the navy t shirt.

 

[Naked Hunny]

I've never gotten lost on a treadmill, but I get lost in the shower quite often.

I go in for a quick shower, and when I get out it's half an hour later than I thought it was. I have no idea where I detour to when that happens, but I know it doesn't take tht long to get clean.

No this has never happened to me on a treadmill but one question why didn't you turn it off?

I just didn't realize I was on a treadmill, I was quite lost, couldn't figure out why I was trotting and getting absolutely nowhere. The fact that I was in an airconditioned room with lots of machines and toodling along on a machine didn't penetrate the ol' brain. You know how it is.... *sheepish grin*

Nope, the aliens only abduct me when I'm driving at night, or hiking in the woods. I've taken precautions to keep them out of my apartment.

Splish splash I was taking a shower..

I cannot tell you how many times THIS has happened...

I do all my best thinking in the shower (yeah...ummm thinking). So I'll go to do that "lather, rinse, repeat" thang and realize that I can't remember whether I've lathered my hair up twice already, or if it's only been once. AUGH! This may seem insignif to the guys, but for us women it can be near catastrophic!

Never been on a treadmill...can't even imagine what would happen there.

Never got lost on a treadmill, but I did have to ask for directions while on a stair master!!!

LL, ya' know that "lather, rinse" thing could be avoided if you had a special someone IN the shower with you to keep track.
Yeah, like they'd be concentrating on your hair!!!

Ha ha. I'm worse than that. I really DO do all my best thinking in the shower. And sometimes I'll have wet my hair and then can't remember if I'd just wet it or actually lathered it ONCE. I end up lathering it again just to make sure I'd really washed it.

And I just thought of this thread an hour or so ago. I did something I don't normally do- take a nap on a Saturday afternoon. Except I expected to sleep less than an hour, I'm normally a very very light sleeper. I woke up more than 3 hours later, saw "4:45" on my watch and believed it to be 4:45 AM instead of PM. While I was trying to figure out why there was so much bright sunshine for that early in the morning, the phone rang. AT&T. Normally I hand up as soon as I hear the sales pitch start, but I let the woman start her spiel and briefly considered chewing her ass for calling me at 4:45 AM! I did say "no thanks" and hung up, but with hindsight, it would have been pretty funny to yell at her for calling so early in the morning to wake me up. Didn't realize it was late afternoon until I sat a minute or so longer and thought about it.
