[Prudence]

IAC is now the IMA and it's $200 membership for staff (or $60/on a quarterly basis, $5 single use). It's not gobs of money over the course of the year, but it's a lot for me to shell out now for a place that's inconvenient. Plus, if I forget to wash my workout duds no one cares except the cats, and they just give me the stinkface while they watch me plod along.

What's the most frustrating right now is that my shins won't even let me start out at the beginning of any program - I'd be thrilled just to get to the "starting line". I suppose the good news is that the rest of me is ready and eager to do more, it's just the shins that are being difficult, and they've never been the same since I injured them learning a dance routine in high school. (It involved cossack kicks while "playing" a faux violin. In 2 inch heels.)
