Rowing Isn't Meant For Me

[[old] aurovon]

Haha, I'll tell you why.<br /><br />I've researched into rowing machine since end of last year but only done it twice or so. This week I did it once and I was planning to be serious about it starting from yesterday. Infact I was so excited the entire last week that I worried "What if" the rowing machine broke at our gym, then I can't use it! What if the chain breaks? Etc. Etc. That's just how I am, getting paranoid over things like this. Then I told myself I am an idiot for thinking this without any cause, and just focus on today. Whatever happens later on, you can take care of it then. This deals with any aspect of life I suppose. So yesterday I go to the gym and sit down at the Concept 2 and realize the display monitor is BUSTED. Not working. <br /><br />Heh, so much for being paranoid <br /><br />I still used it though. True I could not do the program I really wanted to because in order to do this I need a time display right infront of me, but I still used it. I hope they fix it real soon, which I doubt. Also I hope they don't put a "Not working" sign so then I won't be able to use it at all!<br /><br />//End rant

The screen is broken and there is a huge black spot on it.
