This is me, taking showers

I have discovered the gym showers. These might be the single most amazing set of showers in all of Europe. The water is hot, and there is high water pressure, like a gift from the gods. I used to think one of the perks to living so close to the gym was not having to lug all of my things there and just coming home for a quick shower, but now I have seen the light, and there is no going back. In my new illuminated state (some might say obsessive state) I have become addicted to the gym. Working out is nice and healthy and all that crap, but the real reason I go is to have my nice shower. This has resulted in my visiting the gym nearly every day for the past couple weeks. Initially the man at the front desk was well impressed with my low blood pressure, which they insist on testing when you join the gym, and which he took as a sign of my great athleticism. But now that I am there so often he seems convinced I am some kind of super athlete. Luckily, the desk faces away from the fitness room so he can't actually see me working out, so the illusion can live on.
