Hi! Come join me in the fart zone!<br /><br />P - That is a definite benefit of working out at home. Unfortunately, I'm usually either too busy with the kid or so unmotivated at home.<br /><br />Hillary - Now that you say that, I realize I used to blush a lot more than I do now! <br /><br />jen - Yes - dogs are totally helpful for that, and so often truly to blame. Maybe I can start blaming my kid...<br /><br />Lynsey - That idea has me giggling. I can't believe you just walked over here and farted! Hahaha!<br /><br />Dana - I know I would totally tell a friend of mine about the farter in the gym. Because I am hugely immature like that.<br /><br />Tia - Hahaha - and if anyone asks, you can't really say, "oh, I'm laughing at a fart poll" without sounding really weird.<br /><br />swaaaan - You are right! Stuff just gets moving. This explains a lot - I never connected it before.<br /><br />Luna - So funny! I would totally give that look if there were more people around to blame it on.<br /><br />Susan H - I definitely bank on not looking like that type of girl. Unfortunately, I can never get away with that at home.<br /><br />Maiden Metallurgist - I went with B but definitely considered C.<br /><br />Go-Betty - I must find that clip and watch it. Hilarious!<br /><br />Lynn - This is so awesome. And so true!<br /><br />tamater sammich - I always like Lynn's comments.
