OMFG OW.
Holy crap I am SO. SORE. I had my first pilates class at Pure today and jaysus. I knew I was out of shape but aasdklfjsdlfk. I don’t feel quite so bad though because Elaine went with me and she was the same. LOL My lower back was CANING through the latter part of the class (honestly felt like some sort of hard ball was digging into my back). I have an inkling I’m going to be REALLY feeling it all over tomorrow. Eep.
Mum convinced me to book in with the physio tomorrow. I wasn’t going to but I think I need it. Lucky for me I have Eric, who is awesome. What’s even better is that he’s actually one of the pilates teachers for Lifestyle Therapies so I can ask him about stuff - namely what I can do to NOT feel so much pain when I’m doing the exercises.
Loooong day at work today. Started at 8:15 and didn’t finish until 5:30, though that was mostly because I was waiting for Mum. She was by herself (M wasn’t in) and absolutely run off her feet, so she worked back to get everything done. I didn’t mind too much - I had PLENTY of work to keep me busy, plus working that extra half an hour made up the extra time I took at lunch for my class.
Oh, and something else I meant to mention re: Pure. I did my actual sign-up with Emma (the manager) right after the class and two interesting things came out of it.
1) She had a look at my quote/enquiry form from last week and apparently Genevieve (who I spoke to last week) didn’t put down a quote for my joining fee (though she told me $49 at the time) so Emma said she’d just leave the joining fee this time. 8-O And the joining fee for 6 mths is usually $149!! *is very grateful*
2) I asked about what happens towards the end of my 6 mth contract when I move away. Emma said my best bet was to transfer the membership. YES, THEY ALLOW TRANSFERS TO OTHER PEOPLE. How great is that? Rather than copping a cancellation fee (which I think works out to be the remainder of your payments) they will allow you to transfer the membership to someone who wants to finish it off. Excellent. Fingers crossed I can find someone. 
Now I’m going to sit here (rocking chair + laptop) and watch this week’s Life & Pushing Daisies, which I haven’t yet had a chance to watch. Can’t wait!
