Whoo! My darling niece took me out for my first real run in ages. Though "run" might be a generous term for it. Midna ran while I tried keeping up.

She's got this whole routine planned out to get me back into some kind of shape.

(Though round is technically a shape, thank you)

She swears up and down she could sign me up for one of those pole dancing exercise classes but I don't think anyone needs to see all of this me trying to make his way around a pole, much less a whole group of people.

No, we'll stick with some running and some yoga, see where that gets us.

	It's good she's got a partner other than the pup! I personally prefer the zen of yoga, but the cardio's supposed to get the best results. I'm Zelda, by the way. She's mentioned you plenty! (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Can you really call that beastie a pup? Oh you're Zelda! Yes, yes, I've heard about you too. I'm very happy for both of you! You're welcome to join us for yoga any time, of course. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You should hear him whine over a piece of bacon. Complete baby. Thank you! And of course, I'd love to. Yoga outside is guaranteed some sweat with the weather we've got. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Well so do I, honestly. Oh good, sweaty's good. That mean's you're doing it right, I heard. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Running well's a good skill to have with the strange things that happen around here. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Thank you for that slightly odd advice. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	You did pretty good with the running, Uncle Ironpaws! I still think you could tackle the pole too, like I said, any size or shape can - but we'll get you limber with some yoga first. :D (Reply to this) (Thread)

	ironpaws 2016-07-24 11:06 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah, I'll go ahead and get a little more bendy with the yoga, first. Then we'll see about hefting all of this around a pole. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I got your back. We can even do beach jogs, it's like a million times better on sand. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	By better do you mean more difficult? (Reply to this) (Parent)

	...pole dancing? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	ironpaws 2016-07-14 12:13 am UTC (link)
	Very good for your core, apparently. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	noturlittleman 2016-07-14 12:51 am UTC (link)
	I don't doubt but I think I'll stick to my usual workout. Although that is an image, if we're being honest. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh friend, you have no idea. I am not a small man, but apparently anyone can do it. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Everyone else working late at the office couldn't understand why I was crying. It's hard to explain just how much I was laughing. Please, I beg you, stick to the running. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	You are sooooo awful. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	bagheera_ 2016-07-16 12:12 am UTC (link)
	How am I awful? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You should totally ~encourage~ your hubby's pole dancing desires. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	bagheera_ 2016-07-16 12:22 am UTC (link)
	I'm not so sure he desires it as much as he's too nice to say no. I do, however, encourage you getting him out of the house. Maybe I'll join you two for a run sometime. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	twili 2016-07-16 12:25 am UTC (link)
	It was his idea to potentially take lessons to impress you! I thought it was an awesome idea. And cute. But you should definitely join us for a run, that'd be fun. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	bagheera_ 2016-07-18 09:21 am UTC (link)
	It would certainly strike me with somesort of awe. I'd hate to out run you. :) (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	twili 2016-07-18 09:38 am UTC (link)
	Neverrrrr! I am young and spry, you're and old and creaky. ;D (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	bagheera_ 2016-07-22 01:08 am UTC (link)
	Psh. I'm offended by so much of that statement that now it's a matter of pride. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	twili 2016-07-22 08:27 am UTC (link)
	Well, I mean, plus I can open portals. So I might cheat. But maybe because I like you a lot, I won't. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	bagheera_ 2016-07-23 01:07 pm UTC (link)
	Also, you're above cheating. I should hope. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	akfdskjslkjlka Yeeeees. Especially when you give me the Disappointed Dad look. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	For not being a father, it's a look I do very well. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	twili 2016-07-23 01:15 pm UTC (link)
	With me in the family, you had plenty of practice at it! (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I am trying yoga and you can't stop me. In those hot pink shorts you keep thinking you've managed to throw away but keep sneaking back into my wardrobe. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	bagheera_ 2016-07-25 05:45 pm UTC (link)
	Yoga is acceptable. How do you know the pink shorts survived unpacking? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ironpaws 2016-07-28 11:46 pm UTC (link)
	No, you didn't! I'm so hurt. I'm getting more. Dozens of pairs. In different colours. The kind that say JUICY across the butt. (Reply to this) (Parent)
