Happy Hour
While doing my long hours of cardio (walking the dog with my daugher) We passed a restaurant. My daughter read the sign on the side that said "Happy Hour 3-8" Her question was, "what is happy hour and why is it five hours long?" I laughed and explained to her that when people get off work, often times they will stop on their way home to have a drink and relax before they go home. That is referred to as happy hour.
My daughter laughed adn said "wow, I think dad needs to do that". I laughed and told her there were many days in my past that I often participated in happy hour. Unfortunately it usually turned into happy night.
These days my happy hour is the hour I spend at the gym. There is no better way to de-stress than to pump some iron. Besides, there is also no worries about not going home for 5 hours, lol…

You don’t have a hangover… per se. Muscle soreness is one helluva hangover at times though! Seems to last longer than an alcohol induced hangovers!

Yes, but it is a soreness that leads to wonderful beautiful big muscles and lean body, unlike an alcohol hangover, it just makes you fat!
