Voice Of Mars: Soft As A Baby’s…

Astrology in real life

baby shampoo with baby“Yeah, I was surprised to see that guy this morning,” I said, referring to a man I collided with at the gym wearing a RANGER shirt. “You really don’t see that much of that around here.” I had already reported how the guy got out of my way when he saw me. “Anyway, that guy looked just like an ape. He really did look like an ape.”

“I suppose I look like an ape too,” he said.

I was going to tell he didn’t but he interrupted me.

“No, I look soft now, like a baby’s ass,” he said. “I am soft like a baby from not working out.”

I laughed.

“Yeah, they ought to put me on a baby commercial. Baby shampoo or something. They could see some shampoo using me as the commercial.”

“You think?”

“Yeah. They could have a baby in a tub getting their hair washed and me next to them in a tub, also getting my hair washed.”

I laughed like a hyena.

“Yep. And they could say, look at these babies. Look at them getting their hair washed. Don’t you wish you could be just like them?”

I snorted.

“Yep, one of them is a baby and the other is a grown man but just look at him there in the tub.”

“You don’t really feel like that,” I said.

“Yes, I do. I need a workout, you know how it is.”

“Yeah. Yeah, I do know how it is.”

Do you have to work out or else? Where is your Mars?

    I have to have physical exercise or I get depressed. My physical activity is linked to my emotional state (this is why I bike everywhere–2 hours a day is nothing, though I’m not super-fast or anything).

    Aries Mars/Sag ASC

    I could lie around eating cheese and crackers all day. I could spend several days doing this. But eventually Venus in Virgo would look down at me and say, “Ugh. Time to eat more green stuff.”

    I despise gyms and running and doing anything sweaty where anybody would be looking at me (okay, aside from the obvious). I don’t like things that wobble. I don’t like people looking at wobbly things. Therefore, the only time I ever work out is at home, when nobody is around, and to a workout DVD, with the curtains drawn.

    Seconded on I have to work out or I get depressed.

    Not that this keeps me working out very well.

    I also have ADD, and exercise is hands-down the BEST treatment for it.

    ADD also prevents you from scheduling and getting regular sleep, so the worse a state you are in, the less able you are to do the thing that helps you (the same is true of depression).

    Le sigh.

    I also have to work out or I get down or stressed. Yoga, Thai Chi, Pilates classes and an active job. Capricorn, Sag moon, Leo Mars and Scorpio Venus.

    Yes, I need to work out or I get crazy - depressed or so full of intensity that I scare people on the street. I really like lifting (small) weights or doing pilates. I also hate being looked at while sweaty & wobbling, so I just go to the gym to use the treadmill. I take really long walks around my neighborhood and try to find new restaurants and pastry shops. Taurus Mars.
