In my continued pursuit of good health and the ultimate goal walking/running a 5k this year, I just bought a treadmill. I had a friend and her truck help me pick it up from the store. After she left, I opened the box and faced the phrase: "two person assembly required." Can I just say as a single girl that is perhaps the most annoying phrase.
Someone once asked me why I didn't have a real Christmas tree. There are a few reasons--cost, ease, convenience, allergies, and being single. It takes two people to set up a Christmas tree. You can't put a Christmas tree in a stand with one person. It's a two person job. I have moved, put Christmas lights up, hung pictures, and changed a tire by myself. However, I have no idea how one person can put up a Christmas tree. All my friends have their own families, so I'm the odd girl out. Whatever, I like my fake, single person assembly required tree.
So I open this treadmill with all these good intentions and see two person assembly required. This time, I said f*** it. It took me an hour, a few bruises, and some ingenuity, but this single girl assembled that damn treadmill all by herself!!!
Now I just have to use the thing :)
