now i know.

today i was at Target.

I had just left the gym after a grueling 2 1/2 hours of spin class/ boot camp/ personal training session.

i was feeling gross, but thin.

personal trainers have a way of making you feel hot.

(that and not eating for three days.)

anyway...

i came upon this hot dad and his three preschool children.  

i hear the little girl say 

"oohhhhh daddy, look how pretty that lady is!"

now, i don't think for a second that she means me.

and then as i pass her, she says

"and look how SHORT her shorts are!"

thank you running shorts.

thank you.
