How To Get By In A Hostile World, Thursday
Atton had gotten to the gym about an hour early: you could tell, because he'd built a small fortress out of his baggage, with all the words strategically pointing in a direction where they weren't visible. "So we all have baggage," he said, "Obviously. Sometimes baggage gets in the way. Ignore your baggage. That's easiest."
And totally healthy!
"We could do some soul-searching here about how to keep our metaphorical baggage from getting in the way of our life's ambitions, and y'know, if you want to grab one of those mattressy things over there and do that, be my guest."
He eyed the class dryly. "Or you can use everything in the gym to beat the shit out of your actual baggage. Or something. I promise I'm not going to read anything, and neither should you."
That was it, apparently.
