That Monday I went to the gym that I, that I go to. So I've been there for like a week because I was out of town and all the parking spots were taken and I go in there and I'm, I'm at the gym at five something, right? Yeah. Not expect a lot of traffic? No, most people start coming into the gym like around seven, I'm gone. So for there to be anybody there is rare but for it to be packed and packed with people that I'd never seen before and I was kind of like what is going on? Like is there an event? Like am I missing something? Is there an event or something? And then I realized coming up, what is it? The new year? Yeah the, what do you call them, the part time warriors. Like so they'll, they'll be at the gym but by the middle of January they'll be gone. Yeah.
