Continuum is one of 3 words containing "uu" that are commonly used in English,15 altogether, 16 if "Duusu" is included. One of my favorite high school band pieces was called "Continuum for Winds," which I never hear on KWAX, although "Pictures at an Exhibition" seems to be a daily requirement.
I went to the gym room later today than I ever have: 3 p.m. Had a not-so-great attitude, but decided to go anyway. Did a 35 minute work-out, as the program ("Manual" which I did not select) had a five minute cool-down attached to it. It seemed to take forever, even as the "percent done" updates flashed on the screen every 5 to 10 minutes.
When I still had about 6 minutes left, a guy came into the room and looked at the clock. It took me a moment to realize that he was staff. After a brief hello he proceed to wipe down the treadmills and the other machines. The machine and time itself, of course, ran slower as I wished to hurry up and get out of his way. The "Jimmy Neutron" DVD was at the point of *SPOILERS!* the chicken dance when the finished screen finally appeared: 5.98 miles, 116 heart rate, 140 calories, rotations per minute--who cares?
I got it done, and that's what matters.
