An honest man

I found myself de facto hostess at a social event the other night, so I decided to make the best of it and started chatting with a guest I didn't know. He said he'd run into awful traffic on his way to the event from his gym.
Aha! Conversational gold! As something of an athlete myself, I felt on solid ground here.
"So was today an upper body day or a lower body day, or did you do cardio?" I asked.
He gave me a sheepish look.
"Actually, I sat in the parking lot and made phone calls," he confessed.
I liked him so much for his frankness that I'm afraid I neglected my small-talk and mingling duties and spent most of the evening talking to him.
