I think this is where you kick it back to the center and your insurance. Uhg.

Tonight I had to share a lane with 3 people, which means circle swim, which I kinda hate. And since I was the fastest, it was kinda annoying, having to pass or slow down when someone didn't judge right and went ahead of me when I was on their heels. What redeemed it was one of the women telling me I'd just given her the workout of her life, trying to keep up/out of the way and that she'd share a lane with me any day, I was a really courteous lane-sharer. So even if I was mentally bitching....

I have to say, I've never introduced myself or talked to so many people in the nude in my whole life as I have in the past 18 months. Ah, locker rooms. And the apparent demise of my modesty. I have now become my father, because I have uttered "OH! I didn't recognize you with your clothes....on..." in a public not-Y place to a fellow swimmer.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Hey, Good Stuff submitters -- I'm going to be out of town and probably offline for the long weekend, so as many things as you can submit tomorrow would be awesome, so I can fill up the queue.

Thanks!!

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I had an avocado, have the oatmeal out for the morning, used flax seed oil and fat free raspberry dressing on my salad, and I guess I will exercise tomorrow. I hope these changes are a two-fer and I lose the 10 lbs I want as I lower the LDL.

weight loss, get in shape people, I posted on the LJ that sail linked to. It's called Check_in_time (which has now earwormed me with "step in time"). [link]

My brother's wedding coming up this summer gives me even more incentive for the weight loss. Depending on if they have the ceremony in July or August, I should be down anywhere between 160-180 pounds in all by then.

Oh, are people using check_in_time again? Cool!

Is there a dreamwidth crossposty version?

I don't know how to do that! Well, actually, I'm such a bad swimmer I can't really share lanes at all. I started swimming in the lake! We don't have lanes, we have currents! I have got to learn, though, but I have to do it during open swims when there isn't anyone in the (two) lanes, because when I've gone to lap swim, all the lanes are full, and there's nowhere I can piddle around until one opens up.

I need to check my schedule when I get home. The pool should be open then.

It was set up back in 2007, so, no.
