Just keep swimming...

So today, I found my exercise...  I'm going swimming.  My friend Norma whom I sing with on my church worship team just turned 50 and she's training for a triathalon, TALK about inspirational.  So tonight, we're planning on going together, not to train for a triathalon, just swimming :)  I don't know how long we'll be there, or how many passes I'll do but... I always liked swimming when we used to have a pool.  Just not the whole "bathing suit" thing...  So... I'm facing a fear tonight as well as getting some exercise.  Actually I should leave now so I will blog about if after as well.

So apparently I didn't post my thing 'cause I ran out of here in a rush and now I'm back from swimming :).  Swimming was fun, however there were two douche bags in my lane with me who kept running into me.  Like, pay attention to where you're going or move to a faster lane!  Anyway, it was relaxing when they left.  I was super uncomfortable when I got there 'cause there were loads of "swimmers" so... that sucked.  I did it though, and I'm alive.  Next week we're going to a different pool though 'cause there were so many people. 

Oh, and women's change rooms, I have NEVER seen so many boobies in all my life.  I had forgotten that the women there have no shame whatsoever, trapsing around nude.  Whereas I'm uncomfortable strolling around in a bathing suit that shows too much skin.  Seriously people, have some decency.  If not for yourself, but for the people around you.  One woman was just having a conversation in the nude.  Really?  Anyway, I'm not like that, I tucked myself securely in a change room, stripped down uncomfortably and put on my bathing suit.  Anyway, it's definitely something I would do by myself later on, swimming that is, not galavanting around in the buff.  Once I find a place I personally like. 

There are two things I don't like about swimming though.  The smell... I hate the combination of clorine and urine.  DISGUSTING.  I've showered twice since I went swimming an hour ago and still I can smell it.  It must be STUCK to my nose hairs.  DELISH!  Second, however, this is a thing I don't like, but I do like at the same time.  I know, you're saying, how can you hate something and like something at the same time.  You'll get it when I say it though.  So just say it already right?  Ha ha!  Well, I hate that I can already feel that I'm going to be walking around like Frankenstein tomorrow because of working the muscles I don't normally use.  I hate this 'cause it's sore, but I love it because I'm working stuff out :)  Anyway, I'm gonna hit the hay.  Hopefully all this swimming took some of my energy and I'll be able to fall asleep.  nighty night!
