well, i know, i know...i haven't been very faithful to this blog recently. aaanyway, funny things have been happening at swim practice, but...yeah. well, two days ago (i think that's when it was) ryan was getting ready for practice while kim and i were putting in the lane ropes. he yelled over to us that there was a crawfish in the water. not totally believing him, kim and i both kinna ran over to the shallow end and, sure enough, there was a crawfish swimming around in the pool with all the frogs. CRAZY stuff. i ran to get the net thing and ryan got it out of the water and then i threw it over the fence. that same day, at the end of the last practice, we were putting the cover thing back on the lane ropes and a HUGE frog jumped out of the cover and onto me. now, don't get me wrong, i'm not afraid of frogs or anything, but i nearly peed my suit i was so scared. luckily olivia and allison were still there (they are part of the "frog hunters club") and they came over and got the frog for us. hehe
we (the coaches) have been swimming the 11-up practices the past few days and it seems to make the kids swim more and work a little harder, probably because we're running over them and into them but...it's all good. the first day we swam with them, we did a 2000 (that's 80 laps...about a mile and a quarter) and then yesterday we swam another 2000 but i wanted to swim a mile and a half + 1 lap (100 laps) so kim and i swam a 2500 instead of a 2000. MAN it felt good. i came home from class and slept until my mom came into my room and told me that chris was on the phone...he'd called me 5 times on my cell phone but i was soooo asleep that i didn't get them. *sigh*
last night i went to ann's with chris and matt and we watched clueless. then we started watching mallrats but since it was 11:30 and i had to get up at 5:30, i went home.
i can't believe swim season's almost over! that's sooo sad and so hard to believe. i'm not gunna see these kids again, perhaps EVER...unless they ask me back again next year, which i doubt will happen. all we have left is the duel meet and the pentatholon this weekend, divisionals next weekend (if you wanna see me swim, there's a coach's relay at the end of that meet), and then invitationals the next weekend. THEN WE'RE FINISHED!!! but then i start working at the Y...i hope... i'm gunna miss coaching, though, cuz teaching lessons is SOOO much different. (speaking of which, i need to call someone about private lessons...)
ERIN MIGHT COME SEE ME SOMETIME SOON!!! :-D i miss her so much. hopefully she'll come soon, but if not, i'll understand....
well, i think i'm going to head up to the pool to get some exercise in for the day. i feel fat cuz i just ate LOTS of pizza (not on my diet). but...I GET TO BAKE TONIGHT!!! :-D
