When days are hot!
When days are cold!
In a swimming pool!
Ah yes, swimming. You know, there is nothing, nothing, quite like swimming. I was on vacation last week. And, due to massive amounts of idiots surrounding my life, I was forced to stay in Montréal. Woe is me! Actually, all my extra cash that I would have spent on vacation is going to go to fixing my car, which was RUINED by the other moron who parks his car in the underground garage in my building, who RAMMED into my car and caused about 4k$ of damage. YAY!! Insurance will cover most it, but still... I can smell my premiums increasing. This sucks. THIS SUCKS. Because of the STUPID no fault insurance in this STUPID province, MY premiums are going up, because some IDIOT rammed into my car, WHILE it was PARKED, IMMOBILE. So guy rams into my car in the middle of the night, doesn't have the decency to come to tell me (I guess he was in a hurry to get to the 4th floor, i live in the 3rd). YAY! OVER THE TOP HAPPY ABOUT THIS. Yes, that was sarcasm for the sarcastically challenged readers. Ergo, I stayed home all week.
My routine was pretty much eat-sleep-swim-sleep-eat-swim. I have been meaning to get back to the pool for a while now. But swimming is one of these things that takes an incredible amount of motivation to do, or more specifically get going. Well, I took weeks of mental preparation, increase in asthma meds to get the breathing under control again, a few weeks of running on the treadmill to have some degree of health (thanks to Ginette my personal trainer), and voilĂ ... I'm swimming again. In an effort to stay motivated, I have registered for the 1 000 000 meter challenge, only 995 900 meters to go!
So, vacation over. Back to work!
