OK, I did 5 laps. So sad. So weak. But so good for actually going. And w00t props to my peeps who believed I could do 15. I will keep on truckin to make that one come true. Yay!

Now, me and my spaghetti arms are going to go make pizza.

So I figure, in honor of talk like a pirate day, I'd go down to the rec center and walk the plank to the pool. So I have a predictive poll:

Poll swim swam swum

Winners will get 5 brownie points a piece, and future telling rights on "I plan on getting right on that" ideas everywhere. Will post results of this evenings adventures tomorrow.

So I FINALLY got back to swimming tonight...8 laps 2 minutes treading water. *sigh* its amazing how quickly you lose that strength and stamina if you don't keep up with it. But at least I'm back at it again.

Got on the scale too. Thus far I have lost a total of 74 lbs.

I have been reading and re-reading my journal entries over from the beginning of the year. The last time anything felt like it was remotely heading in the right direction was when I was still swimming, before most of the car/money problems got exacerbated. That was January 15th. It is now February 25.

No wonder I am so fucking depressed.

20 Laps today.

You may call me bad-ass now.

17 laps last night. Woo! I am a superstar!

Plus, no hurting today. Even better. Now I just need to get that whole finances back in the black thing handled and I will be Wonder Woman. With the gold bracelets and everything. And the nifty-go-lifty helmet hair. Then watch out world.

heh.
