Wow, that woman, or perhaps you, has a lot on her mind. I never think of that much while I'm swimming. LOL Or, any time, to be honest. I did enjoy the stream of consciousness though, a fun read.

Glad you had fun with it, Dan. I had fun writing it.

I like swimming but I don't do it very often. When I was at the fitness ranch last year, water aerobics was my preferred workout choice!

[alycewilson]

Started water aerobics while I was pregnant and I keep going: partly because I made friends in the class and partly because, with my various aches and pains, it's the easiest way to work out without any badness. :)

This is so beautiful - a lovely meditative quality and gorgeous voice here. I swam in high school and this took me back :)

[alycewilson]

Thank you! I've always been an amateur swimmer, but I love it.

Through this miracle, I can swim in proper position: head down, eyes open.

You're supposed to swim with eyes open? Really?

Good entry :)

[alycewilson]

Otherwise you run into the wall or something. :) I used to be able to open my eyes in all kinds of water, but my old eyes need protection now.

I hated that Star Trek: TNG episode! I seem to be in the minority on that, though.

I did not hate this post. :). I enjoyed being privy to your semi-meditative state.

[alycewilson]

LOL I found that episode amusing because of the idea that people who came from a different culture didn't know the references and couldn't communicate.

Glad you liked the post. I was trying for a meditative feeling.
