So, mostly due to work/personal stress, I didn't end up signing up for the meet in April. Which is probably a good thing, because I totally suck at swimming.

I was late today because I tried really hard to oversleep. I turned off my main alarm, but my backup woke me up. Somehow I left the house five minutes late, then got behind this person for the first four miles of the drive that could not drive the speed limit (or even close, a couple times). All signs were pointing to me going home and going back to bed.

But I went swimming. And it sucked. About halfway through our first set a new person came to our lane, which put us at five swimmers. And all four of them were fast enough that I was getting my ass run over. I had to keep stopping to get out of their way, so after one of those 150 frees up there, I got out of the pool. I contemplated leaving, but decided to go swim in one of the lap lanes in the diving well.

All those sets up there had intervals, but I couldn't make them, so I gave up. Also, I totally screwed up the pattern at the end because switched lanes twice because I thought some lady needed my lane. Arg.

Today I hated swimming. I'm supposed to go at lunch and there is no swimming next week (because of spring break) so I should go. Plus I haven't seen Chris since before I left for New York. But I'm really, really not feeling it. At all.
