it's that time of year again...

the time of year when i REALLY miss swimming. i miss it so much it my heart seriously aches. i read about my girls in the paper, the ones i used to swim with. i had so much fun on the team and ... i don't know. i would do anything to have it back. i remember the night i cried myself to sleep when all my swimming dreams were over. i read that amy, who i grew up with at and we swam together for many years, was edc senior athlete. i'm so proud of her, she had to give up so much with an injury this year and is now giving up swimming before she makes her journey to college.

i wish there was a team here in btown. i miss being able to physically work towards something everyday. to be in the pool with friends and to groan over those hard workouts and wonder if you will ever live to see the end of them. and then at the end you realize that it's all worth it and how much harder you want to work. i miss the laughter and the suits, caps, goggles, getting new apparel, new times, breaking records, relay teams (firecracker relay, junior year!), team captain, tshirts, pasta parties, tshirt decorating parties, cheers, kicking sets, flippers, secret sisters...everything. it was all worth it...everything. what i would give to have that back. is there a masters team anywhere??? i need a bigger city.

i'm busy this week so i probably won't post till thursday...my day off...i'm sleepin in!!! yeah!!
