May the 4th.

So this will be my 100th post. I felt that it would be appropriate to post on a very special day. that's why I waited so long.... actually I just haven't posted because I'm very lazy. However all of those little minor details aside, I have a very important day today. Not ONLY is it the fantastic day of May the 4th, but it is also the grand day that I get to swim the mile. Why? Because my coach decided that that would be a great idea. I have considered the following theories.

• She hates me. 
• She has an odd way of expressing her deep love for me. 
• She thought it would be a once in a life time experience to meet my dead ancestors. (as the result of swimming the mile is almost certain death)
• She wishes that I was a distance swimmer (because her favorite distance swimmer has decided to graduate) and often has these delusions that I love distance swimming.... I do not.
• She hasn't had a good laugh in a while, and saw this grand opportunity.
• I did something wrong, and she is using me as an example to all of those who try to rebel against her dictatorship.
• She's mad that we all didn't have to give birth recently like her, and is trying to inflict equivalent pain and agony. 
• She is mad that my friends and I came up with an amazing baby name, and she didn't come up with it first. 
• And finally, the theory that by making me swim the mile, she will somehow put me into a deep hypnosis and then kidnap me for the next 20 years so I will be able to preform her bidding as she slowly takes over the world with her secret army of pirate frogs with plastic swords that glow in the dark. 

The simple truth is I'm not really sure why she put me in the mile. All I know is that I may or may not be alive tomorrow. But you see I have eaten my weight in carbohydrates. This should be a breeze right? just like eating cake.
Fruit cake.
complete with concrete and large chunks of lead. :)
May the force be with me, and you also.. :)
