Hitchers and butterflies
Apr. 12th, 2008 02:47 amI like picking up hitchers. The stories are worth it - even if they're really mundane, they're always new to me, and today's (the Grand Guignol life of Donna Rascal and her Spongebob square pants) was particularly memorable. Is the life expectancy of the homeless in the UK really just 42? Scary. Still, she's deposited in Glastonbury and I got to be kept alert on the drive and assuage my carbon guilt, so we all win.
I was there for swim coaching. The session was pretty handy, pointed out where my stroke was wonky, offered some good stuff to help with that... and then finished on two lengths of butterfly. Never done it before, so length one was a frothing, gasping foambeater, but somewhere on length two I actually found a rhythm and some sort of a stroke. This lubber absolutely loves it when he gets something right in the water - it's a rare treat.
