Strangely in-shape... [swimming]

Hi all.  Today was a good day, because in total, I had four pieces of my sister's birthday cake.
 
I also had a really good practice, which was strange, considering that today is the second day back after break.  I just felt really good, like I was flying (literally and figuratively, because my fly felt better than it has in a very long time).  I can't wait to finally do some pace 100s, because those are my absolute favorite.  I LOVE THE 100 FREE.  I love doing it all out, 200 pace, 500 pace, 1000 pace, 1650 pace, WHATEVER!  I could just swim 100 frees til I die.
 
I haven't done one since our Division 1 meet, but I haven't done a straight up 100 free set in practice, since before our high school state meet, which was in February!!
 
Suffice to say, I'm dying.
 
So today, I was praying to the dear Lord that we would do SOMETHING short and fast.  Or long and fast.  Just fast would do it.  I mean, I'm a distance swimmer, but I definitely appreciate sprinting, and I'm decent at it.
 
Luck would have it, that we did nothing that was supposed to be fast.  In my true form, I went fast anyways, because that's what I do, and I was literally itching to go.
 
Things turned out pretty well.
 
Anyone see my one of my previous posts when I talked about my irrational fear?  Well, things seem to be going fairly well so far.  I guess I'll just have to wait and see.
 
And of course, no post would be complete without some sort of X-Files related babble, so I will leave you with this.
 
My email to Frank is growing longer exponentially.  I'm going to have to cut it down.  Majorly.
 
It's difficult though!  There's so much I want to share with him, about how TXF have changed my life!  Once I finally get all my ideas down, I have no idea how I will edit it all together, and somehow make it any less than novel length.
 
One last piece of wonderful news- I might've just created a new Nerdifghter! :)
 
And there was much rejoicing throughout the kingdom!
