Happy Friday!

Well, I was a little bummed when I went to the gym the a couple of days ago and realized that our pool is a different length than I thought it was...I thought it was 50m long, but it's not, so when I say that I swam 800 meters, I was totally wrong, which was a major letdown. I was so proud of myself, but whatever. Our pool is actually 25 yards long, so I had swam 600 yards, which converts to 548.64 meters. Oh well.

So I went to the gym yesterday and I swam either 700 or 750 yards...I ended up losing count, but that's at least a whole football field further than what I swam before. I'm still proud of myself, since it's 2 more laps than what I swam the day before, and I'm still adjusting to when to breathe to pace myself and so forth. But it's something that I'm definitely enjoying and I'll miss getting to go while I'm gone this week. I've found myself looking forward to going every day. That's so unusual for me.

Yesterday, I was feeling a little domestic and decided to make Travis a batch of snickerdoodle cookies since I'm leaving him for a week. What's sad (for me) is that I don't really care for snickerdoodles, so I don't have a home-baked goodie to snack on. But it works out well for Travis since he gets them all.

Moving on to something MUCH more exciting...I'm watching Saved By the Bell: Wedding in Las Vegas. You should be really, really jealous, since this is the world's best TV movie! Well, Lifetime's Fifteen and Pregnant may have it beat, but whatever. ;)

I wonder how much they had to pay Elizabeth Berkley to break away from her life-changing adventure of filming Showgirls. I mean, look at the success and fame that movie got her---I can't believe she was willing to be in a SBTB movie.

Just kidding. Elizabeth Berkley is probably living under a bridge somewhere hooked on caffeine pills reliving the glory days.

My horrifying news of the day is that my mom called me today and told me that of ALL of the things to find in the trunk of her car, she found...a rat. She has no idea how it got in there or how long it's been in there, but it was definitely traumatizing.

I'm not sure that I'll be able to post anything next week, so I'll be back eventually to...bore you with my mundane details of life.
