TAN 202: A bunch of rotTAN apples (Page 75)

Reading that made me cold... but this is an indoor pool, right?

1500m in 55 minutes is SLOW, but if you're working on technique, it sounds about right...

Yesterday it was a sunny and warm 85* when I played beach volleyball during lunch, Wednesday was around 80* when I went swimming at my gym's outdoor pool. Yes, I am in the northern hemisphere and it's supposed to bewinter... as nice as the weather is I wish it was cold and wet. If we don't get any rain a couple of the lakes may be too low to host triathlons later this year

Headed to LA for the weekend, where it'll be warmer there than in Tucson. Weird! 

I hope you guys get the rain you need!

Yeah, it's all technique.  We haven't just "swam" at all yet other than warm up AND it's an indoor pool that's pretty warm.  I was just talking about that with a coworker.  The water is cool, but you can jump in without yelling "mutha effa!" in you head.  Not bath water, but low 80's.

I estimated it at 1500 meters, but don't keep track.  It's a lot of 25 yards, talk, 25, talk, down and back, talk, etc... 

I'm sort of excited though.  I might have a decent swimmer somewhere deep inside.  I was already pretty good as far as triathletes go being basically self taught.  Already they are working some bad habits out and I'm see improvement.  I swam a 100 under 1:20 and I'm not even in shape.  I wasn't much faster than that when I was in my best swimming shape before some of my races.

Dang, dude. sub-1:20 out of shape is pretty good!

Is it time to go home yet?

I have yet another FB friend who is going baby nuts.  All baby pics, all the time.  They expanded to video now.  Video of them sleeping, crawling, standing (with help).

I seriously think I hate babies now...  Well, not babies - baby mommas.  They don't CHOSE to be exploited...

i block those people.  that stuff IS annoying.  honestly, ANYONE that posts of FB too often is annoying.

I hide those people from my news feed. Or unfriend them.

I don't want to see your borderline trashy pregnancy photos, 800 pictures of your child, or 800 pictures of any single subject for that matter.

I get people asking me to post more of my art work as I get it done on my FB page that is dedicated to the art stuff which is currently jewelry stuff, but my personal one, I hardly ever post to.  I use it for groups that I am a part of.

or know every thought you have every second of the day.  i promise it is NOT that interesting.

I post pictures of my kids on FB alot, so I apologize to the couple of you that are freinds on FB.

Edited to add that I take that statement back, I do not apologize for posting pictures of my kids on FB.

I just checked.  NO, you don't.  You post a lot of different stuff AND the kids are old enough that they actually do something....

The ones I'm talking about are the 20 pics in a row of baby on a blanket, baby in a winter stocking hat, baby with G-ma, baby with G-pa, baby sleeping, baby crying, baby in crib, baby standing (being held up) and NOTHING else.

NOW, it's time to go home, right?  Thank the stars I came in an hour early - now I can go home an hour early...

BUT, something to look forward to - bringing in lunch from Capriatti's.  Vegas' favorite sub place.  They have on called the "Bobby" that is thanksgiving on a bun.  Stuffing, pulled turkey, cranberry sauce.  Carb heavy but SOOOOOO good.

Anyone here anymore.......Bueller.........Bueller

I'm here!!

And my bike seat is no longer too high.

Everybody off today?

I'm here.  I FELT like taking a day off though...

I felt like taking the day off as well, yet here I am...

Ditto. I'm here, physically...

...but mentally, maybe not!

I'm here. Back at work after a nice little break.

Aww now, you can't start being all sensitive-like in TAN..!

The posts I dislike the most on FB are the passive-aggressive, or veiled husband/family shaming posts. Recent examples - this first one REALLY got under my skin.

Who needs a mommy or wife when they have their screens?

Wishing husband didn't have to travel all the time. Playing single mom again this week.

Can't sleep AGAIN because of husband's insanely loud snoring.

Trying to keep it together, here. Roughest week I can remember.
