Uhg, that's serious complications.

Sara, if you can't do flip turns, what do you do when you do your many laps? Just turn around?

I flip over to my backside when I'm about to hit wall on the last stroke and tuck my feet under and back ( I do crawl.) It's like an upwards flipturn.

bon, my goggles were fogless for about 3 months. And now they aren't. What's this about spit? I have a spare pair, but won't break them out until these actually leak. I'm swimming an hour plus, daily. Pool may be 80, but I am still probably sweating, and now I get about 10 laps in before everything is just a blurry mess.

Spit in your goggles and rub it around. It's pretty good at preventing the fogging.

Spit defogs goggles. The chemical defogger is just fake spit.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Finally got Kelly to send me the tattoo pictures.. Way back when, I had asked Buffistas for ideas regarding new directions, rebirth... and thanks to the comments I received, this tattoo was created.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

When I entered the room they shouted out at me: "Azarath, Metreon, Zinthos!" Matilda was wearing a cape.

AWESOME! Did it make you float, or burst into flame? Or burst into song?

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

My mom is a poor swimmer. I wouldn't get out of the water. My dream is to have one of those pools where you swim against a current. or a lap pool . i just don't get to swim here. And nope, I can't see in the water, but it doesn't bug. me. I love the prescription mask I used in Hawaii
