staff meeting week...:P

yes, the lovely staff meeting. (did you catch the sarcasm?) but the day starts a little earlier than 4 PM...

we went to a different parish for church this morning. mom and dad were giving a Theology of the Body talk after Mass this morning, so we all just went. then we condemned my little sisters (kathryn and elizabeth) to the cry room with someone to make sure they didn't do major demolition for the next forty-five minutes or so. we got home about 12:30...

and i left three hours later for staff meeting. WHY do they have to be on sundays? :P this one was actually only for swim instructors. we did the skippers classes today...and i am now hoping i can walk tomorrow. :P when my boss asked josh to demonstrate his teaching method for the whip kick, i volunteered...not realizing HOW he teaches. :P his thing is you put the kid flat on the wall, then have them bring their heels up to touch their rear, then do the rest of the whip kick. it wasn't an issue...until my heels stopped about six inches away and he tried to FORCE them the rest of the way. now, most people wouldn't have an issue with that...but my hamstrings are *EXTREMELY* tight (when i try to touch my toes, my hands stop about two feet above my ankles). he only managed to get them within an inch...but OUCH. :P actually, the whip kick is the most dangerous kick in swimming...and breaststroke is my best stroke...which means, basically, that the most dangerous stroke in competitive swimming is my favorite. hmmm...not sure what that says about me, exactly...;) :P
