I had a shitty run on Sunday morning. I had not slept in two nights...Friday night was a Halloween party, home to bed in good time but could not sleep. Tossed and turned all night. Crappy. (this whole H1N1 thing has really confused me...somebody that knows something, please tell me what to do!!) Saturday was a total no go for any activity as I was really, really tired and we had a busy day with all sorts of stuff going on.
My only option was to do my run before swimming on Sunday. Again, no sleep as some pinhead's car alarm went off and of course I woke up and could not get back to sleep. So the run Sunday was a very tired one and mostly walking. Was a gorgeous morning though!! Got to swimming and did not want to swim. Visited on the pool deck for a good half hour before actually getting into the water. Was really not into it.
Then, it happened. We were at the end of the pool and one of the guys in my lane DRANK OUT OF MY WATER BOTTLE!!! Oh.my.god. I was so grossed out. And he put his mouth right around the spout...not like he just took a shot from a few inches out, he SUCKED on it!! Obviously, he had mistaken my bottle for his, so I moved the bottle to the other side of the diving block, thinking he would get the hint that he had the WRONG BOTTLE!!
Nope. The next time we were at the wall, he took ANOTHER SWIG FROM MY BOTTLE!!
I say "That's my bottle!! Yours is over there!!" And he was embarrassed/feeling bad...but the damage had been done....I was totally grossed out and had nothing to drink for my swim.
Then, something else happened.
Jenna and Chuck may not want to read any further.
After swim practise, in the changing room, a couple of the other swimmers who have kids that swim with the local swim team were talking. Apparently, the new coach for their club has told the kids that the bathrooms in the new pool are too far away and he does not want any of his swimmers taking long breaks so if you have to pee, pee in the pool.
WTF??!!
These are KIDS!! And if they need a friggin break....there is a REASON they need a break!! Let them go use the friggin bathroom for chrissakes!! There are other people using that pool.
Again, totally grossed out.

That's a lot of grossness in one go. Coach needs to be talked to. Pool chemistry is hard enough as it is, and why teach kids that's acceptable? I swam in the pool in Estevan once. I've never had such a hard time doing the mind control. It was way too warm. And it was murky, with kind of a yellow green tint. And every kid for 50 miles around had just got out. Man, I tried not to think about it, and took a really good shower after.
Water bottles are cheap. In your position, once his goober was on the bottle, I'd have peed a bit in in, and put it back. Hoping he'd drink out of it again. Then I'd throw the bottle away, or donate it to someone you don't like. Or let him have it.
NICE.
The guy drinking from your bottle is hilarious...reminds me of that joke:
A guy on the plane is sitting beside you and starts eating your bag of chips. You can't believe his audacity and aggressively shove your hand in the bag and keep eating your chips.
Guy keeps eating chips, you keep eating chips. It's like a war -- until you get up to leave the plane and see your untouched bag of chips on the floor....LMAO!!!
OMG, my mouth was open from the minute you typed the guy in your lane drank from your water bottle until the very end. Think chin to the ground. Thank you for the laugh though, I need it. (And for the post on my blog...lol abou tlooking in the rear view mirror).
