Today was my first Aquafit day at the Y. Besides the rude girl at the access desk, it was wonderful! I was pretty nervous, I must admit. The gym is not a place I'm familiar with. But I followed the old-er ladies and made my way to the pool. As soon as I got in, I regretted not having gone earlier to practice my freestyle. Since my duckies have gone to bigger and better ponds, I prefer solo swimming (I think). Although I must say, Aquafit is no joke. I got home and Sm joked that he didn’t think he could get used to my post-Aquafit energy. Tomorrow I may attempt the lanes.
I’ve been thinking a lot about friendships these days. Since I’m on the road to ‘letting go’ and being happy, I’ve been thinking about the friendships that don’t necessarily compliment those aspirations. The S-E Club, although created in jest, illuminated some valid points. I wonder about friendships that don’t serve our best interest… I wonder how often we should prune them. I’m pretty sure friends we’re friends with because we’ve been friends a long time aren’t necessarily worth investing in. Usually, one party has stopped investing anyway.
Some are easier to cut loose than others..
I probably shouldn’t think about it too much anyway. It’s just negative energy. Like my mom would say: “just be in the present.” Easier said than done… but I suppose it’s worth a shot.
In other news, I’ve now got two moves to woo the object of my affection. One from Sm includes giving him a weird look as I’m leaving his house, waiting for him to say “what?”, asking for a kiss, then kissing him (!!). The other from Vnss involves an ear, a tongue, and a second, for a subtler take. This way he can choose to ignore my advance, if it’s not to his liking…
Next time. One of these two options will be done. (Hopefully)..
For now, back to class. If only I were born 60 years ago... Then school would be as cool as this:
