Going at 10!
I might have just made that up, but it sums up the feeling. I blame Jess and my new purusit...scuba! Jess is already scuba certified (it's a lifetime thing) and she had the keen idea that we should get me certified so that if we decide to go somewhere on, say, a honeymoon where we could do scuba, I could participate. It sounds like good fun times, at least in theory. I'm harboring some worries that I might get scared, but then again, maybe not. I'll just have to try it and see. My guess, I'll enjoy it. I've had some rough experiences with snorkeling in the past, but I totally and completely blame my snorkels for that. I've been trying to use (rent) snorkels with high-tech top filters to keep water from getting in and occasionally they also keep air from getting in. That's a disturbing feeling. I have, however, managed to get myself a good snorkel on occation, and once you have that, kicking around coral reefs is tremendous fun. I'm looking forward to the open dives.
Unfortunately, the classes have docked up my time completely after work. (Hence, 'going at 10'.) Between that, swimming, and TKD, all my time has been booked. It's friday, though, so I should be able to sleep in tomorrow and rest myself a bit.
So past that, really, not much to report. I'm a busy, busy man, but it's busy in all the sorts of things I do already, so not much is new.
Ta!
