Well, my day was pretty good if one were to so casually ignore my finger-breakage, directly followed by my near-drownage. Actually, it's more of a painful ignorance than a casual one, on account of my finger-breakage. Well... finger-sprainage, to be precise. ...And it was more along the lines of a 'hair-wettage' than a 'near-drownage'. But for the sake of drama, the finger's broken and I nearly drowned, dammit!!
This morning at rugby we were working on depth - there was some maaad depth going on, I might add. :-) Anyways, we did the 'barbecue' drill, which involved me catching this kamikaze rugby ball - I think Katrina threw it at me, but anyways, she threw it HARD and that was my little mishap. Yep! That's my battle scar! ...Then right after my practice I had (O, Joy!) a swim test! Now, an optimist would be about right in saying that I'm not a good swimmer. But I managed 2 lengths with clothes on, 4 lengths in my swimsuit and 5 minutes of treading water. (All the while repeating in my head the phrase "STAY AWAY FROM THE LIGHT!" heh... you know... as in the proverbial light at the end of the dark tunnel...) Luckily though, the skills I lack at swimming I believe I more than make up for in my canoeing ability. ...Which will come in handy on the trip I'm taking next week. :-) Yesterday I went canoeing with Andrew (who has yet to be nicknamed) and, for the while that I was in the stern, we were going pretty much where we wanted to go. However. When we switched positions - me in front, him in back - for some reason we progressively zig-zaged away from the group and closer to the waterfall... hmm. And when our instructor was explaining a canoe's tendency to tip when your center of balance is higher up, I promptly stood up and did the chicken dance! :-D ...To which Andrew promptly voiced his objections. Good times.

Anywhoo, my knuckle has now swollen to approximately twice the size as the other ones, and I must say, it hurts like a maaad mother! I'd best be going!

Tally ho!
