Sunday brunch

Drove down to Monterey with family of 4 in the car. Argued with my brother the whole way because he was being especially annoying. Rented the 4-person bike and rode along the bay. Got in some great driving practice since the bike had a steering wheel and I learned that I "handle" the steering wheel the same way as my dad. Mother and brother went to Aquarium, me and father biked around for 2 hours until our thighs burned. Beautiful day, bright blue bay, what can I say? (Haha! I definitely won't try to rhyme again.) Ate too much and spent too much, both are great examples of mass consumerism in an overweight society. Whatever, I had fun. I missed having a free weekend. Back to school tomorrow...

You get a bunch of swimmers together and what do they talk about? Swimming. For hours. Fast people, slow people, fast teams, slow teams, good coaches, bad coaches, ugly practices, the occasional great practice, and TIMES. In a language full of numbers and abbreviations that you probably would not be able to understand if you were not on a swim team. And more often than not, swimmers will be way too impatient to explain to you how intense a practice was or how amazingly fast a person is. Just a heads up, please don't ask what a certain time means because it is very hard to explain.

I am excited for lunchtime tomorrow. But then again, trying desperately not to get my hopes up. Are you excited? How do you feel, Key Clubbers? :D

Happy Easter! I have been craving chocolate all day.
