One of the perks of working at a university is the gym access.  Not that I use it that often, but it’s nice to know it’s there.  Well, I had an insane need to swim today, so I took full advantage of the relative studentlessness of campus and dove in.  It was glorious.  I always find it funny that most people who grew up swimming competitively will swim in a circle instead of straight down the middle when they have the lane to themselves.  We were taught to share from a very young age.   I can share a lane, but I still like to have a lane to myself.  Who doesn’t?  Which is why I have decided that when I come into my fortune left to me by some unknown and fabulously wealthy relative, I am getting my own lane like the one above.
