An update from the pool

I hit the pool again last night, but didn't have time/self-assurance for aquafit. Instead, a half-hour swim suited better.

From a distance, the aquafit class seemed different. I couldn't put my finger on what had changed. Same line of elderly women, same unitard-encrusted instructor, same low, underwater kicks.

And then it hit me, the instructor must have received a new collection of orchestral music for Christmas. Specifically, a Dorsey Brothers Orchestra CD featuring the hits of the 40s and 50s. The class liked one track in particular, so the instructor just left it on a repeat loop once the warm-up was done.

As I swam my laps, I concluded a few things:
1. I never need to hear "Tea for Two" set to a cha-cha rhythm ever again
2. Pregnancy makes me remarkably buoyant. Could be my belly or perhaps the giant pontoons strapped to my chest
3. I'm burning my maternity swimsuit as soon as possible
