I went swimming on Friday, and I felt awful from the first length, really almost unable to pull a stroke with my arms. I kept going, and somehow managed to do 50 lengths, feeling better at the end than I did at the start. Go figure. Sneaky, deceptive bastard disease.)<br /><br />As for that Vampire Weekend album. Better than the first one? I think it might be! (...he says, listening to "Life's a Riot with Spy vs Spy". Love a bit of the Bragg!)<br /><br />STswisslethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16708248700851998044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8031889641831063061.post-57764564227087714132014-01-17T15:44:03.176+00:002014-01-17T15:44:03.176+00:00PB = Personal Best (irony)

I was going to be creepy and ask on yesterday's blog; now I can be slightly less creepy and post here. <br /><br />Remember how I said I'd do my stairs shuffle in solidarity? Yeah...I didn't. So, I'm the ASSWIPE, COCK-KNOCKER, and FUCK-KNUCKLE. But, here I go -- really, truly -- to slowly walk up 6 flights. You inspired me to do it. So, thanks in advance. <br /><br />Happy to hear you feel better for having walked to work. That's fantastic. Here's hoping that exercise helps with the weakness you're noticing.
