Its called SHARING!

Ok.. so lets face it.. some people dont know how to share and today was no exception. Lets just say that I was a little p.o-ed at the pool this evening. I had had a long day, did spin in the morning then work then the big boss men came at 5pm right when i was leaving! Of course. So I had to drive in the dark and the rain. YEAH MY FAV...NOT! O well you win some you loose some. Ok so on to the whole not sharing and stuff.... I got to the pool late due to the boss men coming and when I got there finally I went to go talk to this gal who also just got there like 2 seconds before me. She hopped in the pool.. I was putting on my cap, etc and when she got to my side I asked if we could share a lane. She said NO! I was like well... normally people circle swim or just split the lane. She said no that she would hit me or the lane line or the wall. I said I didnt care if she hit me. She still said no so then Alex was like just come share a lane with me and Adam. So here we go with 3 people in a lane and one in the other... so frustrating. We made it work but Alex put her 2 cents in and also explained pool "rules". So anyways she left after another lady asked to share the lane with her and not but 10 minutes later here comes the GM and a trainer to talk to us... o great! Like I didnt beat anyone up! I was not rude, I was super super super nice and when she said no 3 times I just gave up. I never went against her word by jumping in her lane like she told the trainer that i did! Geeze louise! I called my mom and told her about it and she isnt even a big swimmer and still was like what a horrible person for not sharing. Anyways, maybe just maybe that next time she will actually share a lane.
I guess the thing that got me the most was that she said that one of the trainers taught her how to swim recently but never gave her any pool rules to live by. Its almost like going to drivers ed and them just throwing you in a car and not teaching you to yeild or stop on red, etc.
Anyways.... tomorrow its is up in the air if Im going to run my 20 miles or not... a lot is determining that... mostly the weather.
