I just started an afterschool swimming program. Every other day, we do the moth stroke for at least a half an hour. I don't mind it much, except I wish we'd do it in a pool, not a swamp. Though I guess the vicious leeches are good motivation to swim fast! I've already lost 13 candygrams! Not sure how much that is in whatever weight unit you guys use.

Cindy Harrison asked me to go to the Sladie Thompkins dance with her. I haven't decided. She's alright, I guess. She's funny, and kind of cute. It's better than not being asked at all. I'd rather go with Serenity Jennings, but she's going out Mr. Bigshot roller derby star Declan Stephenson, so fat chance of that. He thinks he's so cool, but he's a huge jerk. I don't know what she sees in him.
