Peed for two days straight

My awesome webmistress redesigned my site in prep for next week’s release of The Specialists: Model Spy. Check out my new site at www.shannongreenland.com

And I got very techno and put a slide show up on MySpace. Check it out at http://www.myspace.com/shannongreenland

Now here’s a funny story for you, and I’ve already told this to a few people. So if you are one of those few people, just ignore the fact you’ve already heard it. Anyway, here goes:

Earlier this week I went and swam laps. It was just me and this geriatric in the lane beside me. Geriatric is code for “old fart”. So anyway, I’m busy lapping it, breathing heavy, got the ole heart rate up, and here’s what happened.

Geriatric: “Hi.”
Me (having to stop my laps): “Hi.”
Geriatric: “Guess what?”
Me (do I know this lady?): “What?”
Geriatric: “I lost 19 pounds. Not twenty. Just 19.”
Me: “Ummm...that’s great.”
Geriatric: “And guess what else?”
Me: “What’s that?”
Geriatric: “I peed for two days straight.”
Me: “Ummm...that’s great?”
Geriatric: “Of course its great. How do you think I lost 19 pounds?”
Me: “Ummm...”

And then she waggles her fingers at me, “You may continue on now”. As if I was the one who had interrupted her. Ha! Gotta love old people.
