Now I know what he really thinks of me

LBTEPA: I don't know if I'll do the Brighton swim this year.
Spousal Unit: Why not?
LBTEPA: I've hardly done any swimming this winter what with the marathon and uni and all, and it's only five weeks away.......
SU: what, you can't swim 4km?

that's just SST--spousal smack talk.

take the boy down! leave bruises.

I don't even know what to think of that. Does he not understand the need to train for such an endeavor or does he truly think you have swimming super powers?

LBTEPA said...

he thinks I have superpowers in all endurance sports!

The person who recently ran a marathon can't swim a measly 4k? Surely not? Go for it!

I'd rather run a marathon, than swim 4km. It would take less time.

and I'd have less chance of drowning.

If it's that easy, SU can show how it's done.

I actually really like this (or at least the way I portray the exchange in my head - which of course is my own interpretation). I really like it because it comes loud and clear that he BELIEVES in you.

YES! Make him hurt so good :-)

I'll give you another reason. The water there is cold and full of critters (jellyfish and stingrays). But then, you probably already knew that ...
