Leisure Time

If you didn't know better, you'd think that everyone at MIT Master's was on vacation this week. As I leisurely strolled onto deck at 6:20 only Sarah was lined up and ready to jump in. So I did what any respectable teammate would do: I tried to stall her from getting in the pool by trying to engage her in discourse about the weather, our health, and general wonderment about how empty the pool was. Unsuccessful, I continued my quest of procrastination by chatting up with my friend Chris, who also seemed antsy to get in the pool (come on people! Master's is for socializing)! Undeterred, I sat at the edge watching Bill write the workout and staring at an empty lane. As I got up the nerve to jump in, out sauntered E2, so of course I felt obliged to say hello. But then I got in. And she continued to talk with Bill for 10 minutes on deck. As each 100 went by I felt better about my own dilly-dallying as E2 delayed her own swim. But instead of giving out a slacker award, we get a champion award because Bill mixed up the sheets and gave us Lane 1's times for the main set. We made it but I wondered why they got so much rest and we were working our butts off.
