What's the funniest thing that has happened between you and your crush/boyfriend/girlfriend?
There's kind of an unspoken rule that at swim meets, you're not really allowed to have excess fun in the martialling area. You're allowed to talk to the people near you and occasionally cheer for people in the pool, but that's about it. Well, the one time, me and Michael were kind of fooling around, me poking him and whatnot (we can do this most of the time, since girls heats always go first, and he's in the age category ahead of me, in the last heat middle lane, and I'm usually ixszen the first heat, close to the middle), and Mikey found a part-full water bottle somewhere, and we started trying to get each other wet. Then we ended up almost getting the head marashall (who was rather cranky) wet, and then once the water bottle was empty, we started throwing the cap at each other, and it practically hit her too. Then after that we sat there like the perfect little angels we are(n't) until it practically killed us. We tend to get in trouble a lot. Most of the time it's Michael's fault.
No it isn't. He's the perfect little good child. I'm the devil child who's leading him to a life spent in jail. But, seriously, every so often, it IS his fault.
This is exactly the kind of daily question that would've been great when I liked Logan. We got in so much trouble together, did the craziest things, and had the most laughs. There was the time we tried to find Yugoslavia, the time I spent an entire lunch hour trying to kill him, the time we played our own two-person game of dodgeball in French class, the time we decided to organize a protest against Mrs. Hingley (one of the substitute teachers) helping Josh and Lexi on their math test, the time he thought 9-2 was 8, the time we got paired together for math class (because we're the class math geniuses) and he couldn't figure out my answer to the question worth a dang, the time we got William mad just by whispering "23" at him all math class (those last three were actually all the same class, that class was a gongshow), the time canoeing at camp when we failed at the t-rescue, the next day at camp when Logan gave us all poison ivy canoeing, and so many more things.
I think that officially wins the prize for longest daily question answer.
Didn't get to see Michael much today. Or talk to him much yesterday. We've been doing some pretty hardcore workouts since it's the week before Provincials, so we don't have time to talk, and then today the two of us were in the equipment room during setup and I dropped a diving block on my foot, so I had to go to the guard room for first aid, and then, after I decided to go back to swimming practice instead of the ER, we were in different lanes for the drill. We talked a little bit, and then I beat him when he was doing breaststroke and I was doing whipkick (with a toe we're still not sure isn't broken), and then I ordered him around during takedown. As usual, he didn't listen. Hopefully we'll get to spend more time with each other at Provincials. Because nobody is going to stop me from racing, even if I'm still incapable of diving on Saturday.
The sad thing is, he didn't even ask me if I was ok after I dropped the block on my toes.
