Co-worker #1 is lying face down on the conference table while I teach her the correct frog kick for the breast stroke. I'm quite amused.

Does any actual work ever get done there?

Hey, it beats sexual positions on the table, right?

Re Swimming lessons



Did she ASK you to teach her how to swim or did you just happen upon this?

Re Swimming lessons

Didn't we all agree months ago that we should all chip in and get Wormie a webcam for work?

Re Swimming lessons

She was standing in the middle of the room trying to do a frog kick. It just wasn't working. She was kicking her leg out in front of her, then back then together. It was sad. Finally, after amusing myself watching, I decided to show her the right way to do the kick. Apparantly this woman has never seen a frog swim and had no idea how to move her legs. She just wasn't getting it. I kept telling her to bend out - not forward, but she wasn't doing it. finally I told her to lie on the table and try it - silly me, I didn't actually think she would. So she spent a good 5-10 minutes practicing on the table. She got much better but I'm not sure she can pull it all together in the water.
In any case, it was rather amusing.

I'm all for pitching in on that web cam! The CWs are worth the price, no matter what!

I think I need to make a trip to Florida so that the Worm can improve my frog kick.

I am a rather good frog kick instructor, but you will have to lay on a table.

Re Swimming lessons

Maybe I'll book that table for November--I'm looking at flights to Fort Lauderdale now, to visit my mother Nov. 1-14. Still in the planning stage.

I'd really prefer to swim in water, LOL. We should save the table for drinking.

Cool, but Helen, you should NEVER drink and swim! Very dangerous!
