You know you are a swimmer when ...

Just thought I would start a thread which didn't have deep philosophical overtones so that we all can have fun with the new forum software. Based upon personal experience, I will start a list of “You know you are a swimmer when …” with the following: You know you are a swimmer when you leave work in the rain and you can smell the chlorine coming off of your hair. Anyone care to add to the list?

    your wife asks you at the supper table, "do you mean to be wearing your swimming goggles?" And hey Leo, looking at your moniker what I see and hear, even through the ringing in my ears, is EEElete. How long has it been since the discussion was about elite swimmers? 'Specially since in some parts of the world, like the vicinity of Romania, the letter j, at least in its capital form, seems to be a substitute for the letter i, and is pronounced EEE. Please forgive me.

    hey, everybody I messed up my previous post twice, first by introducing the comparative form of swimmer (swimmier, for cryin' out loud),and second, by omitting 'around your neck'. So, If ya'll'l let me...when your wife asks at the supper table, "how's come you're wearing your swimming goggles around your neck?"
