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?

You know you are in a swim family, when, during a blizzard, your 10-year-old daughter asks, "If they cancel school tomorrow, can we go to the pool and practice?"
You know you are a swim parent, when, even though some of the roads are drifted half shut, you take her.
(You know you are a triathlete, when, even though you dress out and swim with your daughter, you don't put in a hard effort because it's Wednesday and Wednesday is bike day.)
