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?

I own two wearable speedos and a pair of jammers. Oh, and one tri suit.
That should be enough.
You know you are a swimmer when...
an attorney at the courthouse asks you where you practice and you say weeknights with a masters group at the Downtown Y. Oh did you mean law?
... you have more swimsuits then shoes.
... wish your family pets swim.
... look for a husband with big feet, because you hope that will make your kids good kickers.
... can tell a woman your *** looks great, and not get punched.
... can tell a man your fly looks great, and not raise an eyeborw.
That's too funny!
You know you're a swimmer when you suffer from withdrawl symptoms for not getting enough pool time or not being able to swim for two or three weeks.
I had my bathroom remodeled and I installed one of those Japanese soaking tubs (the extemely deep ones) so I could still get into the water even if I couldn't make it to the pool. ;)
Ok. I'll try again too. You know you are a swimmer when ... you spend ridiculous sums of money deep conditioning your long hair.
I guess I should cut it off like Ande suggests in his tips.
