I know this is silly but sometimes when I'm swimming at night in a pool with just the underwater lights, I get a little freaked out...especially if the pool is uncrowded and quiet. I know that I've watched too many horror movies and read too many scary books, but does anyone else ever experience this feeling? I was just wondering if I'm alone in my paranoia or if there are others out there too.
...and by the way, yes, I do laugh at myself for this. :)

Oh no swimming at night is the best! Especially, if its just you, and your significant other, and if the deck area around the pool is more like a pretty terrace with landscape lighting, very little direct lighting on the pool (except for the underwater lights that shimmer with the water movement) and a deep dark blue sky with stars winking back at you, because they know what you are up to. Even swimming in the surf at night is great! The only thing you can really see is the foam on the waves and the lights from the beach cottages. You have to swim completely by feel, by the push and tug of the waves.
This reminds me, I need to suggest that our local Y have a couple of "swim under the stars" night this summer.
