Only one who can help me
Last night was one of those nights.
Like when I was young, I always thought that Obi wan kenobi was "Only one who can help me." That's what I heard when Princess Leia said it, and it stuck for the rest of the movie, even though it didn't make sense when Luke said it or Han Solo.
We were talking about dad's choking experiences yesterday, including the one involving black licorice pigs. He managed to pull over his car, lean on the door, and well, he's alive today. As we were being vocally amazed, my dad said "and all with a black hat, too."
Real phrase: "and all without blacking out too."
Last night I overheard exerpts of a conversation between Mom and Dad. My interest perked when I heard the daunting phrase "hopeless destruction." Turns out, wasn't that exciting.
Real phrase: "owner's instruction" (referring to either the wood chipper or the tiller. I don't remember.)
And there's the words I always read but never say. The stupid word I couldn't pronounce today was neopolitan ice cream. I kept saying "neo-politician."
This is my life everyday.

blogworthy?
Despite the fact I was wearing a "Utah Swimming" shirt, my tie-dye jacket must've thrown people off at the store. That, and the fact I was buying a blow-dryer and bobby-pins. Those products equal prom, right? Of course right!
I was wished good luck in doing my hair for the prom tonight.

Conference
Well, I'm sitting in the Pheonix airport, all done with conference. I swam three events, the 50, 100, and 200 free. I also participated in four relays.
A quick summary of my best times from the meet:
50 free: previous lifetime best was 23.52. This meet went a 23.15 (fifth)
100 free: previous lifetime best was 50.77. This meet went a 49.76 (first)
200 free: previous lifetime best was a 1:53.--. This meet went a 1:49.13 (second)
Overall, I'd say I did pretty good! And my coach definitely knows what he's doing.
