I haven't had many long term tooth problems yet. I guess that comes with being fairly young.

Today I found out that I need to have my wisdom teeth removed.  :(
However, the dentist seems to think they are responsible for my jaw cracking problems. It would be very nice if those problems go away, but I am pretty nervous.

Even though IWTB lives up there, you should be able to avoid him and have a good time anyway. Where is your cruise going? Great Lakes? Atlantic? Pacific?
  Have a good time.

So I got an e-mail today. Some American guy saw my linkedIn profile and was like "Hey, we have this super high profile job that pays $100k a year and we want you to do it. You'll be in charge of pretty much everything in the UK.".

My initial thoughts were ...
  • That's a lot of money
  • Clearly you don't know what you are doing. Someone will fire you after I have been hired.
  • This must be a scam
  • He's going to shit bricks once he finds out he has hired a flat earther.
  • Could I get away with this?

I have a telephone interview next week. I checked the guy's name and details. Seems legit. He's on the company website and used his profile to contact me and has a bonifidey company e-mail address to boot - which I used to get a job spec off him. I'm confident that he is going to realise I'm a cretin, but as you have all seen, my voice doesn't match my personality. I actually sound like a nice friendly guy.

I will update you all as to how he found me out in due course, but its a fun way to spend 20 mins. And of course every so often someone somewhere commits a gross act of incompetence. Lets hope I'm that act. I suspect the other candidates can't all be monkeys, though.  :(

In other news, I have to be up at 4am to do that River Race tomorrow morning.

Did my first ever race this morning. 180 people. It was full of swim teams and triathletes from all over the country.  :(

Anyway I finished a fairly respectable 27th. Not bad for a bloke who taught himself to swim using youtube. I started in the second wave and that was annoying because I kept passing people from the first wave and it meant I had to keep looking up all the time so it slowed me down. Also I missed the finish and had to swim back for it. That's experience I suppose.

Time wise I swam 2.8k (probably closer to 3k with all the meandering) in 37:18.

I forgot my underpants. I'm typing this commando. I must address that at once.

3K in 37 minutes is very good!
takes me about 30 min just to swim a mile.

well done!

Thanks. I practice quite a bit. I swam round the lake twice today and went on Sunday too. And it probably was 3km by the time I was done. My friend managed just over 3km because you end up meandering all over the river (he had a gps watch on).

In long distance races, do you alternate strokes? I know for a fact I couldn't freestyle for 3 km without my entire shoulder exploding.

Front crawl all the way. I have pretty strong shoulders. Its actually slightly harder in a wetsuit because the neoprene is stretching against you creating even more shoulder work.

I did the interview today. I think I did OK. Especially with regard to answering questions. I just worry that I might have sounded a bit nervous. I was kind of tripping over my own words a bit and finishing some sentences a little abruptly. I'm hoping its in my head, but its done now. Will have to wait and see.
