that's rather interesting. i want to start going swimming again just because when i was going a few times a week last year (late, when the wee pool was quiet) it was hypnotically relaxing: tried to do 50 lengths each time, but to not lose count i was kind of chanting the number of the length i was on with each stroke, and i found if my mind wandered i would entirely forget how many i had done: and being retentive as fuck about such things that Could Not Be Allowed To Happen. i think the not-thinking-about-anything part was as relaxing as the actual exercise part.

me too! or at least, me too in the sense that i also have about a million things in my head compared to the ones i actually say. and hellison will witness that i talk almost as much as she does. almost. ;) i haven't yet composed lj posts in my head [er. much.], but i do sometimes 'hear' fictional charcters talking to each other after spending excess amounts of time reading fic. not that they ever say anything sensible, damn them.
