Good thing I am not on the side of the house with the Asian frat who parties Wednesday-Sunday

Most interesting rowing practice this year:

• woke up, didn't feel great but went anyway.
• drove a separate car to pick up one novice (I hate wasting gas!). It was his first practice at the boathouse. I wonder if he'll stay in rowing very long after this...
• normal warm-up
• rowed port instead of starboard
• coxswain was still drunk/hungover from last night
• lightning and rain
• did starts just for fun and went back to the dock
• did some core exercises in the boathouse
• played "leap frog," in laps around the boathouse. Not the normal kind, it was the kind where you have to stand with your but in the air and when it's your turn, you have to really propel yourself over everyone, and if you mess up, you could hurt the person you are jumping over or fall into the sharp pointy stern of a boat or many other dangerous things.
• did jumpies in a line with arms over each others' shoulders
• watched people have chicken fights outside in the rain, girls on the guys' shoulders, but refused to participate and did more jumpies. luckily no one got injured, but there were some close calls
• watched people throw our assistant coach into the water for his birthday

And now I am back in my room, still not believing how coach could make us do those things. But at least the dock is fixed all pretty so that's one less thing to worry about. Football game tonight, hopefully it doesn't rain even more!
