No medal... oh well. Summer Dragons was ranked the 6th best team in the community division, or the 10th best including the university teams. Waterloo was such a mickey mouse festival... one of the lanes consistently underperformed in just about every single heat, and was at a significant time disadvantage. Luckily, we had the deep outside lane in our time trials, and again in the semifinals, which were eventually cancelled due to thunderstorm. I hear it's how the engineers beat UC.
Anyway, there is love in SDEH... it's there, hidden amongst the old summer dragon stalwarts - kay, becca, Nelson; and some of the more recent ones - Mike, Hilary, Jeff. Wendy doesn't love... she didn't come to the potluck dinner. You missed a good one wendy. I might be coaching next year with Becca again, and I asked Cam and Steph and Simon to join, and every one of you out there reading this post can consider it an invitation too.
Re: last post. Only you might know who you are, but with that spotty memory of yours, you probably wouldn't remember anyway. Now deliver my book, dammit.

Only you.
Yes. Only you could notice it, and only you would ask if I wanted to go out and celebrate.
In other news, white water rafting was a hoot. I don't think I've had that much fun on water since inner tubing at the Little cottage. Admittedly, inner-tubing was more exciting because of the speed, but rafting was exciting in a different way. It was more the power-of-nature-to-smash-you-on-a-rock kind of exciting. Trail riding was power-of-nature-to-smash-your-balls exciting. Cam says galloping is easier, but I figure I need to clock some more time on a saddle before trying a gallop.
There's so much love on SDEH (/Sarcasm). I think people are just too busy living their lives to put much time into community dragonboat. At this point, being out of school and all, I feel it's better to form a team of close local friends to train for a season... but where am I going to find 25 local friends who hang out together all the time? This first half-year has been full of dissapointment in every area of my life. Maybe if I get a medal tomorrow, I'll feel better.
