27 March 2009

So yesterday I went for a run out at Lake Overstreet, and when I was done I went to stretch a little bit over by the Forrest Meadows playground .  Usually, there are at least a few kids there with their attendant parents, but yesterday the place was deserted.  Which gave me the opportunity to play on the swings.  I love swings.  I will never be to old play on the swings.  The swings were always my favorite piece of playground equipment as a kid (actually, I was really fond of the merry-go-round as well).  Swinging is like flying, like a mini rollercoaster ride.  I still had my iPod on from runnng, so I listened to The Clash and pumped my legs to go as high as possible, and that, my friends, is an evening well spent.

I'm a swinger too (the playground equipment kind...not the partner swapping kind) and am thrilled to get to do it as much as I want as a parent. People assume I'm a kind nurturing parent when I'm swinging with B-girl. We all know the truth...
