we swam with cormorants popping up and diving down around us. it was fun to think of birds swimming underneath us with their long wings. there was a couple of couples i swam toward while mister turned for shore and i got up close saying hi hi and then since i wasn't a bird they flew just over my head and i could see their muscles stretching under their feathers so clearly and mister turned again to look for me and i said thanks for looking out for me mister and he's like course, what did you spect?, and we swam back happy to the inclined platform. the sky you see was utterly clear and heavenly blue. no haters and no black phantom death helicopters. me and mister and the cormorants and gulls and fishes were the only ones swimming and we were blessed.
