The same day we all went "fishing" was the day my betting obsession reached a level i never thought it would;) It all started with Sam's bold statement, "i will give a hundred bucks to whoever belly flops in the pond." And i said i would. He tried to take it back (i sure don't blame him) but Shayna told him since he had said it he better have meant it, and he probably just wanted to see me jump in a freezing pond so he agreed. We came up with the agreement that i would jump in with all my clothes, and i would have to get fully submerged, head and everything. We debated for awhile if i would have to stay under for a certain amount of time but then decided not to do that. which i'm EXTREMLY thankful for because it was REALLY cold!!!!!! And so i was well on my way to $100, there was only one thing left............i actually had to jump in!!
I made my way over to the spot i had decided was deep enough but not too deep, looked into the cool clear water and started to "try" and prepare myself for the amount of cold i was going to feel but i didn't actually know what that felt like until i braced myself and then....................
Needless to say to anyone who has jumped in a pond in March it was REALLY cold!! so cold that when i got out i couldn't talk and i could barely breath!!
And that was how i won $100...................that i lost a few weeks later.
