Two, actually. :P It took longer than usual because I was laughing the whole time at the guys who told us that girls don't change light bulbs, we "just sit around and whine about it." So, anyway, this is dedicated to you guys. You know who you are.
I was actually extremely happy to finally be ABLE to change the light bulbs. We haven't had any in the house for a long time, and we kept forgetting to buy some. (Or maybe someone managed to find a pack that I didn't find when I last looked and we still need to buy some. But whatever.)

Wait...y'all haven't had any light bulbs? How have you been seeing all these long months? :P j/k
I can't believe certain guys don't think we can change light bulbs...it's not that hard.
Well, the thing is, there was the whole split-lane thing, Allie. We had a bit of an issue one day at swim where the guys asked, "How many girls does it take to change a lightbulb?" and the girls replied, "none, because that's the man's job."
Allie: No, no... it's not that we CAN'T; it's that we'd just sit and whine INSTEAD. Which I find infinitely more insulting. :P
Jess: Nooo..... don't start the split lane explanation!! No one not from swim team EVER GETS THAT!!! Some people from swim team don't even get it. Maybe it's just the way I explain it.... *sigh* If someone asks what split-lane is now, you get to explain it! =D
That is infinitely more insulting.
Haha. Ok, since I can't refuse now, what's split-lane? :P
*groans and collapses on a table with the back of her hand pressed to her forehead in sickening dramaticism*
Go ahead Jess. :P
*clears throat and looks scholarly and intellectual*
Split-Lane (split' lane):
1. A single swim lane in which there are people which are split up evenly by the coach. The boys go down to one end and the girls stay at the other end, and each end takes turns swimming. I.E. The set: 4 100's butterfly. Instead of having an interval, the girls swim 1 100, and then the boys swim one 100, and continues like that till the set is completed by both parties.
2. No second definition
Split-Lane Conversation (for goodness sake, you know how to pronounce it):
1. A strange bit of information that is exchanged between both lanes as each takes their turn. I.E. The girls go down to the other end and say something like, "what's your favorite color?" to the boys during the girl's turn swimming, and durning the boy's turn, they go down to the girl's end and say "blue!"
However, usually each person of the party says a certain part. I.E.:
Kara: "I don't like Jeff the magical girraffe"
Jessica: "That's a stupid idea"
Elizabeth: "Can't you guys think up anything better to do?"
THEN:
Matt: "Jeff the magical girraffe knows where you live."
Sean: "He's coming to get you."
Nathan: "watch out."
