Fear or Laziness?

I am struggling...I SHOULD have gotten up to swim today but I stayed in bed. It looks like the rain will prevent any swimming before the Tri on Sunday (the indoor pool is still closed), and it looks like the TRI may end up a DU because Ike is going to dump on us this weekend and the forcast shows Sunday as 70% chance of Tstorms. I don't know whether to be relieved or disappointed. I'm both. But all my focus has been on learning to swim...I was reading another article today about using crosstraining to make you faster by utilizing muscles that don't get a lot of attention and giving others more rest. I wonder how my JMbuttkicker workouts/swim focus will affect my speed on the bike and run?
