The Swimming Pool

So, the temps are reaching all time highs here in Central Texas. I don't do well with too much heat, so I broke down and purchased a summer pool pass to our community pool. Well worth the $60 for the family for the summer! It will be paid for after 6 visits! One down and five to go!

Today, I had it all planned out. The pool opens at noon, but there are not very many chairs, so we got there a few minutes before noon to claim our spot. The gate opened a few minutes before noon, so we were 2nd in the pool! Awesome! I love it when things work out. So we brought our lunch in and our cooler, chilling in our perfect spot. I've got my magazines, my drink, my sunglasses! Perfect! Then after about an hour, the crowd starts to roll in. Fools! Waiting until after an hour after the pool opens. Because by then, yeah, no more chairs!

I would like to take the time to talk about a few things that I noticed. Now, let me preface, I am not here to criticize anyone based on anything, just things that I noticed! I am not a super model (well, in my head I am!), but I was in my tankini and swim skirt. I do know my limitations! So, there are many different types of people and when the temps are over 104*, they come out of the woodwork to stay cool! I don't blame them!

Some rules that I think people should follow:
1. Anorexic women should not wear a biniki. It just emphasizes the yuckiness!
2. Thank you to the very "healthy" man who kept his wife-beater t-shirt on! Thank you!
3. Really hairy, gross, slimy, stalker like old men should wear more clothes to the pool.
4. What swimsuit fashion designer thought that white fabric was a good thing? It isn't flattering.
5. Tankinis were created for a reason! Women.......you should know when to wear them!
6. If you look pregnant, but aren't, refer to rule #5!
7. If you are skinny and choose to wear a loin cloth, please make sure it covers up your crack!
8. Large busty women should be careful what type of bathing suit they buy. Kind of like covering up your crack, just in a different area!

Yeah, we had a good time at the pool! Can't wait to go back!
