Sharks are Cool

Why are you wearing booties to swim? Did you lose a bet?

See? They have sharks on them.

Sharks ar cool, right? Of course they are. They're so cool they're practically penguins.

*

Do you mean Burgess Meredith "Penguin" or Robin Lord Taylor? How do you know about them? Duh. We TV at my other house too. Honestly, I don't know why I hang around with your guys!

*

I don’t really care what you wear as long as I don’t have to go along.

While this might seem like an odd topic, I was very nervous about going swimming again after having developed so many allergies/sensitivities. I was concerned that even with shower sandals, if I were walking across a floor where personal care items were draining, they might splash onto my skin and cause a reaction.

My solution is to wear aqua socks while in the shower room and in the pool, only changing out of them once I reach my locker. If you happen to be one of lucky few with MCAS, I wanted to let you know that this might be a choice to help keep safe in a locker room or pool. (Usually this condition doesn’t surface until your 20s, so hopefully high school swim class will already be behind you.) Aqua socks are made of neoprene, so water doesn’t go through them. As a plus, they give extra traction on slippery floors.

And even though I am the only nerd wearing them, I totally rock these aqua socks.

Hey guys, I am getting ready to go swimming.  How do I look?  Out of this world?

Yeah….if you are a pasty white person, don’t get the gray swim cap.

Swimming in December

What are you two doing? You know we're on mandatory water restriction. The water broke! The house is flooded! Yippee!

All the water I’ve tried to conserve went out the window with one broken appliance.

Sheesh, this flooded more than I expected.

The Swimming Hole

In real life puppies aren’t allowed to come here, so we’ve found a way around the rules!

As long as it’s not a bath, I’m game.
