Well....I did it. I put on a bathing suit and got in a pool with people who can see. It was a big move. I arrived in jeans and a t-shirt with my suit underneath....my first thought was to get into the pool fully clothed and undress under the water. Upon arrival around 9 pm, I was overjoyed to see that all of the lights were out in the pool and only one light was on in the patio (due to the swarms of mosquito's that love the 100% humidity in Houston). I walked to the side of the pool (the darkest and farthest side), wrapped in my towel, stood for awhile going over the game plan in my head, then dropped it and jumped...it was painless.
I had a much needed good time last night. There is nothing better than floating around a pool at night, with friends and a sky full of stars. I made a new friend, Jennifer, who is a girl after my own heart. She is the shit! She had me laughing for about 4 hours straight...I had a few minor bladder leaks and alot of uncontrollable coughing from all of the laughter. Thanks Jennifer for your humor!
And, thanks Karen and Jim for putting a pool in your awesome backyard and sharing it with friends!

Last night I had a dream I walked into your garage and there was nothing in it except a few boxes of Kraft items. He He... so random!
ReplyDeleteGlad you had a good weekend. Call me soon.
Congrats to both of us, I think - I wore a swimsuit in front of others for the first time in five years this weekend, AND it was a two-piece. I was so excited about being on the beach that I thought "to hell with it!"
