Yay me!! I put on my brave girl panties (which happen to be invisible) and walked into the swim shop at the aquatic center this morning after our swim. The saleslady team specialist gave Sid and me a concise lesson on swimsuits and goggles and left me to pick from a couple dozen shapes, sizes and colors.
I settled on a handful of suits and ventured into the women's locker room with Sid in tow. (Thank God.) After navigating through a gaggle of half dressed ladies, I managed to tuck myself into a potty stall to try on the suits. Unfortunately, this left Sid to fend for herself in the land of nudeness. (Giggle.)
After mashing my boobs into a couple of suits, I moved up a size and fell in love with this colorful little beauty...
Yes, my quest for a cute one piece is complete. It's perfect! And I grabbed a pair of goggles while I was being brave, what the heck...
Sure, I probably look like a three year old in her matchy matchy gear heading for her first swimming lessons, but dammit... that's how I roll. I mean really, if I was a true three year old, I'd probably tell you about the locker room lady who banged a colossal beanie in the stall next door when Sid was in midsentence.... I'd tell you how I couldn't look Sid in the eyes without laughing my head off, so I quickly turned toward the wall and bit my tongue to regain control while the volcanic sounds errupted from the stall. But no, I'm not a three year old, so I would NEVER do that.
Locker rooms are scary.
My new suit rocks.
The end.
