Soakin' up the Sun

It is 1:00 a.m. and I am still awake. Am I just that crazy?!?!

Well, yes, I am. But, as I was checking every other blog known to mankind, my funny pool story popped in my head and I just knew I should share it.

Today, as I was laying by my sweet apartment pool basking in the wonderful rays of sunshine, a few other people decided to join me. Now, know that they were not people I knew, but just people from the apartment. I actually love our pool, it's always pretty calm and not to busy, which makes it all the more enjoyable. Anyway, they came and went and I was soon alone with the pool to myself. I hopped in and did a few laps and returned shortly to my chair, it was nice and quiet so I decided to start reading my new Karen Kingsbury book.

Soon after that a car of 3 men pulled up to our pool. My first thought was "Please, don't come in here!" That's always just so awkward. But, sure enough, they did. I had no other option but to sit there and act like all was good in the world, planning in my head a quick exit.

As I was awkwardly sitting there, I heard them talking about getting in and how they should do it. Let me set this up for you, the pool was chilly, I can attest, but you got used to it very quickly. But, these weren't the smallest boys on planet earth, they could have passed as football players. So, as they were talking one of them decided the heck with it and did a full cannon ball into the pool. Do you realize that I was about 2 feet from the side of the pool? Needless to say, I was soaked. He kindly turned to me and asked if I was wet, in which I told him that I was, but it was OK because I was already wet anyway. Before I could blink, the other 2 decided that was a good idea and followed in his footsteps. Once again, I was soaked as they laughed their heads off. I guess the pool felt good?! Boys are funny. I quickly gathered my belongings and was out of there.

Thank you, football size men, for interrupting the peace and quiet of the Brazos pool. It's all yours now!!
