Summer do's and don'ts...

My first bit of summer advice reguarding the public pool. Personally, I avoid them completely. However if you are brave enough to be found amidst the murky waters of a public pool... they are some key terms to listen for and evaluate. If you are to hear one or more of these disturbing conversations as you're frolicking amiss the waters... stop... re-evaluate your relationship with this public 'bath tub' and get out!!! Run for your life! Rinse off !!! And go to a friends pool... Come over to the Rickard's Pool!

Words you DON'T wanna hear in a public pool: Rash
stray hair
Ringworm
Junior's 'almost' potty trained
"I don't know... guess it's just a fungus?"

Words you NEVER use while swimming in a pool (public or not): Whoaa! What a splash!
bouyant
jello jigglers
roll...(buttered or not)
zit, pimple or pusstual
fried chicken breasts or thighs
scab
bandaid
yeast infection
shark!!! (that's just cruel)

Thanks for the tips. I am thinking of posting them at our pool.

Public bath tub.... I'd never thought of it that way. Ew. Maybe that's why yours is the only pool I've graced in, oh, 5+ years.

WOW! I love waking up in the morning and reading my 'ambien posts'... Pretty funny. I can't believe I wrote yeast infection! Yuck!

You are so funny! I try not to think about it at the pool...alas a public one is about the only ones out here! So, maybe we should live with you guys next summer and spend the summer learning to swim...I wish!

having been a previous patron of a public pool (hey, that's alot of 'p' words!!), i can vouch for the 'mysterious things lurking in a public pool' idea...let's just say, thank God for chlorine!!!!

Hi friend! Totally hilarious post. How about the words LESION or OOZING? And you certainly wouldn't want to hear them both in a sentence. How did I know that this was an Ambien post before you even mentioned it? :) Did you have chicken pot pie again? You know me, I highly recommend Cheetos! Sorry I've been out of touch. I'll call you tomorrow to catch up. Love you and sure do miss you!
