All growns up...

The purple monster at age 3. HP03 has been having a good time swimming lately. While she dreads the start each and every time, she likes it after being in there for fifteen mintues. In fact, HP03 can say without a doubt, that last night she was the best swimmer in the pool (ha ha wiseasses, there were lots of people there, wildly overweight and old people, but lots of them). She thinks she is getting better and expects, in a few weeks time, to be ready for an official lesson from CoachHotSpeedo. HP03 almost figured out how to breathe and has actually improved on her "shark chase" kicking style. She has now progressed to a point where she wonders if her arms are coming out of the water too much or too little and if the seemingly arbitrary movement she makes with her arms under the water is serving her well.

At age 23 HP03 has abandoned the "purple monster" suit and cap combo, in favor of the cool-kid black suit and purple cap -- in honor of the artist formerly known as prince. Apparently, this combo really does it for the boys. HP03 is never, she repeats, never hit on, but since she's started frequenting the OT YMCA her milkshake has brought all the boys to the yard.

HottieLifeguard insists on chatting up HP03 each time she goes to the pool. He's taken to complimenting her swimming, which, while it has vastly improved, is still overall laughable. Whatever, HP03 will take it where she can get it. Oh, wait...no she won't. The problem with HLG workin' for HP03 is that it has made her a little self-conscious, but then she remembers that SB likes her whether or not she can swim -- he's solely superficial about her running technique ;-) -- and she gets over it.

HP03 digresses.

Point is she got hit on again last night, by a hero. "This is my last lap ma'am I'll be out of your way in just a sec." This story just proves the point that HP03 has no game. She responds with a messy southerny accent, "Well, awright."

Game on...

I'm pretty sure she meant to say something cute about sharing a lane with him or something. Also reasonably certain she meant to wipe the snot and mascara off of her face.

There you have it HPs, 03 is the hottest thing to hit the OT YMCA since her blonde bombshell life partner started her brief hiatius and since it has been discovered that chlorine dilutes Latina mojo.

But seriously folks, look at that face, could you resist that face?
