BLOG: Let It All Hang Out (Or Not)

Will I subject myself to a bathing suit or not?

It's that (not) wonderful time of the year again. You know, where you are yelling at yourself for the all the pie you ate at Thanksgiving, ham at Christmas, latkes at Hanukkah and the peeps at Easter.

This is the time where everywhere you turn, bathing suits are smacking you in the face! Your inner voice is going "uh uh not me, I'm not even going there" and your outer voice is screaming for the surf board.

Your inner voice is telling you that you can do 200 crunches a day before Memorial Day while your outer voice is saying, this year, I'm going to let it all hang out!

Forget "Hang 10," I'm hanging out all 25!

While you secretly sneak off to the mall to try on suits, you are praying that you don't run into anyone that may want to partner up on your shopping spree, because this year you know you're going to buy the suit one size bigger and cut off the tag!

While cutting tags, lets all cut the nails too as to avoid any sandal scandal!

Isn't this the (not) most wonderful time of the year? 

So, you can bikini diet, you can bikini-ready your body all you want, and I'll gladly tell you how great you look while I'm sitting on the side of the pool (in shorts) screaming, "Please don't get my hair wet!"

My grandmother would be so proud.

I have reached the, "Don't get my hair wet stage."
