Funny thing about black and white. You mix it together and you get gray. And it doesn't matter how much white you try and put back in, you're never gonna get anything but gray.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Two that I know of! Bulgogi Taco Truck and KoKyu BBQ!

I am so not in the food truck know.

Also tempting: Esther Williams classic sheath [link] in "mega swirl" [link]

I think this is the one I wanted last year from Land's End, but I wish it showed a bit more cleavage. [link]

Good lord, nasty headache. Shower, drugs, and bed. WTH.

Pretty sure I've not had bao.

A rash just blew up on my ankle. I have no clue. Haven't eaten anything new. Maybe something bit me when I had the cats out on the deck earlier? Applied cortaid and my surefire itch-killer, cutter skinsations bug spray. Off Skintastics or whatever is the same stuff. I have no idea why it is so effective, it isn't marketed as such. Straight aloe doesn't help, the only other possible ingredient is DEET.

Either an epic turf war is happening at Union Memorial Hospital, or some locals discovered their firecracker stash. I suspect the latter, but it is kinda nuts!

I just bought a bikini from Lands End, from the "Canvas" section of the site ( = J. Crew wannabe.)

I may have developed some bikini anxiety in my old age, but if I never wear it, it was only $15. Here's the top: it feels very naked on me! [link]

Hah! Turns out it was the Hopkins fair kickoff. My echolocation skills aren't all bad!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Now I would like to buy a bathing suit. But the one I have is fine! I only wear it a couple of times a year anyway! Ah well.

My swimsuit is boring and practical and smooshes everything just right [link] in pink, and I paid less for it at keifer swim shop. Actually, speedo does make pretty suits I'd consider getting [link] [link] . If I ever need one for something other than laps.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I have a swimsuit obsession. Especially two pieces. For the amount of time I don't actually spend in the water, I have an insane number of them.

I AM buying a suit this year. The one I have is a cast-off of a friend's and it's 5 years old and no support. I think I am going to buy a two piece tankini from Newport News; I am never doing to have a non-underwire suit again.

I'm thinking this [link] in black. I've never spent more than $30 on a suit, but considering I go to the pool with M a LOT more in the last 2 summers, and a suit lasts me at least 5 years, I think I am ok with it.

Whereas I swim everyday, and have, um... 3 suits. All boring like the one linked. 2 retired, but kept just in case of primary suit failure. Or, you know, lost luggage.
