i love my job.
at the Y, i got shafted with the 5am shift. laaaaame right?
actually... kinda awesome.
at the Y we have our "regulars".
in mesa, we called them pool rats. why? because they we all under 15 and, well... obnoxious.
however our regulars are cool. ESPECIALLY at 5 in the am.
here are a few of my favoritas:
Clown dude.
the guy comes every morning. at 6:20. Tummy falling over his blue shorts, hair on all the awkward places of his back, balding head with only a whisp smack in the middle of his cranium.
the man is cute! in a homer simpson kind of way.

He wades back&forth the lap pool all morning. not swimming, just walking. it's therapudic i guess.
my favorite part: his black, fluffy house slippers never leave his feet.
no, not even in the water.

Hippie mama.
this cute chicky is on the adult swim team, she's definitely preggers & still kickin it up in the pool, her belly rather evident between her speedo bikini. A tatoo is on her neck- i could just see it through the water- a recycle symbol.
awesome! mama wants to save the earth.

but why do i call her a hippie?
because, as i guarded her dear life while she happily swam; she lifted her arm and i saw it.
fur. fluffy, brown bunny-like fur.
mama doesn't shaves her pits. nor her legs.

Coworker #1
no names, please! lol. this guy works with me & is awesome. Long curly hair & a full beard, the man looks like Jesus. He's the type that rides a motorcycle while wearing Crocs. Today i learned that he grew up in Guam, had open heart surgery as a child & for some reason, he has half a bamboon heart.
what??
what??
Kung Fu Ninja Dude.
k. this guy reeks with awesomeness.
1st time i saw him it was in the Y's gym. joggers were jogging wearily on the treadmill,
when dude comes up. bandana on his head, camo sweats & sweatbands.
he climbs onto a treadmill next to a small asian woman and he's BOOKIN it! elbows & knees flying.
asian lady looks at him like, "whyyyy?" and leaves.

If that's the Y off Chinden, that's our old Y when we lived in Meridian from 2006-2008! Looks like it!
That's a great Y because of the awesome pool and the huge park behind it too!
Congrats on your new job!
