Pool Bits

When you live here in Northern NJ and have a pool, you use it every second possible.

Because we have the "princess temperature" thing going, we can happily extend the season.

What they DIDN'T tell you was that your pool shorts would have a very short life.  Chlorine is not particularily friendly, being a strong corroder and all.  

Here's where things take a nasty turn. These suits have an inside netting, for support and stuff.  No biggie- you put them on just like your everyday summer shorts.

Except

After a few hours in the pool, the netting sort of adheres.  When you race in to remove these things, the netting has decided to cling to some very nerve-rich areas. 

Now, you would expect a seasoned swimmer to preprare for this, but no.  I pull them off and cry out in agony.  Time and time again.
