Two rolls of film to develop are on their way! Man I wish I could develop black and white film in my sink. I would but it's summer, you need color! Plus, chemicals under the kitchen sink? Hah!
I don't know if you have ever been to Inman Park Pool, but it's pretty awesome. They have a diving board the Beluga Children's swim team! A friend drove so I left my camera bag in my car. I got so mad once a thousand kids were uniformly breastroking away. Imagine a bunch of health-obsessed Moms yelling along the sidelines, "Breaststroke, breaststroke! I said BREASTSTROKE!" *sharp whistle sound effect* And these poor kids are just being forced to take a fun activity like swimming to maybe potentially be the next Michael Phelps. Well, wake up and smell the sunscreen. Michael Phelps didn't set all those goals because Mama Phelps wanted him to. He did it because Mama Phelps supported him wanting to. Go Inman Park Beluga's!
I wanted to give all the little kids my horse trainer's card. First off, I don't have one to give. Second, she doesn't need any more clients. She's literally working herself till she's sick. It's pretty hard for sports-obsessed Moms to become obsessed about horse riding. Especially if they went to my barn. Cheryl wouldn't let it happen and no one is going to leave Cheryl's barn soon. I don't think I've talked much about Cheryl. Cheryl Pritchard, married to Nigel Pritchard, VP of International Something or Other at CNN. I love that he works in Atlanta instead of New York or LA.
While at Inman Park today, my heavily tattooed friend was bitched at by an angry-obsessed swim mom. Then as we were sitting on our poolside chairs, a much friendlier swim team Mom made our view of swim team Mom's better. While I was at the barn I was thinking about what the barn-moms would think of my heavily tattooed friend. I'd like to think they would all accept him for who he is, despite the body decoration. But then as I was thinking, I realized the horse world is probably the least accepting sport. Our barn is very diversified and very open compared to the others, but I don't think they would simply welcome him and his tattoos.
My late-night rambling is over now that my eyes are finally getting heavy. Goodnight Georgia.
