So we are at the water park today and we are in the little kiddie play area and Aubrey lies down under this spout of water that is pouring out of a tower. She starts going on and on about how good it feels on her back and it feels like she is getting a massage. I am standing there with my back that has been bothering me for the past few days thinking, DANG! That does look good! I was half tempted to get down there and try it out myself. But then I started thinking about how much I would resemble a beached whale and decided I didn't want to scare all the kiddies away. But Aubrey kept doing it. And I so longed to join her. I thought maybe if I could convince all the other moms that it would feel like a massage, and if I could get a few of them to do it with me, it wouldn't be so bad. But then I looked around me at the extreme fashion show we had going on at the water park. What, with all the moms in full makeup, hair and hair accessories that can't get wet, sunglasses, earrings, and high heels and decided they were probably a little to good to get their massages in the kiddie pool. So now here I sit, slumped over the computer, my back still aching, thinking: beached whale or not, I am gettin' down there with Aubrey next time!

Makeup at the pool? The fools. I'm with you: get down and get a back massage. You know they'll all be wishing they could get in there and join you, even if it means ruining the mani-pedis (I bet they didn't even use orbital sanders!!).
