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.
Don't belong. Dangerous, like you. Can't be controlled. Can't be trusted. Everyone could just go on without me and not have to worry. People could be what they wanted to be. Could be with the people they wanted. Live simple. No secrets.

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

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.

If you want something that will last for-freaking-ever, go with the polyester suits. But matters less if you aren't frying it in chlorine on a weekly basis. Mine last about 6-7 months before things start sliding around.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
My absolute favorite swimsuit is this top [link] with these bottoms [link] It's one of the very few bathing suits I've found that doesn't get uncomfortable after a few hours.

Yay, Perkins!!
Hil, ugh, I wish you hadn't posted that site. Because I didn't love how full-cut the bottom was on the suit I linked, and I really love this top [link] with this bottom. [link]
Maybe I could get a cute printed pricier top, and a pair of cheaper black bottoms? I'm really only worried about the boobs anyway.

WooHoo!
(I sorta obsessed with my swimming. I apologize for inflicting it on y'all. I always realize I'm getting craxy after the fact.)

Yeah, sarameg, cause NO ONE ever obsesses about their own thangs on here!
I think it's great; I'm in awe of how consistent you are. Get wet with yer bad self!
Um.
