Tiny&Tan

The same summer of my Camp Counselor days
(three summers ago - to be exact)
I laid by the pool a lot.
Being in a bathing suite
- in front of high school boys -
for an entire summer motivated me to stay on my fitness
every single day.
It was very reaffirming to be the counselor
all the boys wanted
on their shoulder in Chicken
or
in the lounge chair next to them.
I think I miss the tan the most.
You'd think that a constantly-warm climate
would make keeping a tan easy,
but I find myself paler than ever...
...and I always feel much skinnier in a tan.
