Over it? Pssh, I'm Under It, Baby

I'm over people saying they are over things. (Sorry, Helene <3 you)

Today I rather focus on things I am under or want to be under!  Things I enjoy!

Most days I want to be under the covers! I don't actually sleep under covers fully because I get really hot, so most of the time I am hugging the covers with my legs sticking out. It's weird how my shoulders get cold and the rest of me gets hot.

But some days I want to go to the beach and go under the water!

OKAY.  You'd think I'd want to be under THIS water:

I guess I'm a Baltimoran though, because I prefer to go downy oshun, hon. Both New Jersey and Maryland's Ocean City have epic, killer, so-scary-you-might-die waves. I don't like going in clean, beautiful, sparkling water.  I want to be under water that is going to make me crack my skull on the sea floor and wrench my shoulder after the waves knock me off my feet, throw me in the air, and then have me land really hard and almost drown.

Yes, look at that disgusting grey sludge ... yes that's the ocean I grew up with and almost drowned in dozens of times per Ocean City Maryland stay. If you don't have fish pee streaming out of your nose, sand in your eyes, and tears streaming down your face as you dizzily waddle your way back to your beach umbrella like you survived a ship wreck, it's just not worth the four hour drive.

And maybe when I'm done I'll want to be under anesthesia so I don't have to be awake for the drive home!

I'm linking this post up for Tell Me About It Tuesday ... go and get your link up fix!

  1. While I love crystal clear waters as much as the next girl, I prefer the south Jersey shore to any other shore ever. I'm with you on that and the feet out from under the covers thing.

    1. I know right? I mean I love those pure beaches for their beauty, but if I want an adventure give me some tall, tall waves and a risk of death and injury.

      I think the whole internet is with me on the feet out from under the covers thing.

    1. I WILL OPPOSITE EVERY PROPOSITION OUT THERE. Next week you'll be all TELL ME WHAT'S UP and I'll be all NO HELENE LET'S EXPLORE WHAT'S DOWN.

      But I do agree with all of your things!
