One Dozen Old Ladies in My Change Room.

a) this is not just a catchy title to draw attention
b) this is not the title of some wierd dream I had

What this is is the reality my FAMILY adn I found when I took them swimming on Thurs, in prep for a string of long nights at the office for me. We went into the FAMILY change room designed for FAMILIES that have both genders, so tehy can change together, especially when those FAMILIES have very young children. In that change room there are 3 large stalls where a FAMILY can change to gether, helping the toddler. There are limitted stalls cause the use of these is limited to FAMILIES.

Apparantly am aqua size class had just ended, and the old ladies prefer the FA....okay, I will stop the all caps...family change room because they are modest and like the individual stalls. Because of that, it would have been a half hour wait for us a s a family to use one of these stalls designed for our situation. we proceeded to pull ou tAmanda's swimming costume, etc from the one bag we had packed, gave her separate locker money, and went separate ways. end of the world, no, but don't call it a family change room. I approached botha life guard and the front desk person. No one wants to go give instructions or correction to an older lady though, how nice of them.

If I bring 12 high school boys who are all modest into the family change, I give it 30 seconds before the SWAT team is cleaning house, or at least a life guard witha whistle. I left a note for the civic center manager to call me since no one else would be a voice of the rule implied by the sign that says family change only.

I told my wife that next week we return at the same time to see if anyone has taken leadership. I was polite in my note to the manager, but next week if I find the same, jake and I will go in with amanda into family change, and if the stalls are full because of the older ladies, Jake and I will have little (notice I don't say no) choice but to just start suiting up (which invloves suiting down first) right there in the common area of family change.

I am sorry if you or anyone else is particularly modest, but does that not sound like the type of person who should pay for a private health club membership, not a public civic center? Just a thought, and I know I am right in that. A friend of mine used to pin his towle in the corner of the lockers, using the keys of unused lockers, and create a nice modest bellybutton high stall for himself.

Once again, sorry if I have abad attitude, just that kind of week for me I guess.

Would love your feedback so i know I have readers.
