Especially In Alabama

The water's chilly for late August. My biology teacher says the lake retains the cold air from the night before, but I wonder why it doesn't soak in the heat of the sun during the day. Nature doesn't make sense.

Rebecca and Claire are arguing over whether bras and panties count as skinny dipping. It doesn't, no matter what Rebecca says. Claire decides I'm brave because I'm already in the water. But if the boys come they won't be able to see anything.

I've decided I don't care if they do. I wonder if that makes me a bad person.
