7 36 pm pdt   [ guilty pleasures ]

I just went skinny dipping, which is such a guilty pleasure for me. I don't know why, but I tend to feel as though I am doing something naughty and I am going to get caught. There certainly is no reason for me to feel that way. I can be naked in my backyard if I want. And I don't subscribe to societal norms about nudity. I have no problem changing in front of other people [except my mom]. I have no qualms with nude photos. But something specific about skinny dipping, and also about laying out nude, makes my heart race a bit.

Perhabs I am just feeling guilty for being out in the sun. When I think of how many hours of sun I got every day of my childhood, and how few I get now, I can't really feel so bad. But now we know what price can be paid for that glorious warmth. Ignorance is bliss...
