<p>When I pulled out my goggles for the first time in a while, I started laughing, remembering when a friend of mine asked me if I’d pulled them out of the pool’s lost and found. I said, “No, these are mine.” He thought they were a child’s goggles because they are a colorful green
with a bubblegum pink strap. “Nope,” I explained, “I bought them.” </p>
<p>“By
accident?” </p>
<p>“Nope. Entirely on purpose.” </p>
<p>“Why?”</p>
