phone rings:
"Hey babe, I'm picking you up in 5. Be ready we're going to the park."-Hoeun
"K, let's get drinks first."-me
---------------------------
Chevron gas station
"Alright, Gatorade should be good."-Hoeun
"I dunno hun, it has been a while we might need more than that."-me
"Like this?" He holds up a gallon of water
"Uhhh well...I guess that'll do." I didn't know how refreshing it would turn out to be.

"Silver surfer" aka the caravan
"Babe my contacts are buggin me. I'm gonna take them out. Can you cup some of that water in your hands to clean them?"-Hoeun
"Yeah. yeah sure." I grabbed the gallon of water tipped it slightly then placed it between my feet. He handed me his contact, "It's not working the water is just dripping through."
"OK, so use the cap from the gallon."-Hoeun
"Well what if we turn the gallon will go flying."-me
"It's not that hard. Just put it between your legs and hold it till we get there."-Hoeun
"Alright." Suddenly, as I poured water into the cap, a bus swooped in front of us. Breaks squealed, I screamed and the momentary lapse of reality ensued. In a few seconds my heart rate normalized, I opened my eyes to the after math... Old faithful had erupted! I had unknowingly engineered my own impromptu geyser.
"WHAT HAPPENED!"-Hoeun
"What? I dunno! Ummm, you told me to put it between my legs!" as my sinuses quickly drained from the surge of spring water, "Why did you slam on the breaks?!" I reached for the mirror and flapped it open....water rushed down leaving a beaded reflection of the sea witch I had become.
"There was a bus that came out of no where!"Hoeun suddenly turned Italian with hands flailing ricocheting water with every gesture. "You didn't see it?! It was insane!!....(yadda yadda yadda.)"
Mascara down to my chin, I looked like I had been swirlied. Whats worse, I turned to my right and we were at a stop light (Longest stop light of my life). People staring, nose to glass, at the phenomenon. Half a gallon of water raining from the ceiling of the car down the windows on a bright sunny afternoon. I didn't know what to do so I just smiled. Unintentionally, I think I might have become a new nightmare for that little girl.
The light turned green and in a hushed voice he said,"Babe...uhhh do you still have my contact?"
I flicked back my wet bangs in a greaser comb back effect and with great pride revealed that in my left hand, the contact, "I never let it go."

There's a couple things I learned from this one:
1) I have boa constrictor thighs
2) The combination of two people may not make you smarter...but can make a hell of a good story later.
