Ouchie, From Left Field
I swim 5/7 days a week about and hour after dinner, and it's super boring most of the time...just laps after laps, at a nearby community pool to get back in shape. However, something interesting caught my attention tonight, and I thought it's somewhat worthy to share here. So, just popping my head out of the water after a long interval to check the clock, and I heard a pair coming from the jacuzzi to the lounge chairs by the pool. It's dark (outdoor pool), but the reflection from the pool light is enough for me to make out that there is a a girl and a guy; highschoolers I would say. Girl is a head head, the guy is Asian. Anyway, (didn't mean to eavesdrop) I heard the guy said to the girl, "It was really nice talking to you. So how should we do this? Should I call you, or you call me, or FaceBook?" She leaned over and gave him a quick kiss on the cheek. Then I thought to myself... alrighty, props my man (Asian guy with non-Asian girl is rare!). Her phone vibrated, and she said, "Hey, it's Gary!" The the Asian guy said, "Who's Gary!?" Then she said, "Oh, he's my boyfriend." Then he said, "Oh, uhmm, ok." (Last ok was a long Ok). Then I thought to myself....ouch, poor bastard didn't even know what hit him. Kept on swimming.
