High School Swim Team Party

On Saturday night we had a high school swim team party at Sirenia’s house. I had never been there before, but I was surprised to discover that it was 1.2 miles from where I live!
The main game was a relay, which consisted of several generic party events (such as carrying a LifeSaver on a straw in your mouth), but with the inclusion of a Challenge from Hell™: Debra concocted a Drink of Doom from ice cream, tarter sauce, cottage cheese, nacho cheese?, Tabasco, pretzels, ketchup, and more (the drink was pink and chunky, suspiciously similar to vomit).
Once did I taste the infernal Drink, yet thrice did I almost taste my lunch again. I’ve eaten some very questionable things in my life, but this was the closest thing to death that has ever entered my mouth.
After the relays there were plates of whipped cream set out, with a piece of bubble gum buried in each. We had to dig in with our face and find the bubble gum, then be the first to blow a bubble.
It wasn’t pretty.
After everyone had gotten cleaned up and things were starting to slow down, five of us went on a “walk”, which ended up being a 1.2 mile excursion to my house. The only problem was we forgot to tell people that we’d be gone for a while, so apparently they sent a rescue party up the road looking for us… Needless to say, they weren’t too thrilled when we came back an hour later in a van, refreshed and wondering what was all the commotion.
