it was about 70 degrees and i was not dressed in white.

There were some people standing outside in their driveway having a BBQ and I parked a few feet away. I averted my eyes because of the way the man was standing there with a hose, pointed out toward the street.

"Hey."

I looked over. "yeah."

He said, "Come over here."

and I said, "I do not know if that's a good idea."

and the other party people there with him said, "Yeah, cross the street!"

so I was like, "ok."

I went over and said, "Hello."

and he said "Let me spray you with this hose here."

and I said "No. I have groceries and I will also get wet."

and he whined, "C'mon. it's hot as shit."

the sun was indeed out in force.

and his friends said, "C'mon!"

and one held up a boogieboard with the ocean on it and said,

"You can pretend it is the spray of the waves."

So I said, "ok." and a girl took my groceries

and then the man sprayed me with cold water mist while his friends cheered.

Then I took my groceries, thanked them, and went to the house to make fresh basil pizza.
