I accepted a call for a pick up at the Cedar Park Center.  I knew that the D-League Basketball playoffs were underway so I was sure that it would be someone that had seen the game and I could catch up on how the Spurs were doing.

When I arrived it took a moment for the rider to find me.  It turned out to be a large group of riders and some of them were already "toasted" and it was only about 10:00 pm.  We started away and I was following the app on how to get to the location.  We were on a fairly empty road and one of the guys in the back starts yelling to open the window.  I forgot that I had the windows all turned off but immediately energized the window for him.  He was barfing and was barfing a lot.  When one of the back windows is down it causes a resonating sound in the vehicle so I had rolled down my window a little to stop the deafening pounding of the sound.  It was cold outside so I was worried that the group was going to complain about it being too cold.  Instead the guy setting next to me said that we needed to find a place to clean my car.  I told him it was okay that all of the barf had gone out the window.  He kept repeating that we needed to stop so finally I pulled into a gas station and stopped.  I got out and went around to the other side of the vehicle and holy cow!  I had never seen so much barf on the side of a vehicle in my life.  I grabbed one of those little windshield washer squeegees and began cleaning it off.  Everyone got out of the vehicle, grabbed other squeegees, and started helping.  I went over and asked the big barfer guy if he was okay. He said that he was okay although he wasn't moving around much.

We got the hell out of the gas station before they complained about their contaminated squeegees and made it to the destination not long thereafter.  They guy in the passenger seat began to apologize profusely.  I told him that it was all okay and that I could easily finish the clean up.  He gave me a twenty dollar bill and continued apologizing.  We shook hands and I left, heading straight for a car wash.
