I was rushing around after tutoring two first year students at the college I attend as a senior. My roommate, Danny and I who also attends the same college, he and I were going to a costume party around 8pm. It was a Friday evening, late November and it had been pouring rain all day. On my walk home to our tiny one bedroom apartment I had gotten soaked to the skin from the cold torrential downpour. I couldn’t see a frigging thing. I was wearing my eyeglasses and they were fogged up. I’m blind as a bat without my glasses and I should have worn my contact lenses in the first place. I was too freaking lazy to clean them earlier that morning. My clothing was stuck to my skin and I was cursing myself for not taking an umbrella with me. It had begun raining heavily early that same morning. I had to bend over trying to stick my key into our apartment doorknob-lock. Danny and I, Jack lived off campus. Finally, I got the bloody key into the hole with my foggy eyeglasses stuck on top of my head. I lowered my glasses. They sat on the tip of my nose as I opened the door.

“I'm home, shit Danny, I’m almost blind,” I said thinking he’d be inside as soon as I walked into our shared accomodations.

“Holy shit, sorry,” I said trying to make out what, I mean who was sitting on our sofa. I removed my glasses, shook them and my head. My mop of curls sprayed the door. I shoved my glasses back on and stared. “Who are you?” I asked trying to see who the hell she was. From where I was standing the chick looked like a hard looking hooker! She didn’t reply but she waved her hand.

“Odd!” I thought. “Hey Danny, where the hell are you, sorry I didn’t know you were having company over, I thought we we’re going to that costume party, sorry I’m late, same old, same old today, busy as hell, where the hell are you, answer me!” I hollered.

“I’m right here you daffy blind bat, it’s me!” Danny exclaimed.

I was placing my satchel on our dinky dinette table. At least I could find my way around inside our apartment with my eyes closed.

I looked around, not seeing Danny. I had to clean my glasses. I had to remove my wet jacket first.

“Where? Where? Where, I don’t see you, stop screwing around, Danny,” I said removing my wet jacket before tugging at my shirt tails tucked inside my jeans using it to wipe my glasses. “Answer me Danny, my goggles are fogged up,” I said. “Are you really that blind?” Danny asked.

Danny sounded as if he were pretty close to where I was standing. All I could see was a big blur, the ugly as sin chick sitting on the sofa. I shoved my glasses on my face. “Now, where the hall are you?” I asked as my goggles began fogging up again from the changes in temperatures.

“Right here Jack, it’s me, you’re too fucking funny dude!” he said.

“Holy SHIT!” I bellowed staring at my roommate sitting on the sofa. He was the hard looking chick! “You look like a cheap fucking hooker, a hard bitch if ever there was one!” I said laughing my ass off pointing at him. “Ha, ha, very funny, I think I look
