You learn something every day!
One day at band camp.....
Seriously...Lake Ouchita...last summer...out on a barge and no bathroom in site. We were all in the water having just finished kick cyles and nav dives for AOW. I had to go, and whispered to another lady. She says go in your suit...it'll rinse out. No way...I'm not peeing in my suit! I really gotta go... Ok, now I'm desparate...I'll give this a try, cause if I don't my bladder's gonna burst. Damn it! It won't come out! I tried...and I tried....and I tried. Nothing would happen. Stage fright I guess. Not that I really wanted to pee in my suit, but...I had to go. I hear Steve tell us to get back up in the barge cause we're gonna go over to the dam to work on bouyancy. I'm the furthest out, but start moving toward the boat and spring a leak...a leak that just won't stop! They're all on the boat and I'm standing there....and it won't stop! OMG!!! How embarrassing!!! Steve looks over at me and says "You're not peeing in my wetsuit are you?" "Who, what? Peeing, no, I'm not peeing!" "What's the hold up? Let's go!" It still won't stop! Miss Edna, the sweet lady that suggested I pee in my wetsuit to start with is about to roll off the barge laughing! All I can say is "Damn it Edna! This is all your fault!" Now I think Briny said it about right...NEVER pee at the end of your dive! Steve's getting impatient as I take my time working my way over to the ladder hoping it all rinse out before I climb up. Oh hell no...I climb out of the water and all I feel is warm liquid running down my legs! I'm sneering and Edna's rolling with laughter!
Never, never again will I ever even attempt to pee in my wetsuit! I don't care how long I have to hold it! I'll hit the girls room 2 or 3 times before a dive just to make sure, and if there isn't a girls room around guarantee I'll be finding myself some privacy somewhere! That had to be my most embarrasing moment in diving.
