my turn

And yes I was 14! We were on a family vacation to Alaska and we got a little lost around Portage Glacier and this gorgeous park ranger found us as well as some others (he'd been patrolling due to an inordinate number of bears in the area). It was cold and he had all the ingredients to make hot chocolate. So we are standing in a circle of family and strangers and me with my dorky glasses, hideous skin and Farrah hair. I'm trying to act so cool so as to impress cutie boy, cause you know-I was so hot anyway. And my uncle said something funny just as I took a drink of REALLY hot chocolate and I laughed and shot REALLY hot chocolate OUT OF MY NOSE in front of everybody including the gorgeous park ranger. And of course being 14 I did not realize how obvious I was in acting SO cool and my dad leaned over and said, "I bet that really impressed him."

It hurt like H-E-double bamboo shoots to top it off.
