So my roomie and I hit the sauna after our 2 hour work out.

Roomie: "I am just gonna lay down here"
Rach: "k"
Roomie: "You just missed my friend. He just walked out of here all hot and sweaty."
Rach: "oh darn"
Roomie: "I am so shaky right now. Everything on me hurts.
Rach: "Me too"
Roomie:"Tonight I am not going to be able to talk. My jaw is so sore. I am going to be like deerrr"
Latin Man in Sauna: "Que cochinas! I have to go clean off now"
Latin Man leaves Sauna disgusted by us!
Roomie: "What!?! Cochinas! How are we cochinas? (this means pigs or dirty girls in Spanish)
Rach: "ummm think about it, you said your friend just walked out of here shirtless and sweaty, then you complained that you were sore all over and that your jaw hurts so bad you cant talk!!!"

5 minutes pass, 6 other men walk in. Latin Man returns, after getting cleaned off in the pool. He sits next to the Cochina roomie.

Roomie upset with Latin man: "I didn't mean it like that. Why did you call us cochinas?"
Latin Man: "Why eh"
Roomie: "Because we aren't pigs"
Latin Man: "No eh its like your exotic or something!"
Roomie: "What? Exotic?? That is not what cochina means!"
Latin Man: "Ya eh, its like ur bad in a good way. Like bad ass."
Roomie: "No, I know what it means and I have never heard it like that!"

They fight over the definition. He is dumb. We decide that cochina can be what ever one wants it to be. It is the good meal I made tonight. It is the dirty mesero who keeps repeating roomies name and touching her hand. It is a tie dyed shirt. It is professor hitting on student. It is no clean underwear. It is the bad ass salsa dancer. It is gypsy music. It is my tipsy gypsy coctail. It is my brother who wants me to take him to the airport at 3 AM. It is this day. A cochina day.
