The warm sensation enveloping Rico's body relaxed his bladder control and vivid dreams of relieving himself in the proper place made it seem normal. But something was n't quite right. The acrid smell of a public gymnasium pool certainly did n't belong in his bathroom. 
 
 With a snap his eyes opened to a really familiar place. 
 
 `` What. The. Fuck.'' Rico heard himself say. Wide eyed, Rico attempted to get his bearings and more importantly figure out if he actually pissed all over himself and his bed. The ceiling was really high up and there was a lattice of steel supports and sodium vapor lights. None of the lights were on. There was no ceiling fan. No familiar faces in the acoustic spray. 
 
 A slight lift in his head revealed he was floating in an indoor heated pool. The only light in the place was coming from under water on the far end of the pool. The faintly greenish murkiness in his immediate vicinity in the water confirmed that he indeed has pissed himself. 
 
 `` Am I still dreaming?'' 
 
 Some text on a near by sign caught on a his attention. 
 
 NO LIFEGUARD ON DUTY 
 
 `` I can read the sign. The letters are all in the correct order. And I definitely feel more than I-pissed-my-pants wet.'' 
 
 Lowering his feet, Rico realizes he is in the shallow end of the pool and stands up. The water cascading off of him is practically booming at the deserted pool. The short walk up the steps and out of the water dropped the rest of the fog from his waking mind. 
 
 `` How the fuck did I end up in the Jefferson County Public Pool? And I hope there is n't a fucking alarm.'' 
 
 The gym doors opened out into the dim lobby. Just one of the overhead fluorescent lights was on over the registration desk. The security camera was luckily aimed at the door and not back toward Rico. There is just enough of a glint that Rico can see between the front doors that does confirm the doors are locked. And glancing up around the door frame, there is also wiring for an alarm system. 
 
 With freedom so close, Rico starting to panic a little bit. 
 
 `` I really do n't want to have to explain why I am in here to the cops. Or why they need to shock the hell out of the pool now.'' 
 
 He just needed to figure out how to get to the other side of the damn door. It's so close. And with a sharply inhaled breath that was the start of a very defeated sigh, a curious sensation over came him. As if the universe itself was whispering in his ear, the tingly sensation washed over his scalp and down his sides. And as if someone had turned up the hue saturation to reality, Rico could perceive the fabric of the existence: spacetime. It was as if the 19th century physicists were right all along about the æther. They just could n't measure it. The quantum foam itself was the medium. And it was ever so nearly imperceptibly expanding. 
 
 `` Acid? Shrooms? What the-'' With the sudden insight into reality, Rico had the irresistible urge to cut through the foam. Lifting a single finger and then solidly planting it in midair, Rico dragged the finger down tracing a large oval shape through the foam. The immediate image before him was the parking lot as if a giant magnifying glass were right in front of him. 
 
 He stepped through. 
 
 There was a very loud pop, not unlike a small firecracker. The texture of the ground was biting into Rico's feet and the warm was quickly getting sucked away by the breeze. The parking lot gravel was sticking to his feet until he get over to the grass and brush it all off. 
 
 Rico was stunned. He drew another oval in the air and this time the razor thin plane revealed his bed room. He stepped through again and the plush feel of the old carpet between his toes was certainly better than the parking lot gravel.

 The following morning Rico awoke in his bed to the strangest sensation. A beam of sunlight peeking through the blinds had found its way on his face. The pressure of the light was somewhat suffocating and made Rico pull up his breath short. 
 
 With one squinty eye opened, Rico confirmed he was still in his room and in his bed. That nearly imperceptible expansion of the universe feeling was still there. The sunlight was uncomfortable much like having the exhaust of a vacuum cleaner blown in your face. 
 
 It was n't many mornings Rico would be awake before the cats started meowling for breakfast.
