You totally can't control getting hit by a water balloon, and your rho chis were wrong for acting that way.

But I can remember girls choosing at which houses they would ask to use the restroom. They didn't want to miss any time at a favorite group, so asking to use the restroom during a party was a big sign of disinterest.

(It could sometimes be worked out that a PNM could go in while the rush group was waiting outside between rounds, so it wasn't like not asking required superhuman restraint.)

I mention this only because if your rho chi thought you were taking all party to dry off, she might have taken it for disinterest in the group as irrational as that was under your particular circumstances.
