The other stall


I got this e-mail from my Mom-in-law a while back and thought you would enjoy it too.


Traveling down the interstate and needing to use the restroom,
I stopped at a rest area and headed to the bathroom.

I was barely sitting down, when I heard a voice from the other stall saying,
"Hi, how are you?"

I'm not the type to start a conversation in the rest room,
but I answered, somewhat embarrassed,
"doing just fine!"

And the other person says,
"So, what are you up to?"

What kind of a question is that? At this point, I'm thinking this is too bizarre,
so I say:
"Uuh, I'm like you, just traveling!"??

I'm now just trying to get out as fast as I can, when I hear another question:
"Can I come over?"

Now this is way too weird, but I figured I could just be polite and end the conversation.
I tell them...
"No, I'm a little busy right now!"

Then I hear the other person say:
"Listen, I'll have to call you back. Some crazy person in the other stall
keeps answering all my questions."

Don't you just love cell phones?

  13. Heeehehehehe! Great. I was gettin' some milk out of the cooler at Wally-World when a lady came up beside me and said, "well, what do you think about that! I stood upright and asked, " what do I think about what???" Drawin' a deep angry breath the woman turned and literally stomped away. In doin' this the store lights glimmered off her 'blue-tooth!" Who knew???

    God bless ya and have a marvelous weekend!!!

  14. Oh my goodness Mari! This is hilarious! Some of the younger girls in our office building talk on their phones in the bathroom and it drives me crazy! If they are not on their phones, they are standing there gabbing.

  18. BAAAAAAAAHAHAHA that reminds me of when someone you know (like in the church parking lot, or at work) is walking towards you, looking right at you, TALKING, and of course you smile and tune in and try to understand what they're saying ... and then they ignore you and walk right past ... and it's right about then you see the bluetooth headset in their ear.

    FAIL. Me no likey.

  19. Too funny! I've heard people of their phones in the bathroom before and thought "how weird". So glad I knew they were on their phones and not talking to me. LOL
