Got Voicemail? Use It

So anyone who really knows me is very aware of my absolute hatred for anything bathroom related.

I will nicely exclaim during a movie that there is never a need to shoot a scene in a bathroom.
Seriously, 99% of the stuff movies show in bathrooms could be done in any other nicer location. We all know what the bathroom is for, why do we need to be constantly exposed to it?! Also on the top of the list is talking on your cell phone while using the bathroom. (Now, my dear friend Mama Linda on occasion will take her phone in her bathroom while at home. Although I still don't approve, at least it is in the privacy of her home).

So with these bathroom issues comes my dreaded disgust in using public restrooms. There have been many mishaps while in a public restroom, and if I can avoid them I will. But with all this traveling I have to do for work, and after 5 Diet Pepsi's, I just can't hold my bladder anymore.

I search out the cleanest looking joint in the neighborhood (not an easy feat in some small towns) and proceed to the restroom. Then of all things, I hear the lady next to me say "Hello....." So I think she will have a quick conversation - consisting of, I'm busy let me call you back, but NO - she just talks as usual. I did my business, washed my hands, dried my hands, then left and she was still just talking along. Seriously, the world is not going to end because you missed a call. You have voicemail for a reason, and this would definitely be the time to use it! And you don't even want to know of the dry heaves (heeves?) that will ensue after the person on the other end realizes your were on the toilet during the entire conversation.

....Remind me never to borrow anyone's cell phone!
