I stop at a rest area and head to the restroom.
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 restroom and I don't know what got into me, but I answered, somewhat embarrassed,
"Doin' just fine!"
And the other person says:
"So what are you up to?"
What kind of question is that? At that point, I'm thinking this is too bizarre so I say:
"Uhhh, I'm like you, just traveling!"
At this point I am just trying to get out as fast as I can when I hear another question.
"Can I come over?"
Ok, this question is just too weird for me 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 person say nervously...
"Listen, I'll have to call you back. There's an idiot in the other stall who keeps answering all my questions."
Cell phones; don't you just love them?

I thought this was going to be a Sen. Larry Craig joke.
I'm with Ted, I thought fatal attraction with a tape recorder...this is hysterical...That's one of my peeves though, people who talk on the phone while they're in the bathroom, I mean really don't have an extra minute to whiz and then get on your phone??? Is this really where we should be multitasking and how embarrasing when you hear a flush and you're on the other end of the line-thanks for taking time out of your busy day to talk to Me???
