Sorry

Dear Lady in the Green Shirt and Khaki Pants,

I am sorry. I really am. You see flying on plane, let alone one of the small buses with wings, makes me very nervous and a little skittish. When I ran into you I had just landed at Cincinnati Airport terminal B and was somewhat shaken up by the slightly rough landing.

I appreciate that you were understanding and that you answered my question honestly when I asked "Where are the urinals?"

You smiled as you looked up from the sink as you fixed your pants and said, "You are in the ladie's room. The urinals are in the men's room."

Again, I am sorry.


William

That you were asking a woman didn't clue you in? You were tired, weren't you?

Roger Miller said...

I wish I'd have been there when you asked that question. I would have been laughing so hard I'd be crying. At least you both didn't freak out at the situation... She's probably told all her friends and they are having a HUGE laugh....

How did she know the urinals were in the mens room? It must have happened to her too.

Poor man, you were really out of it...maybe the Bermuda Triangle/Twilight Zone descended upon you while you were in the air ~ confusing your brain cell(s) and maybe even altered some of your brain cells.

Another LOL!!! William, what is wrong with you? You were a very good reader in fifth grade. What happened since? I know you knew the words "women" and "men" then. You must be a worse flyer than I am! I get it! It's now symbols, not words....and in today's world a guy could be wearing a skirt and a woman pants. You are the funny one!

having had an "emergency" situation happen at the local Science museum in Boston...and having the same thing happen...I went into the mens room because I "had" to...(actually I didnt even realize it was the mens room, thats how bad it was)the guys were really freaked out...but it was that bad I couldn't wait for the 9 thousand women in line...I figure I freaked them out but didnt crap my pants. That's ok right????

If you just would've peed in the toilet, you'd be none the wiser (and you'd probably owe her an even bigger apology). Is there an unwritten law that says no peeing in toilets in men's public restrooms?

Theresa said...

Well, there have been plenty of women who have hijacked men's restrooms in desperation, so in the grand scheme of things, all is good.

Unknown said...

Hehe. I hope you made that up.

I've used a men's room before, on purpose. The line was too long for my own and I was pregnant. I'd do it again, too, if I needed to.
But I was still embarrassed.
And now I'm worried about flying next week!

"Wanna get away?"

Nice.

glad you weren't so fogged up that you would have peed in the waste basket attached to the wall.

I just think someone should point out to you that it is not mandatory when they offer you a drink on the plane.

Oh dear William! ( How come you can remember exactly what she was wearing? You freakin pervert.)
