A Brief But Hilarious Interuption to "Spurrin You On"

Well... I know that I have been missed over the past few days, so I decided to give you an extra special Saturday blog!!!!!!!! For those of you who are regular blog readers, you know I have been out of town on a field trip, and you know that me and trips usually mean a hysterically funny story!!!!!! Who am I kidding...funny and embarrassing stuff happens to me everyday!!!!!!!My daily life seems to attract the strange and unusual and being on a field trip to Barrier Island leaves the door wide open!!!! I am going to eventually get to day 2 of "spurrin you on" but you guys must read this story first......If you have to use the restroom now may be a good time to let go of the mouse and attend to business.....The story may cause you to lose control of certain bodily functions.......

So.....I was in the bathroom at the camp where the field trip was......The camp is very "Earth" friendly since the majority of the curriculum at the camp is centered around the environment...As part of that "Earth" friendliness, all of the public restrooms are equipped with motion sensored lights.... This is a great idea, and probably saves lots on power bills...Think about how many lights are burning right now in bathrooms that no one is using......

Anyway... did I mention that I was "sitting" in the bathroom.... I'll let you be grown adults and figure that one out.... I was minding my business... taking care of business...., when the lights went out..Apparently I had not moved enough to keep them on!!!!... I panicked at first, but figured I would be alright..... Then my phone rang... it was an important call that I had been waiting on for 3 days so I took it.... So there I sit in the dark..... on the phone... in a public restroom.... at a children's camp..... My mind was racing and I was paranoid someone was gonna come in and wonder..."What is this freak doing sitting here in the dark on the phone??"

So I got up and tried to find the light sensor.... When I got up of course the toilet was automatic as well, and SWOOOOOSH down it went!!!!.....I 'bout had a heart attack!!!!!! I mean good grief, the sound of the water being flushed was as if the jet engines were preparing for take off!!!!! Here I am in the dark on the phone with an IMPORTANT PERSON trying not to let him know that I am in the restroom, and the toilet decides to flush...I am sure he heard it!!!!!........

(INSERT THIS : I am laughing so hard that I can not continue the conversation, and I am trying to listen but I had to move the phone so I would not interrupt what was being said......)

As I opened the door to the stall.....I could see the sensor, but it was around the corner and I could not get it to reboot the lights, so I did what any good man would do.... I started jumping up and down in the dark,... in the restroom,... on the phone,.... until FINALLY, it picked up my motion..... I think I heard the Lord say this!!!!!!!

I quickly finished my business and got out of there, because I knew from my first round in the dark that I had about 4 minutes to get out!!!! I ended the phone conversation and washed up and got out of there.... Luckily, NO ONE came in........

For those of you who know me, THIS WOULD ONLY HAPPEN TO ME!!!!!!!! I laughed so hard, and I am still laughing hysterically as I type.....

I am sure some one will think... "O my goodness, How inappropriate for his blog"....to those people I say..... "Haven't you ever had to go?????" Have a great weekend!!!!
