August Writing Day 29

I watch a lot of decorating shows and one of the things that always bothers me is what people say about the bathrooms. Mainly they say they’re too small. It always makes me wonder what do they plan to do in there?! Throw an elegant dinner party? Have the Queen over for tea? I mean c’mon people! It’s a bathroom! Get over it!

HI ROBIN!

Leech/Leach isn't it? It's been a long time since I watched you on tv, how are you? Resorting to bathrooms of not-quite-as-famous people now?

I hope your paycheck is still... what? This is charity? Wow, I'm very impressed.

This is very cute.

My dear girl! How splendid of you to recognise me! It's the accent, isn't it.

Now now, Bathrooms deserve equal time. We all use them after all.

*whispers*

Don't tell anyone, but I'm hoping to parlay this into a shot at HGTV.

Thanks! ;D

I'm a boy. No carpets in the bathroom.

No wood on my toilet seat. I trust no explanation is necessary.

And I don't have enough Q-Tips to risk banging my head on that thing every time I take a seat.

BUT

it is still better than the bathrooms at Ubisoft Montreal, where the stalls are so small that to close the doors you have to practically stand inside the bowl.

For men, there's the mat-and-wellie-option. Very practical and I highly recommend it.

You can never have too many Q-tips! And it's actually over the tank, not the seat. Your head should be perfectly safe.

I think I'd just leave the door open in that case.

1. Ah, good.

2. Should, yes - but if there is a Thing anywhere near my head, my head will surely find it.

3. Ew. Tempting, but what if it caught on?

I'll make a note of that on your order.

My head does stuff like that when I'm not looking.

You can get used to anything?

Reminds me of a card I saw once:

"You work hard all your life, try to be nice to everyone, and on your Birthday, what's the first thing you get?

[open]

A cold toilet seat."

It would all be for naught if not for the paper dispenser.

Blessings on the paper dispenser!

Civilization would collapse without it!

You mean not everyone carries a bunch of crumpled fast-food napkins in their jacket pocket for those awful 'paper dispenser failure' incidents?

And not everyone has THREE boxes of popcorn in her cupboard in case civilization collapses, either.

Thanks! It makes it even better that you know the room I'm talking about.
