Strange gym outing

Because I can't seem to get the gumption to go any other time of the day, I spend my lunch hour at the gym. Usually it's a fairly uneventful experience with the most out-of-the-ordinary event being a gaggle of high school girls taking over the showers just as I need them and I'm already running late to get back to work.

But today, was a different story. There were two experiences I could have done without during my daily gym excursion today. I'm not sure which was more disturbing, but I can tell you that I know which one I found more amusing.

The first incident happened just before leaving the locker room. I hate discovering I have to pee 5 minutes into my run, so I've made it a habit to use the restroom before heading out. Imagine my surprise when I sat on a wet toilet seat. First of all....EWWWW. Second, how does that even happen in a women's restroom? Or maybe I don't want to know.

The second incident occurred on my way back into the locker room when I was confronted with a woman blow drying her rear end. I'm not kidding. There she was, standing in front of the mirror, towel around her waist, with the head of the blow dryer blowing warm air up the back of the towel. I decided she might be offended if I started laughing right here, but it was SO hard not to. I just didn't know what would possess someone to blow dry their butt with a COMMUNAL blow dryer.

But at least I missed the gaggle of girls today...

Lol...that is SOOO funny!!! But oh my gross...who does that!?!? With a communal blow dryer!? Nast!! But it's still hilariously funny, especially since I never use those! Thank goodness!

OK, I'm my mother's daughter, as my first thought was, "why didn't you put down a seat cover?" and if seat cover not available, you should have used the "squat" position (which I have never mastered)! I have a routine when entering a public stall: check that the door will latch, check for TP, check for seat cover, if no seat cover, wipe seat with TP (because of the aforementioned lack of squat prowess). Yes, I take longer than most folks, but I never have a wet butt! Oh! Maybe that's why she needed the dryer!

First off, good for you for going to the gym! Second, ewww! I don't even know how one could explain the second incident.

ON THE WAY HOME TODAY, AT THE SAN DIEGO AIRPORT. IN THE REST ROOM WAS A MAN OPENING HIS SUIT CASE, HE WAS DRESSED BUSINESS LIKE IN A SUIT AND TIE. AND ON THE TOP OF THE CASE WERE SOME JEANS. THINKING HE WANDED MORE CASUAL DRESS TO TRAVEL I DID MY BUSINESS AND WHEN I TURNED HE WAS THERE SLIPPING ON THE JEANS AND WAS WEARING NO UNDERWEAR! I THINK A GOOD SUIT SHOULD INCLUDE SOME OR AT LEAST USE A STALL TO CHANGE DON'T YOU?
