STALL

Traveling down the interstate and needing to use the restroom, I stopped at a rest area. 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 said: "So what are you up to?"

What kind of question is that? At that point, I was thinking this was too bizarre so I said: "Uhhh, I'm like you, just traveling!"

At this point I was just trying to get out as fast as I could when I heard another question.  "Can I come over?"


Ok, this question was just too weird for me but I figured I could just be polite and end the conversation.
I told them, "No..I'm a little busy right now!!!"

Then I heard the person say nervously... "Listen, I'll have to call you back.  There's an idiot in the next stall who keeps answering all my questions."


Cell phones, don't you just love them !
