This weekend I uploaded our trip photos but haven't have a chace to sort through them. I still have more trip stories to share in future posts. Like having too much to drink at a winery one night. You'd think by my age I'd know how to control my alchohol consumption, but NOPE! Sad, I know...
Today I'm going to share some more funny incidents from our San Francisco trip but first I wanted to share this text from Saturday night: My son would be the same way. If I told him, "Don't say 'suck me' -- it's not nice" he would have harassed me until he got a real answer. OK, as you probably know by now, any time I see funny, absurd or strange things out in the world, I have a pathological need to share what I see with friends and family: Another friend pointed out that I obviously had to take my phone into the bathroom in order to take the photo. I reminded this person that there is a HUGE difference between a cell phone pic and a phone that is permanently attached to the wall. Every time the toilet flushes all the germs get sprayed on the wall phone. Another scenario--someone has a BM, wipes and then picks up that handset. Bleh. And I bet you a million dollars that the cleaning staff doesn't disinfect the phone when they clean the room... Last photo for today is an example of how my son is much more worldly than I was at his age: By the way, I could tell ZERO DIFFERENCE between the Nestle water and the Evian water. My son may be a tad bit spoiled.

It wasn't that long ago that cell phones couldn't take photos so carrying a camera into the bathroom to take a picture of the weird phone next to the toilet wouldn't have been that weird. And you were just taking a picture. You weren't calling anyone to say, "Hey, guess where I'm calling you from?"

Even now I'll occasionally be in a public restroom and hear a woman in a neighboring stall talk on the phone. It's so tacky. If I'm using the bathroom and the phone rings I DO NOT ANSWER IT! I mean, unless the caller on the other end is bleeding profusely, they can wait a minute or two until I call back. And if they are bleeding profusely, they need to call 911 and not me. Because I have no medical training whatsoever...

Hotels in general freak me out. We went on a weekend getaway to Laughlin and there were BLOOD SPLATTERS on the backside of the curtains in our room. Either someone got murdered to death in there or that was a really messed up game of hide and seek. I do like taking the painting off of the walls and writing stuff on the back of them and then hanging them back up, though.

Yeah, hotel rooms, even the nicest ones can be kind of icky. I would have requested a room change if I found blood spatter anywhere. One of the worst hotels I ever stayed at was a Detroit airport hotel with my husband and son when our flight was cancelled and Delta was forced to pay for our overnight lodging. My son was onlyh 2 1/2 but the first thing he did was walk in the room, point to a bug and say, "BUG!". The carpet was so filthy I took all the bath towels and made a walkway that was clean to walk on. Plus he had no luggage. Did I mention I had a toddler with us? Good times, good times...

How weird it was this weekend to explain to my youngest why he shouldn't use a doctored pic of himself eating a corn cob on his new video blogging page. My oldest had created this tacky pic of his younger brother and then made fun of it (stupid juvenile falatio humor), but my youngest wasn't the wiser.

Wait-- the older boy made a doctored photo of the younger to make it look like he was fellating (spelling?) corn on the cob? That is both evil and hilarious. Boys can be such little shits.

Can I be added to your text list? I can only imagine the absurdity that doesn't get shared on the blog. Thanks for the laughs!

Thanks for the kind words Lydia! You may THINK you want to be added to my text list until you get random insane texts from me at all times of the day and night. People have also complained that I use up all their data plan usage with my photos. Everyone's a critic. However, I do sometimes email people my insanity (so it doesn't use up their cell phone data). I'd be glad to add you. I'll send you a test email shortly (from [email protected]).

You do know about "Evian" spelled backwards, right?

Ha! Yes, I have in fact heard of that. I also heard a comedian once say that it's no coincidence that the threads of a garden hose match up perfectly to the threads of a typical water bottle...

Gina, proof yet again that we are living parallel lives. Please tell me you tried that pizza?!

I desperately wanted to try the pizza but we ran out of time! We passed by there one morning at 10:30 a.m. and there were already construction workers sitting outside eating slices. I was jealous, I have to admit. Now I have a reason to go back someday...

Well, pizza is the next best thing, after sex 8/11/2015 08:13:34 am
I'm surprised they don't have the complimentary coffee pot plugged into the outlet next to the phone. What good's a fecal phone call on the shitter without a nice cup of germy joe to go with it?

Haha! Ewwwww. Right and instead of the little plastic stirrers that are bad for the environment because they get used once and thrown away, instead they should attach a regular metal spoon to the wall with a string. Because they want to be "green" and all...

Pretty sure that spoon will be green soon enough...

Twerla-- you are a woman after my heart! One time I ate a piece of coconut cake that was so good that I told my husband that it was better than sex. And it hurt his feelings a little bit. I guess that phrase doesn't exist in Russian. Then when we were in Napa he ate some lamb chops that were the best he'd ever had. He got an orgasmic look on his face after each bite. I asked him, "Is it better than sex?" and he said yes. Ha.

Spoken Like a True Nut-- you made me laugh out loud. I'm trying not to imagine what the string looks like (Bleeeehhhhhhhhh.....).
