fun quote of the week

in the hospital bathroom....

more-hygenic-than-i-cousin: "wait! don't put your purse down! there's shit all over the floor!"

far too un-germophopic and confused me: "what?"

more-hygenic-than-i-cousin: "it's true! i read an article that said that every time a toilet flushes, shit flies out and gets all over the floor!"

i live in new york. i can't even consider this fact or any like it or i'll go insane! already i've lost the luxury of sitting down on the subway platform benches because they are supposedly infested with bedbugs. more on that pleasant subject later.

so...my friend (friend happens to have her PHD in infectous disease)told me (stall to stall, on a drunken night out)that using the cowboy hats (toilet seat covers)is a complete waste of time due to the fact that urine is streile. not sure how this fits in on the hygenic scale, just wanted to put in my two cents.

I DON'T CARE...IT MAKES ME FEEL BETTER!!! AND, ABBIE, I BET THAT LITTLE FACTOID ISN'T TRUE ANYWAY!!!

I have heard what Abbie has heard--really just a waste of trees. Also, our skin is a pretty good, tougher-then-we-think barrier. Really we should all just work on our leg muscles and do some squats. Ohhh, so looking forward to potty training two girls and negotiating public bathrooms with them!!!!

Just wait Kim, they'll want to try every single bathroom you pass...oh joy!

Texas T-shirts: use 'em because pee is sterile, but crap is not! So when you're flushing and crap is launching onto the seat YUCK!!!

Kim....I can give you some tips on the public bathrooms and how to keep them from touching anything.

Squat away, but don't squat and pee on your leg, like I did one time. That really sucks to walk around with pee on your pants.
