How many of us are secretly addicted?
I was rushing around this morning hoping to get to work earlier so I’d have a good start as next week I’m going on vacation (the whole darn week) and I can’t wait, as this is the first real holiday since I was diagnosed with Ovarian Cancer in December of 07 and had my surgery January 18th (who’s keeping track of those infamous days) be assured it’s me as every appointment with my oncologist I celebrate being cancer free. However there I go again getting off my intended subject because I have so much to write I wish I could do this all day long however, we know I have a day job therefore this will be quick and when I confess the addiction many of us share I’m wondering if I’m alone or are there other friends (You) who could confess here to the same quandary.
Thus this picture will tell it all and I’m hoping when you stop by today (isn’t that positive thinking) you’ll enlighten us with your embarrassing moments and agree we all should step back, analyze where and when it’s not appropriate to do this deed and remember what I secretly confessed, I’m an offender and by coming out and admitting it I’m hoping I can break this awful habit, do you agree and are you willing to share your story? Mine well I was talking to a client and I forgot where I was and yes I flushed and I know he heard and I could have died however graciously neither of us ever mentioned what had just occurred and I was hoping the whole thing would just go away did this ever happen to you?
lol! i too am guilty of this, although i haven’t ever had clients, talking on the phone while sitting on the toilet has been a common thing for me. thanks for opening up this subject so we can all get it out in the open and fess up to it. i feel so relieved that i don’t have to keep this as a secret any longer…hehehe.
you have an awesome day my friend…hugz!
I just don’t know what to say. Seriously, I really don’t.
im guilty of this hahaha:D
oh God, ms. dorothy, is anybody SPARED from this at all??? hahahahaha!!!
got few bloopers in my life, why can’t i think any of them at the moment! but one things for sure,you’re definitely not alone, ma’am.
I am laughing at myself because I read this and looked at the picture (with a magnifying glass no less) and was trying to figure out what the addiction was and what the guy had in his hands. I thought are they knives, is it a magazine, what is it?
Okay, I know, I know. I’m totally out of the loop on this one. So this is my confession.
I finally read down to PJ’s comment where she wrote about cell phones and laughed my head off because I FINALLY understood what the guy was holding.
I have so far avoided a cell phone. I dread the thought of having one. Work keeps me online all day long with hundreds of emails a day, and the phone rings constantly and I screen all calls and have to delete all forwards in my email to be able to see the real mail, and then as you KNOW I am so slow at getting back to people due to the sheer number of emails and soooooooo…..
When I am away from the computer, phone (at my desk) I just want to be in silence. I want to sit under a tree or with my husband and just “BE”. And be fully in the moment of where I am. I want to feel the Earth beneath my feet and hear the birds and have NO thoughts at all.
BUT that said, once I start to travel with my book, I may get a cell but will not give out the number to anyone but my husband. LOL!!!
)
NOW, with that exposed, I will say this: YOU are a HOOT!!! It is why I love you. You are SO human, funny, warm and just precious.
Thank you all for your wonderful comments as this was just for fun because yes I have carried my phone into the bathroom and I often wonder where does it end and oh
Robin I am so impressed that you (up to this moment) to have lived without a cell phone is amazing as I feel mine is my enemy, too many minutes and too much of my life wasted on the phone.
Thus, my mission is too change my habits turn off the cell phone after certain times and begin really living life after work (that is after I turn off work at a determined time) I’m working on that..anyway I wanted to bring smiles and it seems I did so thank you all for your comments and once in awhile I want to act silly not take myself so seriously.
And PJ your comments are a hoot..I love watching for them..and everyone else you guys made me smile every time I checked this post out.
My very best…Dorothy
Ahoy! Texting while pooping!
No, I have never committed this heinous crime (chuckles) but…I have texted whilst brushing my teeth!!
Now that’s talent.
Thank you so much for your comments on my blog. They seem so sincere, and I appreciate each one of them.
As the Queen would *never* (ahem) do something like this, I will admit that my eldest son is WAY guilty of this. He doesn’t care who he’s talking to, how loud it is, or who hears him do what…and when I tell him the other person probably doesn’t want to hear him, his response? “Mom, everybody does it…they’re comparing notes. They’ll get over it!” I cannot roll my eyes far enough into the back of my head. lol
Thank you for your sweet comments on my blog – you’re a doll and I appreciate the uplift you give me. I feel the same way about yours! xx
Hi! I quite often talk on the phone while having a number one. Unfortunately the other day my son caught me out when he heard the sounds of you know what, and, hang up in disgust. But considering the toot is where I do my most serious thinking, it the most perfect place to have a chat! Have fun on your vacation!
Everybody has his own addiction. The only embarrassing thing about your addiction was that you forgot that you were conversing with somebody on the phone. When you inadvertently flashed the toilet, the person on the other side of the phone surely heard that but did not say anything out of civility. We just haver to be more careful and aware of what we are doing to avoid future embarrassments. Thanks for the post. God bless you always.
All THE GUYS are guilty of this. But we will say, never in a public restroom. That’s even too much for us!
That’s the problem since phones have been mobile…we forget and wander around talking or answer them when we should ignore them!! Makes for many awkward moments!! With a fixed phone it never happened..well not unless you had one in the toilet!! Lol!
I once had to rush to loo during a teleconference meeting and was called on (I used mute until then) just as, well, let’s say the bottome dropped out. Ker-PLOP! Hey, I’m on the throne so much that without a cell phone I would NEVER get any real work done. Well…oh, nevermind.
Oh my gosh your comments are funnier then my post I’m so glad this is not exclusive to anyone that most of us confess to being guilty of such a silly deed.
Thanks again for all your honesty I’m still smiling and it’s almost two am in the morning the humor is wonderful.
My very best and I hope unlike me most of you are sleeping…
Dorothy from grammology
Dorothy! This is so funny. Thanks for making my day. I am also guilty hahahahaha
psst…did you know that you were my site of the week…hehehe
Absolutely, I definitely have an addition to blogging…
Oh man…you have all just put a smug look on my adult children’s faces as they have all done this while talking to me and I am like….what the heck are you doing talking to me when you are in the bathroom…have I not taught you better manners than that…I swear you have seriously no class…..yikes
So I see that I still have not been let out of the school of what is deemed normal as opposed to proper etiquette yet.
I have just always felt that there was a time and place for everything
I cannot think of a moment that would even compare!
Too funny
~D~
I’m always a bit surprised to hear what sound to be serious business-related phone conversations in public restrooms. While the talkers might be able to control when they, themselves, flush, they are at the flushing mercy of complete strangers (and whatever they had for lunch)!
funny, and yes I admit I have done the same only with friends. It is usually out of habit to flush and too late remember that sound travels… oh well they are understanding.
