If the choo-choo train is on the way and I have to drop the kids off at the pool, pretty much any port in a storm will do, as long as it’s not wet or crusty.

What happens when you go to use one of “your” stalls and it is the only being occupied at the time? Do you wait?

Also, how do Ruth, Charity, and Debbie feel about sharing their blog entry with you talkin about toilets? :O)

I always go for the handicapped stall, because it gives me a little more breathing room to do my bidness… also, I like sitting up a little higher like I’m driving an SUV… but i do tend to agree with Scott.. any port in a storm 🙂

Fun fact..the very first stall in the bathroom is always the cleanest. Research as been done that folks like to be as far away from the door or the sinks for more privicy. Thus..the first stall is used less and hence has fewer germs. Just a fun FYI!!

Well first to answer Jenna’s question, I will use a different stall and not wait if mine is taken, but my instinct is to go to the same stall. But to Johnny, I was once in a bathroom when someone went into the handicapped stall. A woman in a wheelchair came in and screamed bloody murder about how it should only be used by the handicapped. That was uncomfortable and now I’m self-conscious about it and try not to most of the time.

And to Joey, I love that tidbit of info and will use it now to determine new stalls to use. Thanks!

I love you Katie but your a freak. There are drugs you can take for that sort of thing. So…I read somewhere at one time in the not too distant past that the stall with the least germs is the first stall since everyone skips it assuming that everyone else uses it. Personally I use which ever one isn’t completely wrecked.

KT, every time I think you can’t possibly get any weirder, you prove me wrong again. Your most-beloved bathroom stalls? What’s next, an ode to your favorite boogers? “Phlegm: A Reminiscence, by Katie Toft.”

Anyhooo, you asked, so here goes: I did have a favorite bathroom at BMGF. The handicapped stall in the downstairs bathroom, across from the receptionist area. I never used the bathroom in Trainer Alley, too much danger. No one ever used the downstairs one, so you could head down there in the morning with the newspaper and a cup of coffee. Peace and quiet, and no need to worry about courtesy flushes.

Best of all, since it was so secluded, you could always successfully leave the bathroom without having to run into another trainer, who would then associate you with that godawful stench and–

Whoops, I said the quiet part loud again.

Lordie lordie lordie. You took a page out of Peelio’s book, didn’t you? Talkin’ about poopin’ stalls. Gross. Yeesh.

But, to answer your question: remember Trainspotting? Yeah, I always look for one of those.

Happy Birthday to the girls, and I hope you find YOUR favorite stall too! I live so close to work, that if the need arises so to speak, I will just come home and do it in the privacy of my own train-squatting.
