Potty Talk

i never thought i would be posting about "potty talk" i mean i am NOT in the midst of potty training anyone and Jordan has forbidden me from sharing ANYTHING that could possibly be deemed "private, not for public" on the blog about her soooooo...this is about ME (lucky you)

Paul and i are in the market shopping in the produce dept. picking up some "Broccoli Woky" (cut perfectly, bagged and ready to toss in the wok) when a cute blond in her 20's (CB20's) comes up to us...

CB20's: can you help me? i have a question about avocados
Me: sure
CB20's: if i am making dinner on Wednesday how should i pick out the avocados?
Me: well just try and pick some that aren't too squishy and you should be OK
(and then it hits me, this horrible smell, someone farted and it was NOT me)
CB20's: (not seeming to notice the stench) great, thanks i will do that! i appreciate your help!

as soon as she is out of ear shot i look at Paul and say....cuz i CAN'T not say SOMETHING:

Me: dude, she totally farted
Paul: really are you sure?
Me: unless it was YOU
Paul: no it wasn't me (and it hits him) whoa, that's bad!!!

we kind of shake our heads and gag a little and go on shopping...

yea we are totally mature like that.

we get home and i am unloading the groceries and Paul is standing there helping and i smell something...BAD...the same smell i smelt in the market and CB20's was NOT in my kitchen so i say:

Me: YOU DID fart in the market!!!
Paul: ew no, i really didn't, why would i lie
Me: well it smells the same and it was NOT me
Paul: oh yeah i smell that too
(then i realize it is the Broccoli Woky)
Me: oh my gosh it's the Broccoli Woky!!
Paul: (sniffs it) oh yea it totally is!
Me: (realizing it was NOT CB20's) OH NO! she is probably thinks it was ME!! AND now she is probably home blogging about it. (i just pray she did not have a camera phone to take a pic of the "farter" in the market)

oh man...i. am. totally. lame.

THEN later that night we decide to go to Denny's...yea you heard me, fine dining. We order and then Paul gets up to go wash his hands. we are seated close to the bathroom so i can see him walk in and out of the bathroom. when he gets back he reports:

Paul: they have auto sensor hand soap dispensers
Me: cool (not really cool, but how am i suppose to respond?)
Paul: yea BUT you have to turn on the water AND crank the paper towel dispenser, so what's the point?
Me: yea, you are all about the germs...you need help (OK i was just thinking it i actually said:) hmm weird (cuz again, what should my response have been?)

and i got up and went to the bathroom to wash my hands and came back and we enjoyed a lovely meal at Denny's. as we were finishing our meal i noticed a girl walking to the bathroom and was shocked as i saw her enter the wrong door...well i was shocked for a minute and then i came to realization the i HAD USED THE MEN'S ROOM!! i had gone in, washed my hands and came right back out and NO ONE said anything to me. i told Paul what happened and he just LAUGHED at me, he had not noticed.

wow. i. REALLY. am. lame.

LOL! THis post cracked me up! You truly are hilarious! That is so something I would do at the grocery store with my hubby. FUNNY! Hope you didn't eat the broccoli woky! YUCK! And then the Denny's story was great!! Again, something I totally would do. I have the worst juju!

NOBODY said...

I didn't know you were a produce expert! Do you know how to pick a good watermelon?

You aren't lame, but you are a great subject for blogging.

I went into a men's bathroom once at a movie theater. I walked in, saw two men washing their hands. I glanced at them, thought, "How RUDE, this is a women's restroom!" and was about to even get indignant when another man rounded the corner zipping us his pants. I stopped cold, suddenly realizing my 8 month pregnant self could POSSIBLY be wrong. I backed out. Smiling the whole time.

You are sol hilarious! You really are. I have totally done that with the bag of broccoli before and tried to blame it on Zac. I love that you used the men's bathroom. THAT cracked me up!

Sarah said...

Too funny! Glad to know there are other couples out there who have the same level of conversations with each other, as my husband and I do! Both stories had me laughing out loud! Thanks for the early morning giggle! Great way to start a Saturday!

PS...I've been stalking your blog for a while. (but I think this is the first time I've come out and commented.) Long enough that I can't say for sure who I found you through...most likely Crazy Mama though!

Leslie said...

Love your stories...Too funny!!

Pam said...

ha ha ha ha ha - thanks for the laugh. I didn't think you could top the broccoli story, but I was wrong!

Crazymamaof6 said...

COL (cackle out loud) and i was dying Broccoli does reek. so do strawberries sometimes.

SuperCoolMom said...

I'm laughing so hard about your Brocky Woky Farts! That is soooo funny. My huge, Mexican BIL once rushed into the Women's room. An old lady called him on it, but he was in the middle of the Deed and couldn't leave. He has us in tears when he tells the story!

Lisa said...

Love this post. I'll never look at Broccoli Woky the same again!

Keli said...

Oh.My.Gosh! This same thing happened to me a little while ago. I mean the broccoli, not the mens room, although I've come close a few times.

But broccoli totally does smell like a fart! Like a bad fart. Which I guess is appropriate, since look what it does to the GI tract, no?

Good story, good story.

Raimi said...

You are cracking em up! thanks for the giggles today! Hope you are having a great weekend!

Debbie Yost said...

You didn't notice the urinals hanging on the walls? You crack me up.

ConverseMomma said...

Don't know what broccoli woky is but I do know I will never buy it, now. LOL on the men's room.

sheri said...

Hilarious!!! Dh and I always say that broccoli smells like butt. (well, we don't use that word. we're classy like that) And I agree w/crazymom...strawberries do too. Which is odd because they taste DIVINE.
And I'm pimp (peeing in my pants) at the bathroom story. Someone's probably blogging about the "lady who used the men's restroom" as well.

No Cool Story said...

#2 story; NO.WAY.
:D BWAHAHAHAHA!
(And ewwww, men's rooms, urinals :P)

Cecily R said...

Farts AND the men's room!! You just can't get a post better than that!!! I love potty talk!!

Crystal said...

All in one day?? Thats just too perfect!

MomOf3 said...

Too funny!! I have walked into a men's room before. Not fun! :)

Tiff said...

Oh My! I am laughing so hard right now! That was totally funny! Thanks for the laugh!

common mom said...

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! LMAO!!! Thanks for the giggles :-) I walked in to the wrong bathroom at work here once . . . now ever time I go in, I do a quick check to confirm I'm in the right one . . . pink tile, no urinals . . . good to go :-)

imbeingheldhostage said...

Tears shooting from my eyes! I have so gone into the wrong bathroom before (ok, a few times) but the worst was when I went into the men's dressing room... in the Temple!

Shamelessly Sassy said...

my husband breaks wind in the grocery store and totally blames it on me all of the time.
