90. Bathroom Etiquette

When guests need the bathroom, I say it’s broken and I just called the plumber and he’s on the way.

It’s a lie.
The truth is, we haven’t cleaned the bathroom since 1997.

    I always tell folks - if you're coming to see ME, come anytime . . . if you're coming to see the HOUSE - make an appointment. :) well done.

    That might not be a lie. Some plumbers take their time.

    Eeks!Lol!This is so funny.But what if they are staying over?;-)
    I always get paranoid about the cleanliness of my house & of course my bathrooms when people come visiting & woe is me if they visit without notice!And I never ever use other people's bathrooms,unless I am staying there;-)

    My mom always had a fancy bathroom for guests only. We used the crummy one. When my kids were little they'd ask grandma "Are we guests?" This struck my funny bone.

    I didn't seem to land the organizational genes either -- that title goes to my brother. This is pretty funny and totally relevant.
