Imagine if you will, a highway….a seemingly normal
looking highway, yet something is just not right. Two cars and one U-haul travel together down
this road. Their intention: to get past
Richmond, VA. But little do they know,
they are about to enter into…..The PeePee Zone.
My family and close friends will tell you that I
have to pee…a lot…and usually at the most inopportune moments. In this particular case, we were doing the
1000 mile drive from Orlando to Pennsylvania.
It was the second day. Everyone
was tired and cranky. We made a gas,
drink, and pee stop somewhere in rural Virginia. My drink of choice? Starbucks Double Shot…..wrong choice!
I don’t think we were back on the road more than
thirty minutes when the urge hit me. I
tried to fight it. We were nearing the
city of Richmond and I knew that making a pit stop was not an option. I squirmed uncomfortably in my driver’s
seat. Then I knew it was inevitable….pee
was going to happen; my bladder hurt worse than when I had my ultrasound during
pregnancy. I called my mom who was in the car ahead of me to let her know that
we HAD to stop. No, I could not hold
it. No, we could not get off at an exit
and hope to find a bathroom. We had to
stop NOW!
So she pulled over on the side of I-95 and I jumped
out of the car. Luckily, growing up in South Jersey taught me how to pee
anywhere! So I opened both passenger side doors in order to shield my family
from witnessing my act. I am lucky that
I got my shorts down in time. Ahhhhh, so
much better…..but wait.....NO TOILET PAPER!
NO PAPER TOWEL! NO NAPKIN! Drip dry it is!
Although peeing on the side of the road on a major
highway is not the weirdest place I have pee’d (y’all are just going to have to
continue following this blog to hear that one), it is a memory that my family
still jokes about today!
My question to you dear readers and friends: Where is the weirdest place you have pee’d?
