A Different Kind of Heresy

 

My definition of heresy for the following purposes is doing something I don’t normally do, going against my own values or normal way of doing things.

I’ve never been a talk in the public bathroom kind of guy.  Let’s do what we came here to do and then leave.  This Friday, I broke that rule.

I rolled into the the restroom at my work.  There’s two urinals with ample dividers, then a row of toilets, then another set of two urinals.  If you’re facing the urinals, the lavatories are behind you and the in and out doors are on the side.

I step up the the urinal on the left to take a piss.  Moments later my boy from tech rolls in next to me.  Silence.  Seems we both can’t pee.  He says, “I can’t wait to get out of here.”

“Man I feel the same way,” I reply with a profound honesty.  

The pee finally starts.  Seems just standing there was making us pee shy.

I finish.  Wash my hands and go.  “Aight, have a good weekend,” I say.

“You too.”

And that was that.
