What do you tell others you gotta do when you go #2?

Excuse me but I have:

  • Two large, brown dogs barking at my back door
  • To drop the kids off at the pool
  • To take the Browns to the Super Bowl
  • To cop a squat

I don't say this as I am a lady (ha) but...
Gotta go lay some pipe.

That always cracks me up

I have to go call so and so.
Or so and so is calling.

It's a surreptitious code to use if in public with my fiancé.

Super Bowl. Browns. Funny.

I usually don't announce it.

I work in a place where I'm always around clients. Luckily I work with the mentally ill. Most of them know why, if I take off running suddenly.
But I usually add in a funny comment:

Uhoh... that's my cue
You said the magic word... ahhhh (as I'm running)
Or. I guess "whatever snack we served today" doesn't like me!

I announce my need to poop quite often... if I can get a laugh out of myself, it helps :)

geez, you guys are creative. i'm so boring.

"i have to go to the bathroom."

i never elaborate and don't like discussion about it afterwards if i'm in there a while.

Haha I'm in a similar boat working with mentally ill clients, a few of them know exactly what I'm going through and some just know I am sick or have stomach problems. We get some jokes out if it but I'm glad they're understanding as well.

Although I seldom say it these days being in remission but it was something like "Get out of my bathroom, NOW!"

The only one I ever tell is my husband because we share a bathroom. AND...to make sure that if he's having to go at the same time, that he has to hold it.
He also checks if I'm OK so that he can go..lol..pretty much before or after breakfast when I'm waiting to have mine.

The cat announces hers sometimes...but she gets that deer in the headlights look.

The terms could be:
I'm having inklings
I'll be having my poo soon
Where are my glasses and magazine?
I'm crowning...lol.

If I am flaring, I'll tell a client that I might have to use the bathroom at a moment's notice...but that's actually never happened.

to hubby: "I'll be in the library."

to my 7-yr old: "I'm going to the bathroom. Don't get into anything!" because he knows I'll be there for awhile and that's a great time for him to sneak extra snacks or TV.

to my high school students: "Pregnancy." while rolling my eyes and letting them assume I had to pee because I certainly didn't want to let a bunch of freshman know I had poopy problems. (And when I wasn't pregnant I wasn't flaring, so didn't need to leave during class).

I say any number of things, most of which is absolutely obnoxious to try and take the stress of going wayyy more than normal in any social situation. My two favs are:

1. I gotta throw a wicked deuce
2. I'm gonna go piss outta my a.s.s

Usually the look on my face says it all when I gotta go, but often I will yell...."get the hell out of my way, I gotta go"!!
