Okay, so I have been debating on whether to include an entry of this kind because honestly I feel like an idiot for what I am about to tell you, but I cannot help but find it funny!
I was up in the library doing my usual all nighter studying for my comprehensive in my favorite subject of all time, Theoretical Foundations of Communication Research. Anyway, I was so thrilled to study the rhetorical analysis of Aristotle’s greatest works that I needed to go use the restroom…taking a study break…no big deal, right?
I got up from my desk at the fourth floor (supposedly the most quiet floor of the library) to walk over the bathroom which is near where the stairwell is. So I basically was on the other end of the library. So it was a good long walk for my thoughts to meander through my mind going over my latest favorite theory. I believe it was the semiotic triangle. Anyway, I was nevertheless very deep in thought as if I was sitting in the cave analogy of Plato’s own thoughts himself.
I walked into the bathroom, and I noticed a quick change in the design of the floor plan of the bathroom. Auburn had taken out all the stand up urinals in the men’s bathroom and replaced them with stalls. At my frustration in this new architecture magical feat, my deep thoughts were interrupted because I had to hassle with opening the stall door in order to do my business. When finished, I was about to walk out of the bathroom when I noticed a unique box on the wall. I had never seen anything quite like this in a men’s restroom. Then it hit me like a Mike Tyson punch in the stomach….
I was in the women’s restroom all along. Fortunately, my leisurely activities washing my hands and all were not interrupted by any cordial guests. I slowly walked out of the door as if I was 007 sneaking into a secret mission. In the best awareness of my obviously observant personality, I do not think anyone saw me but me, and then I laughed at myself because even though very idiotic I have to admit it was very hilarious.
classic :)
