Well Ain't That Some $hit-- Trapped in the Bathroom on Vacation 

 True Funny Stories

     I'm back from the beach. Have I got something to tell you!  Be careful not to be eating or drinking or need to go pee when you read this.   

   We vacationed at Camping USA in Destin, Florida.  On the last day of our trip just prior to pulling out to head home I decided to make one last pit stop.   Mind you, I had not used the campground restrooms a single time the entire trip UNTIL TODAY!    I walked over to the bathrooms directly across from our campsite.  These bathrooms were set up so each one is its own individual bathroom complete with toilet, shower, and sink.  They lock and each has a window.   I locked the door behind me, and took one last pee before hitting the road.  I went to leave. Lo and behold the D-A-M-N door would NOT  unlock.    I remained calm and tried several maneuvers to get it to work.   Finally I could see that whatever was wrong, it wasn't going to budge.  I gave up and walked over to the try the window.  I go the window up about 18 inches and was about to shout over to a man sitting 50 feet from me at his campsite reading a book.  I was going to ask him to go get the manager or get me some help.   I am looking past him at Kenny making final preparations for us to depart.  He is about 200 feet away. Just far enough to not be able to hear me well.

     It hit me that I could probably get out the window myself despite it being a rather tight squeeze.

I don't know what came over me exactly.   I just said heck with it and went about trying to free myself.     I climbed up on a chair and laid down across the window sill and looked down. There was a cement floor under me and a low bench.    I began squeezing myself out the window.  It was working.  All at once the utter ridiculousness of this situation hit me.   I should never have let my mind go there for  that is when I lost it. I began laughing, and I went limp as a dish rag.   I was out of control of myself.   I did not fall, but it is a wonder.  I'd squeeze through a little further and try to climb down and laugh a little harder.  I'd have to stop and just lie there trying to calm down so I could continue. I was committed now.  Halfway in. Halfway out and teetering on the brink of the window ledge.  Not exactly lightning fast was I?   At last I managed to get down and skipped off toward the camper and my family who was waiting on me.   As I trotted away I heard the man's wife come out of their camper. He had been oblivious to this whole thing, but not her. 

As I trotted away I heard her gasp to him "Oh good God! Did she just climb out  the bathroom window?!??!!" 

   I turned in her direction and yelled at her "Yes I did!" and had one final fit of convulsive laughter as I left.   

    Sometimes I cannot believe the things that happen to me.   I can't make this stuff up. 

It is worth mentioning that Kenny was angry that this happened to me.. well, once he stopped laughing.  He went by the office to let them know the first stall bathroom door was locked from the inside.  He told them what happened to me.  They said "Oh, yes. We've had some trouble with that door." and offered us a free nights stay.  👀

Below is a video that will make you laugh.. a lady out shopping who loses her keys and decides to climb in her window since she needs to pee.   Her boobs fall out. She falls and even pees on herself.  LOL
