Ring Ring, Flush

You know, I've carried my cell phone into the bathroom before. Heck, it has even rung while I was in the bathroom before. But never, in my five-year history of owning a cell phone, while staring at that pearly white urinal with the pink urinal cake and blue rubber splash mat, have I felt the need to *answer* my cell phone. Here is the rough transcript of the conversation I overheard yesterday:

*obnoxious ring tone*
"Hello?"
*flush*
"I'm still at work."
*water splashing*
"Yeah, I'm leaving soon."
*zipper*
"Okay, love you, bye."

In other news, we're shopping for a new cell phone plan. Any suggestions?
