WHERE IS MISTER YOSHI?
Walking downtown --- nature called. Now, when nature calls pour moi that means I have approx. 5 minutes to find a can! So, being the resourceful man that I am, I ran/walked to the nearest hotel. This happened to be a rather elite hotel. And, being me, I could not locate the restrooms easily --- as panic began to set in and I scurried about the lobby looking for signage leading me to plumbed salvation --- I was stopped by a classy, but severe hotel worker.
"May we help you, sir?
"Oh, yes! I am waiting for one of your guests, but am in need to using a restroom. Can you direct me?"
"Well, our restrooms are reserved for our guests and their guests"
"Uh, huh --- I am a friend of one of your guests and he will back in the hotel diner bussing tables if you give me anymore attitude. Now, get over yourself and point me to the restrooms, please!"
...it worked!
"I apologize, the restrooms are located behind the elevator banks. May I have the name of our guest to alert that you have arrived and are waiting?"
...running/walking toward the back of the elevator banks -- as the perfectly pressed woman was trying to keep up with me.
"No need. I just spoke with him on my cell. He will be down in a few. He is on an important business call."
"Oh, I see. Well, I will just give him a quick ring. What is his name?"
The Men's Room!!!!! Yes!!!!
"Mr. Yoshi"
About 20 minutes later after losing half of my body weight in the posh restroom. ...well, not quite -- but wouldn't that be cool!???!
"Sir? There does not appear to be a Mr. Yoshi staying with us. In fact, we are unfamiliar with Mr. Yoshi's name."
Shit.
"Hmmmm... Isn't this the Four Seasons?"
You could cut the tension with a butter knife...
"Sir! This is NOT the Four Seasons!"
"Oh NO!!!! I have to run! Mr. Yoshi is going to be soooo pissed at me!!! I knew this place didn't look upscale enough! Bye!"
Running out the door as the door man holds it open smiling blandly, I can feel the Insulted Hotel Lady steaming in the lobby! As they say -- "shit happens"
