Wharton to the MAX.

So today I was at a urinal in a Huntsman bathroom doing my thing when a guy joined me at the next urinal. Usually I like to mind my business by counting the tiles on the wall in front of me or whistling Yankee-Doodle. But then the guy did something unimaginable... he pulled out his Blackberry. That's right, mid-pee this guy is checking emails AND writing emails.

Although this was definitely a little disturbing (and unsanitary), I've got to give the man some props: he is a TRUE Whartonite.

one thing i'm thankful for...

This sounds ridiculous, but one thing I'm very thankful for are disposable toilet cover sheets. You know what I'm talking about, the thin-filmy-flushable paper that you place on the seat before sitting on it. These sheets are a rather new phenomenon that have become quite common in the last couple years or so.

I was thinking about it today as I was sitting on the toilet (sorry for the details)... it's funny how a thin piece of paper 1/10th of a millimeter thick can give us such a sense of security. Some of the filthiest toilets in the world you couldn't pay me to sit on are bearable with some cleaning and the placement of just one disposable sheet. But yes, I'm very thankful for that and for the brilliant man who just got tired of carefully placing strips of toilet paper down before using the toilet.

This is kind of a random post, but I've found that life is so much more pleasant when you are thankful for the little things.

(btw, it's pretty exciting to see comments being left on the posts... so please do!)
