Bathroom Conversations

Obviously women go to the bathroom in pairs when possible so they can talk about the people they're with in private. This is a transcript of a conversation I overheard (and I say that with tongue in cheek since the two of them thought the 2 feet and short tile wiall separating them necessitated raising their voices. Both women were over 60 and were a mother and daughter. 
Daughter (D): Dad is being a real pain!
Mom (M): I know! All he had to do was shower and put on a clean hat. He's been driving me crazy lately.
D: Because of the lot?
M: yes. He just put $3000 worth of gravel down there and now he wants to build a slab.
D: why?
M: he's just like Kennedy - convinced if he's not building something he's going to die.
D: I have hemorrhoids from being constipated.
M: Me too. When we get home we'll each have a 1/2 cup of some magnesium citrate and that'll fix us (along with a bunch of cramps....but I didn't add that)
D: what does he do down at the lot?
M: I think he just uses it to get away from me. He could be working up at the house. The window is broken and (lengthy monologue about all the people who were going to fix the window but haven't shown up).
M: He expects me to come down there and live in that little trailer. He thinks I should just go without my oxygen while I'm there.
By this time the daughter has come out of the stall and is washing her hands. I've gone into the vacated stall and don't see Mom but she exits and promptly leaves WITHOUT WASHING HER HANDS!

Bathrooms are fun..... People are crazy.....
