The Closer You Get The Worse It Gets

I get this a lot since I am constantly on the road traveling for business. You gotta go. I mean, you gotta pee. You start to feel it coming on, but you prolong it just a bit. I mean, I gotta go, but it's not dire. I can wait until the next exit or the next rest area. Just a wee bit farther, man. You can do it. But finally there is no return. You just HAVE to go. You can feel the pressure building, your eyes are starting to float. There is no more waiting. You finally pull off and find yourself a parking spot. You get out and start heading for the restroom. It's bad. You REALLY gotta go. I mean, you've waited a bit longer than you probably should have. But, as you walk toward the building it gets worse. I mean, it gets WORSE. Now you REALLY have to go. You are about to burst. By the time you actually get to the urinal (or the stall if you are a lady) you are just about to the point that you are going to pee yourself. The closer you get the worse it gets. I wonder why that is? I mean, you are ALMOST there. You are GIVING IN. Why is it that by the time you actually get to the toilet you are fishing around your belt and buttons like a blind man trying to read a map?

I also experience that. It is my habit to go to the bathroom before any trip, regardless of how I feel with my bladder. I just have to be sure that it is empty.

@porwest I know that the plastic bottle is more convenient for that purpose. Thank you for the idea that maybe I have to use that next time.

@Alexandoy Now see, me? I prefer just releasing into a plastic bottle. Preferably the wider mouth ones...better fit.

I have experienced that. No problem for us boys. There's no restriction to pee anywhere in our place especially under the tree along the street or high way. But we never do it always except for uncontrollable feeling.

We boys DO have it a bit easier I suppose. There HAS been a time or two when I went to the other side and opened the door pretending like I was looking for something. You just whip that bad boy out, do your business and relief is right there. If a cop comes I can put it away just as quick as I whipped it out.

@Nakitakona Not sure if we are being tricky. Just taking advantage of how our anatomy is made.

I hear what your saying.The last time at the truck stop rest room I could not go the smell was horrible and turned me off. But was good to hold till I found a diner or a resturant.No I did not wet my pants.

@amadeo We'd have to confer with some poets out there to confirm.

If I gotta go, smell or no, I will go. Was that a poem?
