LOL....you poor thing, you have only recently learned the fine art of 'squatting'. Growing up female, you learn rather quick the fine art of balance, especially as a teenage girl, squatting while drunk, to relieve oneself of all those beers consumed while driving around the countryside

heehee. just be glad you didn't have to poo. I have heard of those toilets before. My friend told me about some co-workers who had just come over from Thailand. One day he went into the restroom and hear a horrible commotion in one of the stalls. It turns out it was one of the little Thai people trying to balance on the outer rim of the bowl trying to squat and not fall over while using the american style toilet. So it seems that our methods confuse them too.

your entry has made me (1) need to use the bathroom and (2) quite grateful not only for my american toilet but also for my seat lift.

That reminds me of my father trying to go in some european and oriental places. He always horrified me with the descriptions. He used to take one of his pants legs off and throw it over his back. Personally, I would never have figured it out.

Hi Leslie, You showed me the picture the other day and talked about it, but the entry in the diary is even better. There is an art to doing the squat. How about a rock and roll tune,"Let's Do The Squat". Love, Karen

Hey MsLeslie, Sorry it took me so long to get back to your note (Apr. 9). I did indeed have tickets for APR 25. Now I have tickets for 'Whenever'. Thanks to the war in Iraq and SARS, Northwest has decided not to charge change fes until May 19th. I just have to have them ticketed by then. I couldn't make Apr 25th because I was called back to work 2 weeks early. So, let me know by May 19 when a good time would be for you when you are in town. I will be off Slope on May 30. And don't worry about not knowing my email. It runs in the family. [email protected]

ROFL! Oh you poor thing! I've found (and I'm a female so I've had to practice this many times on a regular toilet--don't know what to tell you about the Thai facilities) that if you stand backwards (facing the wall), you can get the job done very well. Now, if you are wearing a skirt, it's easy as pie. Pants are harder, but hike up the bottoms and pull down the top and the comode itself will push them out of the way. (Okay, I canNOT believe I am talking about this, rofl!) Take care.
