So, the other day I was telling you about the woman in the locker room who was fighting herself as she got dressed and ready for whatever her post-workout day entailed. Well, let me tell you what I forgot to mention.
The showers at the Y --- let's be clear, this the YMCA not the Ritz. The showers are functional. The water is hot. They provide soap that is so drying to the skin, your thighs will catch fire when if you inadvertently brush them against each other as your walk. But back to the showers. There are eight stalls, four on each side, with two additional handicapped stalls for those persons in need. Each stall comes equipped with the aforementioned soap, in a pump dispenser, an over the spout rack to line up your personal products, and a generic white shower curtain. The curtain is opaque, and if you slide it across the mouth of the stall completely, you'll be totally covered from prying eyes as your wash.
Well, evidently, the curtain was a sticking point for this lady. And when I say sticking point, I mean sticking as in, she claims, the curtain sticks to her body as she's washing. I don't know what kind of personal hygiene acrobatics she's doing while washing possible, but there is NO reason that her body should come in contact with the curtain. At all. Ever. In Life.
Barefoot in the shower stall is gross enough. Having that curtain stick to you? You need to take another shower to get off whatever grossness you brushed up against. C'mon, it's not like they launder those curtains. Have some common sense and just step away from it, lady.
Anyway, she goes on to say that after she was embraced by the curtain once or twice, she simply decided to shower with the curtain open. OPEN!

Why did I have to hear that?
Why did I then have to experience it when I went in to wash up after my workout?!
Oh yeah. I finished my climb to nowhere on the stairclimber. I got my shower supplies from the locker and as I'm coming into the shower area with my towel tucked around me, I stepped up to an empty stall. At least, I thought it was an empty stall -- the curtain wasn't closed! I come nose to nipples with Sticky Curtain Lady.

ReplyDeleteIt was a whole lot of things. . .
DeleteLOL and Eww! I thought of you yesterday because I had a gross experience (too nasty to mention here) in the Y locker room, and I wasn't even working out- just passing through after my son's swim class!
ReplyDeleteSeriously, people treat the Y like it's their personal home space. I need to just get in, work out, and get home.
