Below is something I wrote in an email to a friend, and I guess it’s something that I think the world at large needs to read. I apologize for the crassness.
About the piss: I was typing my response e-mail and stood up to do something mundane, then I had an additional thought and found myself typing but standing up, bent over the keyboard. That’s when the piss-impulse slammed into my internal nethers. I don’t think it was only the change in my body’s position that triggered it. It probably was also my focus on doing one thing and then my mind moving on to address the next prioritized task: the impending backlog of urine threatening to jam up my kidneys. I’m not a great multi-tasker…typical male wiring. But I did piss standing up. Proudly.
