I could start with a back story for this one but I really don't think it needs it. This was by far my most awkward moment to date. Buckle your seat belts and prepare yourself for awkward. Again, I wish I was making this story up but everything you read below is 100% true.
Last night, I entered a stall of a public restroom and closed the door behind me. It took me a good 2 minutes to figure out the locking situation since every door in a public restroom is a jig saw puzzle in which you need to close the door just right to connect the lock to the side of the stall to gain privacy. As I unzipped my jeans I heard my cell phone fall out of my back pocket and when I looked to see where it landed I could not find it anywhere. I continued to look around and saw that it managed to slide underneath the stall divider and into the one next to me landing directly in between the feet of the woman in the neighboring stall. As soon as I saw where it was I said "Oh god....sorry". The woman didn't say a word or even acknowledge that my cell phone was now planted between her feet. I didn't know what to do and didn't want her to step on it or get anything on it so I slowly reached my hand under the stall and grabbed it and slowly slid it back into my stall. She still did not say a word. My hand and cell phone were between her feet and she said absolutely nothing.
I saw her cowgirl boots a few minutes later outside of the restroom so I made sure not to make eye contact in case she recognized my hand and droid incredible. The moral of the story is...don't keep your cell phone in your back pocket when entering a public restroom. It could land in the toilet.....or worse.
