You left your coffee cup.....

People forget where they leave things. It happens to us all. You set something down in an unusual place and forget to pick it back up.
Yesterday, someone left their coffee cup in the men's room. Here at work. They left it at lunch. The cleaning people have left it alone. It's just sitting there on the sink counter. After a few hours, it started producing bubbles. It could be a science experiment. It could be a terrorist attack. Our crack security people either don't check the restrooms or they also ignored it.
I'm leaving before the headlines read "TERRORIST LEAVES BUBBLING COFFEE CUP IN MEN'S ROOM. NO ONE NOTICES UNTIL IT IS TOO LATE".

Update! I left yesterday before the bubbling coffee cup exploded. Today, I got a better look at it. It is still sitting there. It quit bubbling. I'm not so sure of the cup. It has a southwestern theme to it. It has the classic desert sunset on it. With a silhouetted cowboy. And his horse. Except the cowboy is KNEELING before the horse. I don't know if he is worshiping the horse. Maybe it is a Brokeback Mountain type of cup. Could be, with the sunset rainbow colors and all. And the cowboy looks to be either begging forgiveness for using the "whip", or he's proposing marriage.
