How to Survive Life in the Suburbs

Wish I hadn’t done that.

in Uncategorized on 06/07/09


I really wish I hadn’t
…Breathed in so much of that cleaner when I was scrubbing down the shower. Little Dizzy…
…Bought myself a new lipstick, and when I brought it home discovered it’s my Grandma’s favorite shade. Sexy.
…Forgotten to change from my bright pink crocs into my sensible sandals before I hopped in the car to dash off to the end of year field trip. I’m sooo stylin!
…Hadn’t made it my personal mission to finish the brownies before the hubby got home. UG…I guess you can eat too much chocolate.
….Started to clean out the pantry today. What a MESS!
…Tried to remove that towel rack all by myself. Those two gaping holes in the wall are going to be hard to explain. Perhaps he won’t notice?
…Backed out of the garage so fast. Who needs TWO side view mirrors anyway. One should work just fine.
…Said yes to that last glass of Chardonnay. Head hurty.

Do you think I can blame it all on the fact that I nearly poisoned myself with toxic cleaning fumes??
Gulp. Good thing he REALLY loves me:)

      Hi. I’ve had similar incidents with lipstick, chocolate and car mirrors… Definitely blame it on the toxic cleaning chemicals!

      Wow, time to switch to the non toxic stuff, baking soda, white vinegar, distilled water work fabulously and don’t leave you wheezing and “high”. Poor baby.

      Ha Ha. At least your shoes matched!
      I almost killed myself one day smelling pool acid. I was afraid I was going to pass out and no one was home to help me!!!
      one side mirror? Join the club. 😉

      Take a second glass of the medicinal. It will put off the head hurty until tomorrow!!! Then you can enjoy another calamitous day all over again. Now there’s something to look forward to!!

      Try it without the chemicals, see if it makes any difference, my guess would be that it doesn’t!

      Blame is on a stray dog that jumped out at you! Stick to the lie.

      If you’re dizzy, then clearly you didn’t consume enough chocolate relative to chardonnay. You’re fine, I’m sure!

      oh man – I back out and broke my mirror off once too – My hubbie is fined if he ever brings it up to me again though!
