What Stpid Thing Have You Done Today? - Page 6

cirquelover · 05-26-2009, 08:11 AM

I learned a valuable lesson yesterday when doing laundry, never leave the giant economy size bottle of liquid detergent on top of the washer/dryer if you have pets. Needless to say it hit the floor and burst!

Do you know how big of a puddle 170 ounces of liquid detergent is? Trust me, you never want to find out for yourself!

So after using every towel in the house to mop up the slime I realized I couldn't just throw them in the washer or I'd have an even bigger mess on my floor! So after an hour or two of rinsing I finally got them into the washer so everyone could actually have a shower today.

The worst part is the floor is still icky. I'ts gone from slime that will knock you to the floor with it's slickness to tacky and sticky, who knew?! So after much internet searching I'm debating between using baking soda, salt, cat litter or vineagar for the clean up.

It was definitely a STUPID thing to do and I'm paying dearly for it, wow what a mess!

On my flight back home last night I left my Laptop in the seat pocket.

Big surprise, it was not found.

Oh, that really, really sucks Moonie!

The last plane we were on the man next to us left his phone and some other electonic device. I yelled for him but he was wrangling two kids and didn't hear. I got it to the stewardess as quick as I could and told her what seats he was in, I hope he got it all back.

Sorry to hear about your laptop Moonliner. Here's an interesting article I read the other day that isn't helpful for you now, but hopefully will remind others.
