petty annoyances
Feb. 18th, 2003 10:56 pmWe will strive to get past the fact that I am a nearly 27-year-old woman who has a pink and white stuffed Hello Kitty doll dressed in pajamas on her bed. We will focus merely on the fact that my evilcute dog tore the little head bow** off said Hello Kitty while I was standing there saying, "Arwen Isobel, GET DOWN! DOWN FROM THE BED! DOWN!" in my best command voice.
No, we will reserve our ire for the fact that the anti-stink seal seems to be broken on the toilet in the house which is used most frequently, and now the rooms used most frequently are filled with a mild foul stench... like a litter box that needs to be changed. Then, we will focus on the fact that instead of using, say, the IONIC BREEZE AIR-SMELLER-BETTER MACHINE, our mother has chosen to light three different high-scent candles in three different scents all within about fifteen feet of the stench, in triangulation. End result - I have decamped to the other end of my house.***
**(coincidentally just the right proportions for a young Sheltie's mouth)
***(Not that my house has many "ends." Any one room usually has doors to a minimum of two others; most have at least three, with the design being a circle of rooms around two large ones. One is the one I'm in now, and the other is the adjacent kitchen.
