Like a freak show on Halloween....

Like a freak show on Halloween....


The scariest thing to happen to me today?

Seeing my bathroom, for the first time in months, with decent lighting.

I wanted to die!

Like most people, I've been putting off replacing the burned out light bulbs above my bathroom sink.

When the first one burned out, I was like, eh..... Still have 3 more.

When the second one burned out I was like, eh.... I really should replace those.

When the third one burned out this morning I was like, crap. Now I have to replace those damn things.

Now, replacing the bulbs in my bathroom is a real pain in the ass.

First I have to take down the cover that conceals the naked bulbs from view.

This is a project, in itself.

Have you ever looked at the dust that accumulates behind that shit? I had to pull out the vacuum just to clean up the dust.

Once I have the bulbs replaced, I have to figure out how to get the cover back on without smashing the fucker to bits. It's an intricate process...

The scariest part of my day, however, was to come a few hours later.

Not really turning the light back on after fixing the bulbs, I continued on with my day of getting my ready for school and lazing around on the couch, watching missed episodes of my shows from earlier this week.

Then it happened.

I went into the bathroom to put the hair brush away and flipped on the light.

A beacon of light shown down from the fixture, revealing every disgusting nook and cranny in my bathroom.

Instinctively I shielded my eyes from the horror....

Then I wished for the days when I still had two burned out bulbs and my bathroom still looked clean and inviting.....

Ugh... Now I have to clean my bathroom on my day off...

upkeep, especially with kids is really hard. Even somethings like burned out bulbs is easily put off. I recently "Kaboomed" my bathroom floor.

My bathroom gets especially gross when my son is around a lot. What is it with boys? They can't seem to pee without getting it all over the toilet, they never hang their towels up after they shower, and there is always a stalactite of dried up shampoo beneath their shampoo bottle.

That is sucky. I'm an ex janitor so I've seen how dust and dust balls develop behind and under things. I wish you a wonderful well lit night.

When my daughter got home she immediately asked what I did to the bathroom. LOL I scrubbed the whole thing, including my baseboard heater thing, with bleach spray.

Sounds horrifying!

I try to leave my light off, but that only makes it worse. .. I have hours of scrubbing with pumice waiting for me someday.

Or just keep the door closed

When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro.

The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.

That won't work, at some point, I've got to use it.
