This past weekend I was cleaning my critter cage and I decided to soak it in the bathtub. It took up about 2/3 of the tub. I was sitting on the edge of the tub, leaned over to scrub the off side, lost my balance, and, plop, fell right into the tub. So here I am flailing butt-down in the back 1/3 of the tub with my legs dangling over the sides. The water temp is 140F and hot water is still pouring out of the faucet. I can't reach the faucet to turn it off because the cage is in the way. I can't drag myself out of the tub because my butt is wedged in by the cage. I'm laughing hysterically but, still, I know my butt is going to be getting hotter and hotter if I don't make a fast exit. Lucky for me, I had a quick response to my hollers of "I need some help in here!!!" Chris walks into the room, stares at me, and says, "What are you doing?"
"Cleaning, Chris. I'm cleaning."

See--cleaning is DANGEROUS and should be avoided at all costs!

Just what I needed. I am very glad you are ok! I am also very glad you "took one for the team" in the form of an hilarious story. A reminder to lighten up is always needed! Bonbons, your signature is such a beautiful quote. I read it to my 6'6", 23 year old son who is working as a vet assistant. And he cried, too. Thanks for both.  |
