Finally, in this harried and crazy world I’ve found someone, err, something that really understands my needs.
It’s my deodorant.
I made this pleasant discovery only this morning as I was getting dressed. “Extra responsive in emotional moments” the sticker reads on the bottle.
Golly, what else does a woman need (besides a good, er, support system….if you get my drift)?
So I pulled on my new “These-won’t-make-your butt-look so-big” (TWMYBLSB Brand) jeans and started my day full of confidence and zest.
And then I encountered a cockroach in the kitchen. I swear the thing was swaggering.
Well, he’s got another thing coming to him. The exterminator is due any moment now.
In the meanwhile….I want my money back on that deodorant. It was most definitely NOT responsive to my emotional moment .

The only thing more disgusting than cockroaches are leeches, but it’s a pretty small margin.
Oh double bleck!!!!! I am happy to report that the roaches the guy found are mainly “outdoor” types….ie….not an issue with them wanting to take over my cupboards.
I’m such a woos.
