So, I lost my keys.
Spent forty minutes this morning looking for them - in places that include the table, the coffee table, the piano, the wardrobe, the kitchen cupboards, the oven, inside my bed, the bathroom rubbish bin, the garden, the car, the garage, every drawer in the house, my bag, my other bag, my other other bag, the couch, and my secret chocolate supply.
They were NOWHERE.
Then, finally, I heaved a sigh of absolute disgust, and said "Hey! God! Can you please give me back my keys? They're kind of IMPORTANT."
That being done, I took one step forward, across the middle of my living room.
...and I stepped on them.
This is just getting ridiculous.

Date: 2009-08-16 02:37 am (UTC)I, however, do not believe in God - here's why:
1) I am nearsighted. I wear glasses for this. I do not wear these glasses in the shower. Therefore it is hard to tell what splotches on the shower floor are.
I see a splotch today, on the floor, and think, "Eh, probably dirt." I go about my showering business.
And FUCKFUCKFUCK IT MOVES. I lean down to tell what it is. IT'S A GIANT BUG.
And then I have to close my eyes to wash the shampoo out and THEN I OPEN THEM AND IT'S MOVING ACROSS THE FLOOR. AAHHHHHHH.
And then I get out and get someone else to kill it.
2) So then - directly after this, mind you - I go to have some lunch. I take a thing of milk out of the fridge, briefly noting that the lid's white instead of blue. "Huh, must have gotten a different brand without noticing, whatevs."
I pour a full glass, make the rest of my lunch, sit down, take a sip. FUCKFUCKFUCK IT TASTES DISGUSTING IT MUST BE SOUR. I pour it down the sink and take out the bottle to check the expiration date.
Was it sour, my friends? No, that's too simple! IT WAS FUCKING BUTTERMILK. WTF.
*sigh*

I've had a huge spider on the wall next to my shower, and I almost put my hand right on it when I leant on the wall for a moment while getting out of the shower - but I think a big bug actually IN the shower would be worse...)

Date: 2009-08-16 06:34 am (UTC)You can make your own - get some full-cream milk and put it in a jar with some marbles and just sit there shaking it for about an hour. You'll end up with butter on the marbles and buttermilk everywhere else in the jar :-) (or so my grade 5 teacher told me)

I have learnt about the following topics: buttermilk, milk, cockney rhyming slang, polari, Kenneth Williams, impersonators of Kennth Williams, The Goon show, Punch and Judy professors and swazzles.
And heavens knows what else.

And fuck if I know why it was in my fridge. For a recipe, maybe?

He doesn't listen to my pleas about taps anymore, so I guess it's a mutual disbelief nowadays. :-p
