Clever Living: Gee honey, is that liquid Tide in your hair?

Why yes, yes it is.

After putting both boys down for their naps (well, Henry is more into talking to himself upstairs, but I’m hoping I can stretch naptime for as long as humanly possible), I started to tackle an overflowing stack of laundry. Our basement is unfinished and that’s where our washer and dryer are. So after sorting the clothes, moving the clean stuff to the laundry table, the wet stuff to the dryer and the dirty stuff to the washer, I added my OxyClean and started to fill up the cup with liquid laundry detergent. The cup was about 3/4 full when I noticed a little tickle on my left pinkie toe. Looking down, I saw that a cockroach was trying to climb up my foot via said pinkie toe. AAAAAAAAACCCCCHHHHHHH! I simultaneously screamed and employing a brilliant defensive strategy, threw the liquid soap into my hair, onto my shirt and all over my hands, scattering many a bottle of detergent, soap and dryer sheets while the roach tried his best to crawl away. Ugh. Thinking about it still gives me the shivers. At least I smell good.
