Speaker 1 (00:00):
What is this towel caper I missed? Yesterday? Girls were talking.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
About So I've got a lot of issues about my
house being clean, and I'm I do a pretty good
job of recognizing when I need to, like that's a
me thing, like okay, well you're going overboard with that.
People are going to drop a sesame seed off of
their piece of bread because I mean, I do follow
(00:25):
him around the house and I'm like, there's a drop
of water on the floor, like and I'm I'm I'm
good at like, Okay, well I have to let some
stuff go because I'm a little bit insane about like
I would really like your OCD about your house.
Speaker 1 (00:39):
I'd really like to live by myself.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
And if I did, I would never touch anything, and
I'd clean the house once and I'd never have to
clean it again because I would not I wouldn't eat there,
I wouldn't keep there. Is not very reasonable, so reasonable
and he is not of that mindset. He's like, houses
get messy and kitchens are for cooking, and so I
do try to meet in the middle and not be.
Speaker 1 (01:03):
So crazy crazy about it.
Speaker 2 (01:06):
Yes, So Sunday we went into the big bathroom together
because he was going to give me my shot.
Speaker 1 (01:13):
He does that for me. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:15):
So Saturday was a big cleaning day for me, and
I got almost everything done. And one of the things
that drives me crazy is when I'm almost at the
finish line and I only have two things left, and
I hate knowing.
Speaker 1 (01:29):
That I got to go back and redo something that
I just did.
Speaker 2 (01:32):
Like I want to do those last two things, and
then the house is clean, and like for a second,
I can.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
Kind of revel in it. The whole list has crossed off, right,
And I only lived on Sunday.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
I had like two little things to do, and I
would have been done so Saturday, like eight at night,
because you know it's Saturday night. We're going to be
up eight at night. I go into the big bathroom
and I do sinks and mirrors. And this is a
crazy lines. This whole thing is a crazy lines on steroids.
But we have the big bathroom in the small bathroom,
and I need the hand towels to match each other.
Speaker 1 (02:04):
Even though, yeah, but it's just a thing that I like.
Speaker 2 (02:08):
So when I go in and I do the bathrooms,
and I clean the sinks and the mirrors, and I
change the hand towels, and I also have I rate
my hand towels from these are my favorite hand towels.
Speaker 1 (02:18):
These are my second.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
Favorite, and down to like, okay, these are the last
hand So I changed the hand towel and I put
it in there and it was it was the pair
that's my favorite.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
That was Saturday night, eight o'clock at night.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
So Sunday we go in the bathroom and he's about
to give me the shot and I come walking in
and this is how I police myself. I look at
the counter and I notice it's all spotty again, and
the mirrors got water drips because he washes his hands
and he goes like this like outward, and I'm like,
I'm gonna just keep it quiet because I.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
And also people wash their hands in the sink until
I can find a way to stop that, they're going
to keep washing their hands and sink. Sure, And I
look over to the towel rack and I noticed that
my least favorite hand towel is hanging there. Now I
just hung and one of the two things I was
going to do the next day was a small bathroom okay,
where the other matching towel would go.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
It's nuts and I get it.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
So I look over and I see my least favorite
hand towel hanging there, and I and I look at him,
and I say, I just cleaned all this yesterday and
I just hung a brand new hand towel, Like, I
don't understand where what happened between.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
Eight o'clock last night and twelve thirty this afternoon? And
he's like, I got used?
Speaker 2 (03:38):
And I was like no, because I've also said, can
you go to the linen closet if you need a
towel and grab the towel?
Speaker 3 (03:44):
Why was like a hand towel, okay, even if it's
not the way you like it, but a hand towel
is after you wash your hands, you dry it off.
Why would it go away though put a new one there?
What happened to the towel.
Speaker 1 (03:54):
It wouldn't. That's the thing it should hang there for.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
I maybe wet, but yeah, I mean a little bit damp,
but usually when I change the hand towels. They stayed
there for maybe a week, a little short of a way.
So he used it for a much bigger purpose then. Yeah,
he was in there doing something washing izzy and didn't
plan ahead and grab the hand towel, probably to dry izzy,
and I'm just piecing all this together. And that's probably
why the sink is totally trash, because you won't put
(04:17):
her in the tub, and he does it in the
bathroom sink.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
So anyway, and.
Speaker 2 (04:21):
I almost apologize, like right after this happened. I almost did,
because I don't have a problem like if I if
I'm out of line, I'll say, okay, I overreacted. But
I thought about it for a second and I did it.
So we're standing there, I zero in on the towel.
Everything everything comes to a head now spots on the mirror.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
The sink is trash. Just last night at eight o'clock,
I did all this.
Speaker 2 (04:41):
So I grabbed the towel off the thing and I
ball it up and I like I'm a pitcher in
a baseball cap, and I pull my arm back and
I throw it in the hallway at the at the
closet in the hallway, which there's no dramatic effect because
a towel just to fall like paper.
Speaker 1 (05:01):
So this whole.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
Smashing thing I wanted to do with the towel isn't
going to happen. And he looks at me and he
has a bottle of rubbing alcohol in his hand because
he's getting ready to put it on the cotton ball,
and he just drops it in the sink and it's
gurgling in the sink, like going down the drain, and he's.
Speaker 1 (05:16):
Like, that shot tomorrow. So you both had tantrums.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
Yeah, I mean, and I started it, but that I
saw that towel and I so I'm standing in the
bathroom and I'm like, maybe I overreacted and maybe I'll
just say sorry. And I was like, you know what,
I brought this towel thing up a million times.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
I'm not I'm not saying.
Speaker 2 (05:33):
Sorry, but the whole like instant replay of me taking
this towel and whipping it out of the bathroom into
the hallway, and it's just like.
Speaker 3 (05:40):
Well, that's like when you get mad at something and
you or throw it or you kick something and you
don't successfully kick it, right, so then you'll kick something else.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
Right, you're not even mad at anymore?
Speaker 3 (05:49):
Right?
Speaker 1 (05:49):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (05:50):
Oh yeah, I mean it's possible that I completely lost
my mind.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
I don't think, so I feel.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
Like I've established my feeling about then could you not
get your shot at that point? Then you had to
also deal with his rubbing alcohol that was leaking everywhere.
That was his.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
He's never he's never gonna come back.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
I did that up and we probably lost half the
bottle because I was like, I'm not cleaning up your
mess either, and I walked out of there. And then
I went in the bedroom and I was like, I
don't want to buy a new bottle of rubbing.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
There's no tariff on rubbing alcohol. Yeah, the cheapest thing
you can buy. Yeah, So that's what's going on at
my house. Are he's speaking yet, Yeah?
Speaker 2 (06:26):
And then I had a meltdown about the britis picture
yesterday and no
Speaker 3 (06:29):
I know, Oh my god.
What is this towel caper I missed? Yesterday? Girls were talking.
