In my midst of decluttering, I took all the bottles of alcohol off the top of the fridge (I don't know why we have it at all, we don't drink hard alcohol, but that's not the point, right now).
I carry the bottles down to the laundry room (cause isn't that where everyone keeps their hard liquor?). The bottles clanked and clinked as I tried getting the up on the top shelf.
Do you see where this is going?
Of course I was carrying too many at once; trying to rearrange them and BAM!
A bottle smashed to the floor, shattered and the contents emptied at my feet.
I was stressed as it was and now THIS?
If that bottle had been beer, instead of non alcoholic sparkling champagne, I would have thrown myself to the floor and lapped it up like a dog.
It did make me giggle to picture myself on the floor licking it all up, and reminded me to slow down. Do what I could and that would be good enough. Plus it made me mop the floor, which could have TOTALLY been skipped but now it's done. :)
At least it wasn't bloody mary mix :-)
ReplyDeleteDamn that non-alcoholic beverage. Who needs more mess to clean up?
ReplyDeleteBeing who I am, I probably would have ended up lapping it up anyway...
That would totally happen to me though I would be lapping it up. I loathe beer but the hard stuff...mmmm. Course I would have also dumped some coke on the floor too. Gotta have mix!
ReplyDeleteI'm so happy to learn that no real alcohol was harmed in the making of this post. I'm not sure I'd have been able to carry on if it had been vodka. Or wine.
ReplyDeleteServes you right for hoarding non-alcoholic champagne...
ReplyDeleteFunny. I have 3 bottles of non-alcholic champagne in our wine chest. No wine though obviously because IT HAS ALCHOHOL!
ReplyDeleteNON alcoholic champagne?!? Blasphemy.
ReplyDeleteokay, i am giggling while picturing your lapping up beer from your floor...your un-mopped floor. okay, now i am a little icked out. nevermind. glad it wasn't the "good" stuff that was lost and I hate it when something happens to force me to mop when I was not planning to! ugh.
ReplyDeleteYou would have been a bloody drunk with a tongue hanging in jagged flaps embedded with glass shards...but ok.
ReplyDeleteWell at least you didn't cry over spilled fake champagne. :)
ReplyDeleteThat reminded me of the movie Fools Rush In with Matthew Perry where he's drunk off his ass and on the floor trying to get a drink. He just dumps it on the carpet and starts licking it up.
ReplyDeleteI don't like to think of you lapping up that stuff along with broken glass. Be careful Stacie.
ReplyDeleteDon't laugh, I have a few bottles in the laundry room, and the rest under the kitchen sink.
ReplyDeleteSo if you didn't lap it up, does that mean you used a straw? Proper etiquette. Proper etiquette.
ReplyDeleteIf you didn't have kids, I would say leave it on the floor and see if Mr. Miata even notices.
