Can You Smell That Smell?

Have you ever been five minutes into watching a movie and already know how it's going to end? If you already know that the couple who seem to hate each other are going to end up madly in love, why even watch the movie? I think the reason we do this is because the journey can still be enjoyable. We know where we're going, but we don't know exactly how we'll get there. This must have been what Alpha Female was thinking about when she saw Thing 1 come into the kitchen with a glass bottle of perfume. Alpha Female knew that the bottle would break, but she didn't take the bottle away from Thing 1 because she must have been wondering how Thing 1 was going to break the bottle. As it turns out, that movie wasn't worth watching. Thing 1 dropped the bottle just second after walking into the kitchen with it. Of course, just as predicted, it broke. The thing about perfume is that it is pretty hard to clean up. It is a lot oilier than you might imagine. Despite multiple floor moppings, it's really stinking up my house this morning. I think I'm going to go outside and roll around in something to get rid of this stink of perfume.
