Today, little Eli and I were in the kitchen...he had the refrigerator door open because he's 16 and apparently that's a requirement of someone his age....so anyway, my back is to him and I hear, "What the heck is this doing in the refrigerator?"
I turn to look and he's holding up a can of Comet cleanser that was in the door of the refrigerator...I was stunned...just shocked...I froze...I thought, "What the heck is wrong with me?...am I losing it totally?"....I was at a loss for words and I could feel the sweat beginning to pop out on my forehead as I tried to make sense of putting the Comet in the door of the refrigerator to this young man...and then, thankfully, it was like a gift of understanding dropped into my brain.
The Comet was on the sink because I was cleaning and it happened to to be roughly the same size, shape and color of the Parmesan cheese container we just bought. I wasn't being forgetful, I was being thorough AND neat!!! YAY for me!!! And what a cool and fun way to remember little Eli's face when he was standing with the door of the refrigerator open and holding the Comet...priceless...

It's just like you to put the comet in the fridge. Ha Ha!
Don't feel bad....I do it all the time.
Knowing how warped I am, I don't know if you will feel better if I tell you that I do it all of the time too. Maybe you don't feel reassured that you're behavior is fine if it's the crazy lady you're being compared to. . .
Hey, I'm just thrilled that I'm not alone...just so happy...*sigh of relief*
