I’m gonna give you two Carlos stories this week; this one and
the one that really kills me, down the page a bit.
Y’all know some of the Casa Bob y Carlos rules, one of which
is I do the laundry. Well, as happen with cats, there is some hair-balling that
goes on, and one night Carlos, who sleeps with a pillow on his feet, kicked said
pillow to the floor, where it was in the perfect spot for MaxGoldberg to puke
on it; and he did.
Carlos set about cleaning off the pillow and washing the pillowcase.
The following morning, I was doing laundry and found the pillowcase in the
washer, put it in the dryer and turned it on, and then began washing some clothes.
Later I removed the pillowcase from the dryer as Carlos was walking by the
laundry room, and I noticed all the dried hairball, um, “stuff” still on the
pillow.
He hadn’t washed it, he just threw it in the washer and when
I found it I thought he had washed it, so I tossed it in the dryer and then
dried to Max Vomit™ onto the pillowcase.
After a huge discussion about the importance of washing
materials that have been puked upon almost instantly so the puke doesn’t set, I
then washed the pillowcase myself, and, luckily, all signs of hair-ballage were
gone. |
