I can see it now... Here's the scenario: I'm cleaning house in the summer.
I have beer in my hair (#1) and I have coated my face with Elmer's glue, which is drying (#6). I have WD 40 sprayed on my joints (#11), and Preparation H under my eyes (#14). I have green Kool Aid soaking in the
toilet (#20). My glasses are coated with toothpaste (#34)... I have Pampers upside down several places on the carpet (#36)... and two pans soaking and fizzing in the kitchen sink (#39). Since it's summer in Alabama , it's HOT, so I have a Maxi-Pad for a sweat band under my hat (#46). In addition, I have a Maxi-Pad on each palm (#35) as I wash the windows and floors, with Maxi-Pads for knee cushions.
There's a knock on the door.... It's probably Martha Stewart.
toothpaste also works great for acne, far better than any "real" acne treatment i've tried and alot cheaper too.
Crest toothepaste. It will dry up a zit overnight. Best stuff on the market for sure. I used it all the way thru high school and never had any problems.
I recycled this post for Freaky Friday since it had some fun, as well as good, information on it.
