That didn't work out too well for me.
Trying to put the house to bed
when you're really tired is just a bad idea.
I grabbed the oval glass baking dish
off the dining room table, plunked it in the sink,
squirted Dawn in it and went to clear the table.
Went around and locked all the doors.
Got that done and noticed some juicy looking blackberry cobbler drippings
in the bottom of the baking dish.
Looked like the kids missed some.
Dug my thumb in and scraped some cobbler up into my mouth.
Forgot about the Dawn dish-washing liquid.
Still taste it after rinsing,
sneaking some of Teddy's Arizona iced tea,
a banana and toothpaste.
Now I know how it melts grease.
Greasy profanity.
I'll never swear again.
