housecleaning

i'm brushing my teeth and i notice that there's toothpaste in the sink. so i wash it out by splashing a little water in the sink and rubbing at the toothpaste with my finger while cursing my husband who can never manage to clean up after himself. then i notice that the faucet is spotty, so i grab the cleanser and spray it. i pull everything off the sink and put it on the trashcan that is next to the sink. it's one of those big step-on kinds that used to be a diaper pail but now it's the laundry bin for wet stuff like these cloth "paper" towels we use. I keep them in the kitchen, and when i go there to get one to finish washing the sink, i notice that the stove is filthy. So i put the cloth i have in my hand over the back of the chair, notice that there are already 4 more on the chair, one falls to the floor when i put the clean on there, and i leave it on the floor, thinking "i'll put that in the can in the bathroom when i go back in there" and i take all of the burners and put them in the sink. i go to the bathroom to get the cleanser, and see the trashcan, remember that i wanted to throw the towel in it, go back for it, can't remember what i was there for, remember something about a towel, i go to get a clean one from the cabint, and see that the sippy cups are all jumbled. so i take them all out, put them on the the counter, see the burners in the sink and go to put them back on the stove, remember that i didn't clean the stove yet, go back to the bathroom to get the cleanser, notice that the bathroom sink is still running, turn it off, dry my hands on the towel i've been carrying around, grab the cleanser, go back to the kitchen, notice that I have a new email, put the cleanser and the towel on the floor next to my chair, read the email from martha, remember that I was supposed to look up the name of that book for her, go to amazon to look it up, see an ad for kid's videos, google "Italian language children's videos", open the next 14 links in new tabs, the first link is for ebay, see that there is a waiting message, see that i forgot to bid on that yarn i'd been watching, and spend the next 2 hours searching and researching bulky punchcard knitting machines.
