Jo Firey - 12 Apr 2005 21:52 GMT I've been a little distracted today. Just a while ago, I'm not sure if I was topping off the cat food or the kitty litter, but I poured a nice amount of cat food into the litter box.
I think I need a nap. Pity the poor people who think I'm preparing their tax returns!

Me and my best friend when we were kids used to eat doggie chocolate buttons. Another seriously good one (For the looks on peoples faces- they don't taste of much at all) is to eat those bits of packing material that are environmentally friendly being made of puffed up wheat rather than polystrene.

A friend's young daughter once asked me why the cats liked the cat treats so much, and I said I suppose they taste good. Something about the expression on her face made me ask why she wanted to know. She said that she'd tasted one, and didn't think it tasted very good at all, so she was wondering why the cats loved them!

At a previous job, one of those plumbed-in coffee machines had the valve get stuck open. No one remembered where the cutoff valve was. Finally, in desparation, they had to turn off the water to the entire factory. By that point, we had a puddle of coffee about 20 feet wide. The cutoff valve turned out to be inside a closet several yards away from the coffee machine.

Incredibly bitter.
Pouring cat food into the litter box, at least, is something that would make perfect sense to an industrial process efficiency specialist.

LOL, I can attest to that last one, since I've made the mistake of adding orange juice to my coffee when I'd intended to add milk. :oP Coffee and orange juice don't complement one another at all.
The orange juice/tea combo sounds good. I've added a SMALL amount of orange juice to hot tea, instead of lemon, and it's good. But I never thought to make a whole batch of tea+orange juice, nor had it crossed my mind to try this with iced tea. Sounds good! :o)
And while we're on the subject of tea/fruit juice combos, I remember following a friend's suggestion and heating apple juice, then brewing some Bigelow orange herbal tea (I forget the name of that particular flavor) in it. THAT was pretty good. I'm glad my friend suggested it, as I wouldn't have thought to try that on my own.

LOL! But anyone who's tired enough to attempt brewing their tea in a cup of coffee probably needs the extra caffeine. ;o)
A similar mistake by someone I know, who put instant hot cocoa into his cup and poured coffee into it, turned out much better. (Normally the carafe he used contained hot water, but this time it had coffee.) That actually tasted pretty good, according to him, so I tried it. I like it.
:o) Something I DIDN'T like was the result of accidentally pouring orange juice into my coffee when I meant to put milk in. OOPS. Bad idea. That was definitely one of those "I'm standing up, and I'm walking around, but I'm not entirely awake" mornings! ;o)

Tax season is almost over! =o)
Ummmm.... since I feed my cats moist food, I can't say as I've ever put it directly into the kitty box instead of their bowls. Of course, it helps that the cat box is not in the kitchen.
Don't worry, though. I've done plenty of silly things by virtue of not paying attention.

I havent' done that, but I've become so distracted by the kitties when bringing groceries in that I put the milk in the cupboard and the apples in the refrigerator. Fortunately I noticed what I had done before the milk went bad.
And there have been a couple times I've brought the mail in while I was bringing in groceries and put the mail in the frig and the milk on the mail shelf.
No, I never get distracted :)

Pat - 13 Apr 2005 02:00 GMT I admit to having done the same thing. More than once. And I always pick all the food out and put it back in the bag.
But here's something I've done that's even worse! I sometimes use an empty dry cat food bag to deposit used clumping litter which I later (when the bag fills up) carry out to the woods to dump. One time, I dumped a bag of dry cat food that I mistook for a bag of litterbox waste!

Well, this isn't really in the same vein, but it happened 10 years ago and I, to this day feel dreadful guilt over it. The League for the Blind had called and asked if I had any donations for Saturday (they take clothing, toys, about anything. You leave it on your porch). Saturday came and I forgot. I had, however, put a black trash bag full of litter and empty litter sacks on the porch, because it was raining and I was going to wait till I took it out to the curb. You know where this is going. The bag disappeared. I called every League of the Blind store in town trying to find out who I needed to apologize to. Gad. I feel awful just telling this again. I imagine whoever opened it thought it was an awful, horrible joke.

Stormin Mormon - 13 Apr 2005 14:09 GMT Hmm. Maybe that's the answer. I got a really nasty case of "mealworms". Probably from the cat food.
Tiny brown moths who flitter around, infest any kind of grain product. And eventually end up crawling across the ceiling. I did finally get the solution, from a friend on the email.

When I was seven, I refused to brush my teeth one night (I no longer remember why). My mother got impatient, loaded up the toothbrush, and started brushing my teeth, over my spluttered protests. When I could finally be heard, I told her that she had put First Aid Cream (an antiseptic cream) on the toothbrush, instead of toothpaste. It tasted pretty foul.

Took a nice hot bath with baby oil in the tub. Got out feeling all silky soft. But I neglected to clean out the tub. The next morning before work I filled the tub with water and dunked my head under to give it a quick wash. Got to work and someone asked several hours later, "Is your hair still wet?" Oh! It was coated in mineral oil. I realized what I'd done as soon as the question was asked.

We were getting ready for x-mas eve dinner and with 3 bathrooms and 12 adults and 10 kids, it gets a little hectic. She grabbed my deodorant, thinking it was hair spray (hello! do I look like I use hair spray?). On another x-mas, she grabbed my shave gel and used it on the same poor daughter. Then she yelled at me! I said, it's not my fault you don't read english! She said, but it said "gel". I said, yeah, shave gel not hair gel. :)

Believe me, although I have not done that particular one, I've come close. And I've done everything else just about. Like start to put the bag of dirty cat litter in the fridge . . . . Good thing I caught myself!

Last week, I fortunately noticed that the bottle of cooking oil that I was about to pour into the skillet in preparation for sauteing something was none other than Orange scented Pine Sol. Amazing how similar the bottles are.

My best is, last thing at night, putting my hot water bottle outside on the doorstep and taking the milk bottles up to bed with me.
Tweed Now I am wondering how many of you have milkmen who come in the early hours and put bottles of milk outside your door! Anyway, they do here, and you have to put the empty bottles out..
One of my brothers was a milkman once. He used to have to go at midnight to collect his milk from a depot, drive around all night delivering it in a remote location where everyone seemed to have a quarter mile long drive, and go back in the daytime Thurs & Fri to collect the payment for it. It wore him out after 5 years of it. He never got to see his children, so he packed it up.
