Bad Idea #4 - The Dishwasher

To Rinse Or Not To Rinse - That is the Question
I posted about not pre-rinsing my dishes before putting them in the dishwasher back in September. Can. Not. Do. It. Don't know why, but it freaks me out. Sister Heather picks on me about it, but then again, she picks on me about a lot of things. That's what VERY MUCH OLDER sisters do, I guess.

I have tried. I've tried and tried and tried to load those filthy plates in the washer, but it simply makes my skin crawl. So then I switched to the old "hand scrape" method, which made me dry-heave. Wierd, since a minute earlier I would have been snatching up that leftover meatball and popping it right in my piehole. I think it has something to do with the food nearing the proximity of the germy sink that makes it so gross. It's difficult to explain in words, but this is how my wierdo mind sees it:




Dry Toast





Dry Heave






Ice Cream






I Spew






Bacon

















Aha! Gotcha! There's no such thing as leftover bacon, silly!

Anyhow, the point is, this idea IS good -- if you have the stomach for it. Personally, I don't. And if this really IS how people load their dishwashers, I'm going to be deeply disturbed.

Bad Idea #3 -

Yeah, this is my most oft visited bad idea: Nothing.

When I just sit here staring at the computer screen and the inside my skull is just one big void. This happens a lot. And not just when I'm blogging.

Also, I didn't bother to write anything today, so the timing couldn't be better.
