Cleans Dishes and Nails!
"Much to learn you still have...my old padawan." - Yoda



Ok ladies, I'm a man in case you haven't noticed and being a man means that I lack the ability to decifer the complex code that is women's ACCESSORIES! Women have a more diverse and complex set of tools than any Home Depot. And the thing is...you can't just look at them and tell what they're for.

You take one look at a hammer and say...hmm that's used to hit things.
A screwdriver...screw things (also good for prying things open)
Do you see where I'm going with this. Why do women make things difficult. Clothes for instance. Men have 2 measurments. 1 for the waist and 1 for length. That's it. Women's clothes!!! You need a masters in algebra and if your looking at dresses you need at least a masters in geometry.

Anywho. I usually stop by the house before I pick up the kids, to do some quick house pick up/cleaning. On this day it was dishes. We had home made pizza the night before so the sink was full of dishes caked with lots of pepporoni and sauce. That stuff sticks to everything. Anyway. I open the dishwasher and prepare to start loading it. I usually try to get most of the stuff off before I load the dishes in so I turn the hot water on, grab the shiny new scubbing utensil. "Jenn most have got that when she went to Wal-Mart this weekend." I think to myself. "Works good." That thing worked alot better than those scubbing sponges and it has a cool handle so you don't have to touch it, unlike the sponges that oooze goo when you grab them.

Later that night as we're just hanging in the house I hear Jenn shout from the kitchen..."What did you do with my NAIL BRUSH!!!"
Nail brush? What's a nail br...ooooo that's what that was. Hey it was laying by the sink. What was I supposed to think! Guys...if you saw that thing laying by the sink wouldn't you assume it was used to scrub grime off of pots and pans?
Anyway...just one more tool I've learned about in the endless arsenal of women's accessories.

    Oh... I have a bad feeling about this one. I can just picture the scene very easliy because been there done that. What's scary is Jen probably paid a good penny for your new dish scrubber.

    Not sure how much it was but I'm sure you're correct.

    Yes-I do dishes. I do laundry too.
    But don't tell anyone.

    That's funny G! I have to give you credit. There are only a few men out there that help around the house. So what - you used the wrong tool?! The point is - YOU MADE IT HAPPEN - YOU GOT THOSE DISHES CLEANED!!!!
