In which I add a BIG, FAT Number 11

Maybe you read my "10 things I hate"List. Maybe you didn't. But eh, either way...I have a little...*ahem*...shall we call it Addendum?

Some More things I Rather Hate:

11. When you are so busy focusing on the fact that you are grossly in need of a professional haircut (IE. one that doesn't happen in the privacy of your bathroom) that you spend forevah trying to make your hair not look like Dudley Moore circa 1980 that you completely forget to practice personal hygiene before leaving for church.

12. When you don't realize the slight oversight of not having brushed your teeth until far too late. As in, in the car. on the way to the church. a good distance from the house. forcing you to pop in two very strong, very minty-fresh pieces of gum.

13. When you are busy chomping on your hygiene-aiding wad of gum, in the middle of a conversation with multiple people in the church lobby, when you suddenly realize that you also forgot to shave the prickles from underneath your exposed arm pits. Just about the same time that you forgot to coat those same armpits with Degree deodorant.

14. When, upon said realizations, your body temperature automatically and irreversibly raises 15 degrees. causing you to be immediately be covered in a cold sweat. Something not conducive to a sound, peace of mind when NOT wearing deodorant.

15. When you have to try and track down someone who happens to have deodorant. on hand. at church. (Thank God, if this were to happen to ME, I'm not a shy person)

16. When you do finally track down someone who has a key to the Church Staff's bathroom's fully stocked cabinet.... and find that all they have is Men's Right Guard...clearly not of the unscented variety. Smelling like a man is better than the alternative. Uh, right?

17. When you go into the church's infant nursery, only to find that the person you're sharing Nursery Duty with happens to have an extra deodorant in her purse. the kind that smells like powder and lotion and all things feminine. Only 10 minutes too late.

18. When you realize...hours later as you picnic with a ton of friends in the summer's heat... that men's deodorant doesn't work for you anyway.


Yeah. I think that about covers it. Just add 11-18 to my last list.

NOT that I'm speaking from personal experience or anything. No, this is pure hypothetical musings of some things that I think I would totally hate.

You know, WERE it to happen to me.
