Since I am unlike a lot of you and I am slightly obsessed with cleaning, I thought it would be fun to add a confessions series to my blog. My “Confessions of a Clean Freak” series will be my confessions of crazy things that I think and am afraid of that most of you have probably never even thought of. I apologize in advance for my craziness and I hope that I will not offend anyone but merely open up a door for you to get to know me a little bit more.Confession number one: hmm… where do I start… okay, here it is… I am slightly terrified of the bottoms of pant legs. I know this may seem strange but let me explain. For most of us our pant legs drag on the ground all day long touching everything that the bottom of our shoes touch. Now you would never want to touch the bottom of your shoes or take them off and lay them (or hang them) right next to all of your clean clothes! Think about all the places that your shoes and pants touch all day long. I’m guessing that they have walked across some pretty gross parking lots and if you have a small bladder like me I’m sure they have seen a couple of bathroom stalls and do you know what is on those bathroom floors!?! YUCK!!!
So why is it that people don’t mind the bottom of their pant legs touching their hands, their clean clothes, their food via their hands, etc. The last meeting Matt and I were at he sat there playing with the bottom of his pants while the speaker gave his talk and then when he was done playing with his pants his hands went straight to his plate of food where he picked up a piece of fruit and putting it in his mouth. I had to keep myself from vomiting because I could just visualize all of the germs that he had just put in his mouth!!! If I ever see him playing with his pants I will make him wash his hands before he even thinks about touching me!
So there you have it, confession number one. I know you probably think that I am crazy but at least now you will think twice before touching the bottom of your pants or you will at least think of me next time you to touch them! :)
Oh great, Anna. Thanks a lot. Something I never would have thought about now will make me cringe. How gross but true.
ReplyDeleteYou crack me up! But, yes, you make a very good point! :)
ReplyDeleteI'd call you crazy, but that makes sense! I'm going to get all germ-freaky from your confessions
