Approximate time for a egg to fall out of my my hands and crash to the floor in a disgusting splat of shell and gel?

.0025 nanoseconds.


Approximate time to clean up disgusting splat of shell and gel?


25 minutes and approximately 47 sheets of paper towell and a thrice-rinsed dishrag.


And a lot of swearing.


A lot.

Damnit.

And writing about it in your blog: Priceless!

why, on Earth, did it take you THAT long to clean up an egg?? I believe you're supposed to sprinkle it with salt, wait a few minutes, and then mop it up. Better yet, don't drop the egg...


'tis better to be a smart-ass than a dumb-ass...

The dog eats my dropped eggs, delicately spitting out bits of eggshell.

They do come in handy around the house.

Yep, salt works well on eggs on the floor. I know, I do it often. :/

It took me so long because I gag a lot. Slimy raw eggs do me in.

And then I had to clean the spot on the floor where I missed the garbag can with a slimy paper towel.

And then I just decided to mop the entire floor.


When I say I am a klutz, I mean it. *sigh*
