The Confessional – Maggots

Why can’t I let feeding maggots lie?

I wasn’t going to share this.

I wasn’t going to share.

But the story that I want to hide, won’t let me hide it there.

“…hide it THERE.”

I. Don’t. Know.

It rhymed. I was going for Dr. Seuss-y, and ended up Edvard Munch-y… and he was neither a writer nor a poet, but a painter… So.

*scratching head*

Anynohows. I am a glutton for punishment blogger, not a poet.

OBVIOUSLY.

So. Maggots.

On a day not long gone (say a day six moons past)… I entered my laundry room. To clean it.

I. Know.

I went to grab my daughter’s back pack but was stopped in my tracks. My face wore a look that probably resembled  this:

GAH!

For what I saw… made me scream. “PAULLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!

My husband came galloping in on his steed to save me from the savage many small flies that covered my daughter’s backpack!!!!!

*gag*

He took the bag and made haste with it to the outside.

I followed to find him pulling out a lunch box-bag thing that looked like it had been vomited on. I could not look closely… for my sensitive gag reflex kicked in full gear. I turned away before the reflex could grow into something more heinous.

My husband comforted, “Oh come on!”

I was a good 350 light years away and I could smell the stank from that lunch bag.

*gag*

*gag*

*gag*

And THAT my friends it a small glimpse into my day to day. Maggots. Puppies. Freestyle gagging. No hot water for 2 days.

And whatnot.

See? I give you reasons to love your life. I am here to serve. *bows*

*rubs head*

I just hit my head on my desk as I came up from my bow.

See? Never ends.

Keep up on the ridiculous, the insightful, the always digressive…

    Maggots Shmaggots. I’d still eat at your house, drink coffee at your house, visit you at your house, hang out at your house, and do other stuff that I can’t think of right now at your house. Maggots don’t scare me. Maggots aren’t the boss of me. Down with maggots. Maggots be damned.

    That…was nasty. Thanks for that visual…
    Thankfully my kids tend to only eat half of what I pack them and finish the rest when they return home. And since we went to reusable containers for their lunches (no brown bagging it here!) we have not had rotting lunches forgotten in back packs. I highly recommend that.
