the rix mix

Today's major event so far was dumping an entire cup 'o noodles on the kitchen table & knowing instantly there was no way to minimize the mess. The noodles slopped across the table & under the microwave, the salty broth pouring on the floor. Just let it go, let it go, there's no scooping any of it back into the styrofoam cup, no rush to catch a drip at the edge, it's a broken dam, could've been worse like milk or glass shattering on the floor, just get the sponge & the paper towels & accept the snack is gone & I'm still hungry but it's all going to take 15 or 20 minutes of concentrated clean up. Bag up the wet mess & bring it right out to the garbage can.
