Brooke & her boyfriend have been going out now for about 7 months, so over the course of that time he has gotten to know more and more about the family and our household. You know, at the beginning when I knew Joey was coming over I cleaned. I picked up, dusted (a little), vacuumed, made sure dishes were in the dishwasher, etc. Then, as time went on, I would straighten up and vacuum. Now, I throw the crap in my bedroom and pick up the globs of dog hair from the hallway.
A few weeks ago he was here and, based on that visit, I think there will be no future effort made whatsoever to try and mask the truth of who we are and how we live. First, we were down to one roll of toilet paper for the 3 bathrooms. So he heard the announcement that the only bathroom with toilet paper would be the main bathroom on the first floor. Then Brooke called me to tell me that Zoey was eating toilet paper in her room (where she and Joey were hanging out). I mean really! We did not have enough toilet paper in the house for her to be consuming it! Sadly, the toilet paper she was eating was from the trash having previously been used by someone to blow their nose or something. Gross! Then, as I went into the upstairs bathroom to throw away the dog-chewed toilet paper I realized, to my horror, that there was dirty laundry on the floor. I had sorted and only gotten to one load...the other load was all over the bathroom floor! Thank God there is no toilet paper in that bathroom and he would have had to use the downstairs! Dammit. He's a guy. He doesn't need toilet paper!
Anyway, he now has TMI and I now just hope that she keeps him around for a while so he doesn't feel the need to blab about our disaster of a household. We certainly can't have an ugly break up that results in lots of bitterness on his part. Hell, if they don't get married I may be in the market for some memory erasing drugs to slip in his drink!
