    back in the forever-ever ago days, you could visit walmart and go to the little travel/toiletry sections and they'd sell these mini bottles of aerosol spray lysol. like the size of your hand maybe.

    obviously they've been out of stock with any regularity for months now.
    but if you're able to get a hold of some of those mini bottles again someday, they're perfect for keeping in your purse or pocket or whatever.

    that way if you need to go to the bathroom in public somewhere and the toilet is a horror show, you can at least spray it down easily and feel confident you're not getting someone else's butt cooties.

    Never get involved romantically/physically with a co-worker.

    i think this could be dependent on a few things

    like i figure its generally okay if they don't work in the same office directly, like if your business is spread out over multiple buildings etc etc.

    and tbh i've done that before with people in the same office too, and it still worked out okay anyhow. but then i was already planning on quitting eventually and had an exit strategy. and the relationship itself was really good for a long time after.

    If a restaurant has "Burger" in the name, stick to their *kitten* burgers OK?

    There's always that one dingbat in your party who tries to out-foodie everyone and orders the clam chowder at a *kitten* International House of Pancakes. It's usually on the last page of the menu way down on the bottom corner too. Everyone hands in their menu really confused like WTF? They serve clam chowder bowls here? And dingbat has this stupid smirk on their face like "Aha! Didn't see that on the menu, did ya guys! 😀"

    20 min later you're sharing your pancakes with the goofus.

    Yes...Did You Know? Garlic is a biennial, but will act like a perennial since the new cloves will grow the following year.

    go buy some of this from Sally's Beauty or Amazon (only two places i know who carry it regularly):

    spray your razors down with it after you're done shaving each time. safety razor, mach 5, electric clippers, doesn't matter. it'll disinfect the blades and protect them so they stay sharp longer too.

    I haven't matched socks in about 3 yrs and I have to say how liberating it is to just reach in the drawer and just pull out a pair.

    Those window blinds that are cheap and a pain to wash? They're actually disposable. :wink:
