Oh great..now the bedroom smells like RUBBING ALCOHOL

[TheOtherVillainess]

DH had the rubbing alcohol out and was doing something..depressurizing a pimple I suppose. Anyway..he managed to spill half the bottle on the bed. We can't turn the mattress over because of the pillow top. Well..I suppose we could, but then there'd be no more cushy,comfy pillow top which we paid buckoo bucks for.

So...we strip the bed and I stick the dirty linens in the washer. Problem is..he got it on the comforter too. I am taking it as a sign we need to go to Sears and buy some of that yummy new bedding in the Ty Pennington collection.

So now the comforter is airing out in the living room and the sheets are in the wash. And I refuse to go into the bedroom until it airs out a bit because it STINKS like rubbing alcohol in there. I can't see how DH can stand it..oh wait. Yes I can. He's asleep. You could run a freight train through the bedroom and he wouldn't notice.

Spray some frebrez and burn some candles and tarts.

I wouldn't suggest turning it anyways...it will evaporate by tommorow. Wake his butt up and whine at him.

If he weren't asleep I would. It's almost IMPOSSIBLE to wake him up (short of shoving him out of bed) once he goes to sleep.

I'll have to ask him to go get some Febreeze tomorrow. It stinks in there. Wooh.

I'd burn candles but we don't have any. Nope..not a single one. Because I am a fire hazard. If it can be set on fire..I've set it on fire accidentally. Toasters, shirts,shoes, my own hair..all of them on fire. Not all at once,though, thank goodness.

[OK!]

Must be the night for wretched smells because I--someone who has never, ever, EVER burned a bag of microwave popcorn in her LIFE--just absolutely incinerated a mini-bag. (I'd put it in, gone into the bathroom for something for a sec, and got all distracted futzing with my hair. ) Realized what'd happened, sprinted to the kitchen, and opened the microwave to actual clouds of billowing smoke. Seriously. So now I've got all of the windows open to try to get rid of the stench and consequently am slowly freezing to death. Bah.

Ewww, I hate the smell of rubbing alcohol!! It reminds me of vaccinations.

I hope your bedroom will smell nice again soon. All this talk of fires creeps me out though, since I just saw a story on TV about a lady who had been horribly burned because she had put rubbing alcohol on her skin and then lit up a cigarette without thinking. It was horrible. I'm sure rubbing alcohol is not flammable like that once it's completely dry and the vapors are gone but please be careful anyhow!

I like the smell of rubbing alcohol. I know, weird. LOL.

 

[TheOtherVillainess]

I think I'd rather smell rubbing alcohol than burnt popcorn....That is an aweful smell that lingers.

Good Luck!

Wake that man up and tell him you want to play "Doctors & Nurses"!

I don't mind the smell of rubbing alcohol but the smell of burned popcorn is very offensive to me. My brother burned popcorn in the microwave just a few days ago and the fragrance still lingers

Drs and nurses?
