why is it that my car always looks like this??!! it drives ed crazy but there are some necessities that a girl needs: diet coke (from a fountain), chapstick, pen, pencil, black sharpie, coupons, gift cards, sunglasses, lotion, money, hairbands, clips, tissues, picture of ed and i, wallets of the kids-including traci's boys, old routing slips from the bank-just in case i need to suddenly check how much money i have in there-actually more like how much i can spend on ebay and etsy w/o ed noticing a huge difference ;\...and that's just the front. but i can't possibly put any of this stuff in the console because it's full: extra-strength excederin, aleeve, pepto-bismol tablets, children's tylenol, pads of paper, more pens, deposit slips, whistle-in case i get sucked into doing recess duty at school, tons of aaa batteries (for the wireless headphones-all 5 pair-wouldn't want those to go dead!!), candy, tissue nippers, brush, emergency medical kit, spray air freshener (smell is a HUGE issue for me!!), band-aids, more hairbands and clips (4 of us girls ya know!), a rubberband, paper clips, napkins, case for the gps, 1 piece of emergency dark chocolate-which i never eat because then i'd have no more for an emergency-ok a little psycho, but at least i admit it...it's the first step! (i'm not even going to get into the back of the truck and the stale 1/2-eaten bagels...). and then there's my friend janice who's car looks like she just bought it-even with 3 kids!! she never leaves anything in it-how is that possible??!! i've read about people like her ;)
well, gotta go-i'm on my way out to get a diet coke...
