But wait - there's more! I also had a paintbrush wrapped in plastic for over 2 weeks because I was too lazy to clean it but yesterday I needed to do a little more painting with the same color so I was able to use the already saturated brush.

What I learned from this? That I'm already performing at the highest level and nothing needs improvement.

One of my favorite things is cleaning stubborn dry erase marker off the board using another dry erase marker.

    You can even remove permanent marker off the board with that.

    There's something so satisfying about using the moisture of newly spilled liquid to clean up dried old spilled liquid. It's somehow more satisfying than cleaning up each spill in a timely manner.

    Full judgement for using the sock you were presumably wearing to clean up a spill.

    You monster.

    I just had to remove nail polish from a hardwood floor, courtesy of my teenager. I used nail polish remover. Should I have simply tried to pour more nail polish onto it?

    Yes. And, you should use your sock to mop it up. Preferably one you're wearing at the time.

    I'm getting second hand exhilaration, imagining the moment you realized it was close enough to execute that maneuver.
