Weekend Confessional

Welcome to a new feature here on Finding Yourself, The Weekend Confessional. Here you can unload your sins and air your dirty laundry. None of us is perfect and absolution is good for the soul. Step forth my readers and have these burdens lifted from your shoulders.

Forgiven me bloggers for I have sinned. It has been 3 months since I pretended to clean my refrigerator, apparently it has been over 6 months since I have done it for real. It's hard to deny the cold hard facts of expiration dates and liquefied moldy peppers. I found lemon juice that expired in October 2005, yes OCTOBER 2005. Lemon juice keeps for about 9 months so that means this lemon juice has been haunting my fridge for a solid year. To make matters worse, it was not banished to the nether regions of the back of the fridge, nay, it was on the door. Accompanying this grossly outdated lemon juice was another key ingredient for my famous hummus, a yellow pepper. Not just any ordinary yellow pepper, one who might very possibly predate the pyramids.

You can't get that kind of liquidfication and spore activity inside of a few weeks.

I could fill a book with my sins this week but I want to give you a chance to bare your soul. Click on Hail Marys and absolve yourself. If this catches on, the Weekend Confessional will make weekly appearances.

    Forgive me, for I ignored every single phone call that rang into my house last night. LEAVE ME ALONE! Hope it was nothing important, but that's why I have an answering machine for, right?

    Forgive me, oh internet, because I haven't cleaned the upstairs bathroom in so long, I may need to permanently dispose of the shower curtain!

    And BTW, love your new design.

    Forgive me mother, I have sinned. I laid back and TOOK it last night with not much reciprocation!

    I am also guilty of throwing things out in the tuppware container without even looking at it. But my 'fridge is AMAZINGLY clean. It just has spooky things living in perfectly arranged Tuppware.

    I confess that I bought $12 prostitute shoes at WalMart, happy now?

    Yes, the tupperware. Yes, the suspicious growth in the fridge. i would like to confess guilt at buying vegetables but them leaving them too long and not eating them! I really relish the guilt though.

    I found half a lime inside a zip lock in a cuppboard. Who knew with a couple of months of neglect, limes could turn a bright purple? My sins were minor, but the loss of potential G&Ts were catestrophic.

    Ummm...I've never confessed before. Go easy on me.
    I spent most of the week on my ass, on the couch, getting up about an hour before hubby came home so I could clean just enough to pretend I'd been at it all day. And I blamed my 3 year old, claiming she took up too much of my time for me to make a proper dinner and maybe we should have KFC tonight.
    Am I going to Hell?

    You kind of rock, you know? You're soo right, that liquification takes some real dedication!

    p.s. I like what you've done with the place.

    Oh. Tupperware isn't disposable? No wonder its so expensive. Unfortunately I've also thrown away actual plates and bowls filled with never-eaten leftovers and covered with Cling Wrap. I don't confess usually - I'm Jewish and we save the redemption thing for once a year - but this is a good thing - I can tell. WHEW.

    I love the cheaper gladware so it is not as expensive to throw away science expirements. My confession is that I hate cleaning the fridge so much that I never do it, my husband does. He gets grossed out much easier than I do so he always caves first.
