ARGH! I just had to come here to rant.
So I WAS sleepy, had a million things on my mind, and I decided to clean the kitty litter. Yup, and I *had* to buy the cheapest garbage liners earlier today. Anyway, my new kittens have been having diarrhoea after the worming paste and new diet. So I have had to clean out the litterbox more frequently than usual. I was trying this method of putting crystal litter at the bottom for the urine, and paper litter at the top for poo so the kitties don't lick the crystal, but that makes for a heck of a lot of litter - almost to the brim.
So 5 minutes ago, I was trying to empty the contents of one very heavy litter pan into a tiny flimsy garbage bag I got from this asian grocery store. Some spilled over. No big fuss, got another bag and scooped that up.
After what seemed like eternity, I managed to get ALL the litter (plus poop, lots of it) into the tiny bag. Grinning in success, I strode purposefully towards the front door to chuck it in the garbage bin waiting outside.
As I walked past the shoeracks, the bag EXPLODED. I was taken by shock, so I tripped over my shoe (the kittens were playing with my shoelaces earlier) that was lying on its side, fell and slid on the sharp crystals, and managed to smudge some foul smelling kitten diarrhoea into the floorboards (THANK GOD I DON'T HAVE CARPET). In the meantime, I was still holding the exploding bag which had managed to spew its contents in a nice trajectory all across the hallway.
There is
and urine crystals EVERYWHERE!
ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
And the vacuum cleaner is broken.
The kittens watched in amusement as I swept the remains of their breakfast/dinner/lunch/sneks into a corner. I will vaccuum later, borrow beg or steal I will GET THAT MESS OUT OF MY HOUSE. Bath first.
And I'm expecting guests in an hour. The hallway smells TERRIBLE.
Grief.
GROSS!
