Freak whiteout accident
« on: May 07, 2004, 01:30:14 PM »
Little freak accident with the whiteout just now. I picked it up tto fix something on this huge project that has to be done right away, and in my hurry I didn't realize the top wasn't screwed on all the way, and it went *everywhere*. My hair, my sweater, my favorite khaki capri pants. :-[  I look like I've been painting.  

And I can't take the time to go and change because I need to get this project done.  :P

Or, since it looks like paint, you could always say that you were helping a little old lady paint her house.

I looked at stain-removal sites and many said rubbing alcohol, but that didn't work. So I'm hoping that Shout will do it. Looking at it a few days later now, it's not that noticeable, so maybe the clothes will last a little while longer, at least till I can afford to replace them. I don't have a very big set of summer work clothes. That was my only pair of capris.

Oh well. I'm over it.

Just remember it could have been worse - it could have spilled all over your project. :o

Yeah, but do you think she really wants to freeze himself to get white out to go away?
