This is petty.
I know it is petty and definitely a first
world problem but...
When I recently took Princess to hospital, as I was packing
my toiletries, I carefully packed the spare tube of kid’s toothpaste for myself, rather
than the single tube of grown-up toothpaste that was open on the bathroom
sink.
My reasoning was simple – I didn’t want to take the ‘good’
toothpaste and leave Spunk Rat with the crappy kiddy stuff.
Two weeks later Spunk Rat went to Melbourne for work and he
packed the good, grown-up toothpaste leaving me with the dud kid’s stuff that
tastes of banana (AGAIN). Arrh!
I know this is pathetic and petty, I honestly do, and I also
know that Spunk Rat was oblivious to the fact that I had previously sacrificed
myself and taken the less good toothpaste.
I’m am 100% confident he gave it
absolutely no thought at all.
But still, it was annoying!
So who was right? If you are the one going away for a few days do you have a ‘right’ to the ‘good’
toothpaste?
PS. I do know that the answer is to buy a spare grown-up
toothpaste and keep it in the cupboard but you’re crediting me with more
organisational ability than I currently have!
