Everyone is a "don't" sometimes. Or: the one where I was in such a hurry I left all my glamour at home.

For those of you who didn’t know it, today was National Clean Your Fridge Day – which, I am sorry, but comes up with these things? And when are they going to come up with a Global “Your House Is A Mess So Get Off The PC” Day? Because that I could actually get on [...]
