dirty soap...

so i'm washing my hands and the bar of soap literally jumps out of my hands. ya know, like in the cartoons where the cat goes to grab the fish and it just sort squirts (that word is so wrong...kinda like moist. it just. eww.) out of the cats paws. maybe i just made that up. don't really know. but you get the idea.

so the soap squirts (i really need a thesaurus) out of my hands and after bouncing on the counter and the back of the toilet, lands with a splash in the toilet bowl.

so now here's the dilema...how exactly do you clean soap? i mean normally, if you drop something in the toilet you wash it. unless it's like a toothbrush or hairbrush or any sort of brush really. then you should just throw it out. unless it's a toilet bowl brush. that's a different story. but anyway, if you drop something in a toilet you wash it with soap. but what's the protocol when it's the soap that goes for a swim in the kiddie pool?

it's good soap. aveda. come on, that shiznit's expensive. (the girls have my back on this one) so, yeah. i don't so much wanna throw it out. and it's not like there was anything in the toilet. so do i just wash it off with hot water? do i get another bar of soap and clean the soap with soap? wait. no. yeah. that's right. i think. there were too many soaps in that sentence. suds...clouding...my...head.

whatever, at least now my toilet water is clean. and maybe, just maybe, when i flush, the stirring action will make the now soapy water into a bit of bubble bath.

or something.

damn nyquil!

I would definitely keep that expensive soap and just rinse it off with hot water. That way the outer layer will disappear and Voila (sp?) you will have clean soap again!! YAY! Ha, that sounds funny...clean soap!

First of all, did you say, "...normally, if you drop something in the toilet you wash it." Exactly how often do you drop something in the toilet? I don't recall ever dropping anything in the toilet, besides the proverbial "children", but anyway....

Secondly, I think it's necessary to inquire about the cleanliness of said toilet. How often is the toilet sanitized? It seems to me that if the bowl itself is of a sanitary state, and we've already established that the water was clean, then it's really not that different than your soap floating in a bathtub that hasn't been Scrubbing Bubbled in a few weeks.

Thirdly, might I suggest liquid soap? This way you can display a pretty little soap dispenser and and the same time secure your soap's safety........but then again, from the sounds of it, you'll figure out some way to pitch it in the pot.
