Poetry On Odyssey: 'Two In The Bush'
http://7-themes.com/6851407-bird-in-hand.html

Eyes flutter open, and the chirp of birds fill the room,

Stumbling to the counters, dirty dishes line the counters

The sink is overflowing with trash and misplaced food

Rays of sunlight blanket all the disarray and the chirp of birds fill the room,


Washing away the mess of yesterday, while the chirp of birds fill the room,

Cleaning the counters and hiding any visible uncleanliness

Scrubbing the stains of week old food, while the chirp of birds fill the room,

Slamming the cleaning utensils down, while the chir-


A rock is thrown and all is left is a sparkling house,

The nag of that beating noise has dissipated,

And the mind is at rest until...

The chirping begins again.

Toilet Troubles

"So, usually I would never go on a Tinder date but when you are out with girlfriends and a hot Bosnian guy says he wants to hang with you and his friends, you oblige. We head to their apartment and when I realized I may pee my pants if I don't find a bathroom soon. I ask for the bathroom and a friend of my tinder date shows me to it and said in all seriousness that I was not allowed to flush the toilet under ANY circumstances. Having a few drinks--or five--I relieved myself to, nevertheless, flush the toilet. Within seconds, his bathroom was flooded and towels were laid out everywhere to catch the toilet water. To say the least, we were not invited back"
