when i heard the scream from the bathroom, i immediately assumed son one (6) had caught his head in the drain or perhaps he decided to bring the radio in the shower with him. i raced into the bathroom to find him standing naked with hair half towel dried. he held a towel with pinched thumb and forefinger as far from himself as possible. the towel was mostly white except for a three inch wide, six inch long swath of brown.
"there's poop on this towel!" he screamed at me. an impromptu family meeting ensued.
currently the poo commission is unable to determine the origins or history of the poo towel. all potential suspects (mother, father, brother and even the victim) were interviewed but no one cracked under the questioning. it remains an open investigation. the poo towel is only one in a streak of crimes against the household. other open cases include the juice stained carpet, the cracker crumb trail, the missing shoe, and the great toilet clogging of 2004 (which the commission believes may be linked to the poo towel incident).
i live in a house of mystery and deceit.
