This is just silly, but I hate to go in the cupboard under the sink.  Doesn't matter which sink, kitchen or bathroom, the cabinet under it gives me the willies.  That's just a place that if house monsters really existed, that's where they'd live, you know?  Big slimy monsters with goopy stuff dripping off their fingers. 

We've lived here for 20 years, and I don't have any idea what's really under there.  Heck, Jimmy Hoffa could be playing canasta with Amelia Earhart and Sasquatch for all I know.  When I absolutely HAVE to go in there, I open it as little as possible, get what I need to get and slam it shut quick before they can worm their slimy way out of their den.  I only really know what's sitting right in front.  Which is probably why I had to deal with that whole broken grease jar thing.  Everything is crammed right in front because Mimi is a sissy.

Once when B was putting a new faucet in (And that's a post in itself, trust me.), both cupboard doors had to be open for the whole afternoon.  It was horrible.  I stayed out of the kitchen.

This is mostly tongue-in-cheek, of course.  I hike up my big-girl panties and deal with it without too much whimpering.  But I am President Emeritus of NOW--the National Organization for Wusses.

Anybody else have places in their house where the monsters hide?

    Well, I sure don't have slime and goo in my pants, thankyouverymuch! :D

    plenty of monsters where i live .. but atleast they chip in for the rent so not too bad .. and they're not really that bad once you get to know them
     
    on a side note of randomness where do you keep your bin in your kitchen ?
    just wondering because here in denmark its pretty much always in the cupboard under the kitchen sink .. and in most cases the inside of the right hand door (if there are two that is..)

    My monsters always lived under the bed....
     
    My little sister was convinced that there were monsters living in the basement.  As a matter of fact, even today, at 41, she won't go into my mother's basement alone!
  • MissMimi said on Dec 09, 2006....

    Oh yeah, SL, basements are prime monster real estate. I don't have a basement thank God, but I remember the storage room under the basement stairs in the house I grew up in.

    Uocjat, thanks for stopping by! I keep my trash can (it's a covered one) in an out-of-the-way corner of the kitchen. Danish monsters are a bit more civilized that mine--mine won't even chip in for groceries. :D

    qp, I relate. No open cupboards, and no open curtains after it gets dark!

    Not any more, though for a long time I was convinced they lived under the bed.

    Mimi
    always happy to stop by when i can contribute with the wonders of randomness
     
    but tell me now that you have your  covered container of waste depositness is this out-of-the.way corner .. how does your poor sink cupboard dwelling monsters eat ?
    maybe if you were a better landlord and provided them with food they'd chip in for groceries and the likes .. maybe even lend a hand around the house now and then ..
    then again then you'd just have to mob up the droolage afterwards..

    I have a monster in my wallet. He (or she) is always eating my money. I am quite sure of it and no amount of argument will convince me otherwise. :D
  • Uocjat said on Dec 09, 2006....
    Source ah that ever dreaded wallet monster .. got one of thoese too .. thing there might be one liveing in my bank account too .. funny thing about them is that they're almost always 100% surely female ...
  • TheSource said on Dec 09, 2006....
    I think you are right. I may need to set some traps and snares to catch her. Maybe one day I will get some of that money back. Not! hahaha

    Hiya MissMimi, nice to meet you too!! I guess I qualify for NOW too because I jumped a mile the other night from a funny noise comng from the table beside the couch where I was sitting. I FLEW into the other room and made Mr. mamie come out and see what it was for me....a little jumpy...it was my cell phone ringing on vibrate (mamie looks sheepish...)
  • MissMimi said on Dec 09, 2006....
    Oh Mamie! LOL I did that a while back. there was a strange noise coming from on top of B's dresser, and I yelled for him to come, and hurry! His beeper was set to vibrate, and it was "walking" across the dresser!
