100% Not B.S...At Least For Today.

I know I know, "But Chocolate Milk Girl," you're probably thinking, "So many of your posts are full of B.S.--especially the advice ones!" Well, not today my dear readers. Today I will share with you multiple Really Useful Things To Know.

The first of which is this:

Do you hate it when you have to get up in the middle of the night to get a drink of water and you turn on the light and then your eyes get adjusted to the light, and then you can't see when you try and walk back to your bedroom and you trip on the coffee table and really hurt your shin? Well, here's a simple solution. Keep one eye closed when you turn on the light. The open eye will adjust to the light and allow you to pour your water without spilling. When you're finished, turn off the light. Now close your "light adjusted eye" and open the eye that you have kept closed the whole time. This eye is still adjusted to the dark, and you will be able to see that damn coffee table. It's great!

Useful Fact the Second:

Also, do you hate it when your shoelaces come untied all the time, but also hate it when you tie double knots and they are such a pain to untie? Well, problem solved! When you tie your shoes the regular way, instead of looping once around the 'bunny ear,' loop it twice before you pull it through to make the second 'bunny ear.' This takes a little getting used to, but it holds really really well and unties just like magic! Yay!

Useful Fact the Third:

Do your coworkers steal your lunch from the work fridge? Simply make a delicious sandwich using "Fancy Feast" catfood, lettuce, tomato, and cheese, and leave it sitting front and center in the work fridge. Your coworkers should quickly cease and desist their thieving ways. . . or at least you'll get a nice sense of satisfaction.
