Sham-WOW!

Here's when you know your child has been affected by too much TV and infomercials....this is the dialogue of an actual conversation with Emily:

Emily: Mommy, I spilled juice in my room by accident.

Me: Okay, go get a towel and try to get as much of it up as you can.

Emily: Can I use one of the Sham-Wow's?

Me: Fine, whatever, I don't care.

Emily goes to the towel drawer in the kitchen....

Emily: Mommy, all the Sham-Wow's are dirty.

Me: Okay, so use a regular towel.

Emily: I can't!!!!! A regular towel won't get the spill up as good as the Sham-Wow!!!! Sham-Wow's do the best job!!

Me: Are you kidding me with that????? Just use a freaking towel!!! You are wasting time and letting juice soak into the carpet because you want to use a freaking Sham-Wow!

Emily: Can't I just wait until the Sham-Wow's are clean. Sham-Wow's will work better even if we wait!

Me (Now wanting to strangle that annoying guy from the commercial): What is your obsession???? Just clean up your mess already!!!



Seriously, that Sham-Wow guy must be stopped....I'm burning them all!
