My oh my! A laundry fly!
Boyfriend: "Baby?"
Me: "mmmh?"
Boyfriend: "Um, you didn't check my pockets before you did the laundry!"
(boyfriend holds up a curious empty plastic package)
Me: "What is that? Was that gum?" (suddenly I realize that it WAS NOT gum) "Oooooooh no! This is bad!"
Me: "Ok, very, very carefully pull out the clothes one by one. I think we are looking for 3 flies." (these would be MY flies from fishing in Denver. My boyfriend had pocketed my back-up flies as they did not fit in my pockets)
I found all three flies before anyone got hurt. I still think this is a better laundry accident than the time I sent a $15 Macanudo cigar through the washer and dryer before realizing it. Tobacco leaf bits EVERYWHERE!

Thank heavens it wasn't gum! Oh that would have been horrid!
Oh lordy! Only you would make that kind of laundry mistake. Ha! It's a good thing you found them before donning on a pair of barbed socks.
P.S. Pretty Flys
One time...I forgot I had a certain "pill" in my pocket and I went dancing. The pill smashed in my pocket and turned to nothing but dust in my pocket.
What a waste of 15 bucks.
Have you ever left vitamins in your pocket? They dissolve and glue your pocket together! And it takes forever to get it all washed out!
No, but when I was a young girl--maybe in the 3rd grade, I found a tiny little blue egg at recess. I put the egg in my pocket for safe keeping. The tiny blue egg broke in my pocket. It was gross. I was sad.
I spilled a cup of coffee into my purse this week. That's kind of like the pocket thing isn't it? I think the worst is chapstick, and it makes those grease marks on everything.
Yes, purses are pockets. BIG pockets that you hang over your shoulder. I don't know why they call them purses, they should call them shoulder pockets.
Aaaaaah! Shoulder pockets! I love it!
