This post brought to you by the number 2.5 and the letter YYYYYY!?!

So we’re just over a week from moving into our new place.  The place that I am so excited about. The place with an ocean view and the whole beach for our backyard. And a nice big kitchen. And new appliances that don’t squeal like a stuck pig when operating!  I can hardly wait! 

Another feature that is HUGE (for me) is that we will have 2.5 bathrooms! That is exactly 1.5 bathrooms MORE than we had at our last place and I could not be happier.  The hubby thinks this excessive bathroomage is over the top. But he is generally pleased that there is more than one place to pee.

Until yesterday. Yesterday the hubby started making crazy suggestions.  And not the “wacky” kind of crazy either. We’re talking drooling in a straightjacket, eating your own feces, LOCK ME UP ‘CAUSE I’M ONE HELLA CUH-RAY-ZAY EM-EFFER!

Yes, he actually suggested we use one of the bathrooms for a purpose other than bathroom-type activities. Like a storage room. A STORAGE ROOM! 

Someone call the looney-bin because my husband is officially certifiable. Clearly the stress of the last few months has caused his break with reality.

Here’s how the conversation went:

The hubby:

“I’ve been thinking…” *drools, wipes away drool* “What if we used one of the bathrooms for storage space? 2.5 bathrooms is a lot of bathroom. There must be some way to repurpose one of those rooms. Like turn it into a fitness center? Or how about a yoga salon? Hey! Hey! How about a karaoke bar??! BLAAAAABLBBLBLBBLBLBBBLAAAA!!!!”  

Me:

Have you lost your ever loving mind? I am finally going to have a dream jacuzzi tub and a beautiful double wide shower - both of which will not be available to the kids! We have OUR OWN FULL MASTER BATHROOM! Why would you want to give that up??? We aren’t hard pressed for storage, why would you even suggest such a horrendous thing?”

…or a PETTING ZOO!!! What about that? Some kind of miniature Wild Animal Theme Park?! Or we could use it as a recycling centre for paper and bottles and cans…”

*sigh*

The five year old:

“We could store my dressup clothes in the bathroom!”  *Holy crap! More than one potty to pee in! I can’t wait to try them all!*

The two year old:

*So I could be flushing toys down one of the two upstairs toilets while my mom is fishing out the toys I dumped in the downstairs toilet Awesome!*

    I agree; that is an absolutely ludicrous idea.
