Uh oh

Uh oh

Started the ritualistic unpacking of the gifts today. Get 'em out of the packages, try on everything and see that it fits, toss the plastic bags and stuff. Took the shrink wrap off the cologne... and it started dripping. Uh oh.

Seems the bottle took a pretty mean hit and cracked. Good thing it cracked and didn't smash into 3 pieces.

Spent all of the afternoon looking for a good replacement bottle. Supermarkets, wal-mart, I went everywhere... not a single one. Incredible. Not one store had a glass bottle, jar, or container that was airtight and not 2 gallons too big. Finally found a sauce bottle that was just about the right size and it would have to do. Only thing I need to do now is plug the hole to kill the evaporation factor.

The big problem? My whole bathroom smells like this stuff now. And the smell is not going away anytime soon.
