Vinegar VS Skunk?
I meant to write this on Tuesday when it all took place, but stupid life got in the way of my blogging duties.
I was at an office on Tuesday evening and I had my darling daughter along. She decided to be enquisitive and pick up a container that just happened to have holes in the top and contain a vinegar like/smelling substance. She proceeded to act all girly and drama like, while I tried to find a bathroom and clean up the mess. I found the bathroom first but by then the vinegar had soaked into her shirt all the way up to the elbow. Great. She's whining about the smell and holding her hand out, like it's got 20 spiders on it. I'm just trying to not breath. I get her hand washed and hold paper towels on the sleeve. Have a mentioned the STINK? I grab a few extra paper towel and head back to the scene of the accident. Clean up what I can. I luckily was on my way out of the building when all this took place, so I could just exit after the spill was cleaned up. In my car it only got worse. It's kinda chilly here and it was dark, 7 pm and I was in a "not so good" section of a neighborhood. I couldn't roll down my window it was too cold. I couldn't turn on the heat, the smell would just get worse. She's complaining of the odor, I'm still holding my breath. I keep telling her that she should not touch things that do not belong to her. I tell her when we get home to take her shirt off. I speed home as fast as legally possible : ) Once in the door the shirt was off, and in the washer immediatly.
I prefer roadkill skunk over kid w/ vinegar on shirt any day of the week.

I've never smelt a skunk or a kid covered in vinegar...
But chips from the chippie covered in vinegar...... Its making my mouth water just thinking about it.
Hmm, dunno what a skunk smells like, dead or otherwise, but as a regular user of acetic acid at work I'll take my chances with the vinegar.
um, I'd have to go with vinegar too...
Ewww. Poor thing!
I think I'd pick skunk. Og course, living in the sticks and smelling them all the time may cause a bit of bias in my area. I hate the smell of vinegar too.
That has to be awful. Did you get the smell out of the car???

nah, skunk is awful, especially when your dog chases one and it gets the sheets you were just going out to retrieve off the line. I think proximity has a great deal to do with it. the closer to the sourse, they are both terrible bad :)
