my best college girls and i got together last weekend. when we are together, we try to solve the world's problems. we're pretty good at it. the conundrum of the year... the stuck cup... watch closely...
that there cup. it's stuck. and i don't mean just a little stuck. like real stuck. the teacher, the doctor, the architect, the accountant. we were all stumped by it. stuck, i tell you. stuck.
we tried shear will. we tried dish soap. still stuck.
we even tried WET dish soap. stuck.
we tried vegetable oil. say it with me. still stuck.
we tried putting it through the dishwasher. we tried putting it in the freezer. stuuuuuuck. and then, we called in a lifeline. and called the rocket scientist husband of the architect, who knew there must be a solution...
... and then we did it. we filled the sink with HOT water, and the inner (stuck) cup with ice water. and after a few minutes...
IT WORKED!! we felt like we had REALLY accomplished something. i screamed with joy so loudly that it scared the baby! ha. it was awesome!
and then we celebrated by going out for pedicures... i have the greatest friends.

oh, and please weigh in... what do you see in the pattern on my pj pants?
beer mugs.
I'm not sure what is more funny...the fact that you guys worked so hard to "un-stick" them or the fact that you took pictures of you trying to "un-stick" them! ha!
Either way...AWESOME! I heart your friends too! They are pretty cool cats!
Stuck, stuck, stuck! Remind you of anything? or anyone? lol Funny story and great pictures.
I really love your story. It has enlightened my mine. I would have never thought of the opposite temperatures working. I was smiling throughout the story. Thank You very much.
Candy is stuck on your pants.?? Or mugs.
Story that this reminds me of: Pooh and the line "Pooh sure is stuck."
P.S. that was enlightened my mind (see above) and Winnie the Pooh story. lol
also, i'd like to take this moment to say that the architect's husband is an absolute genius.
and he's hot.
Very funny, very funny indeed!
my vote on the pants is a root beer float....
My vote on your pj's is hot rollers (curlers)!?
My husband, the CERAMIC engineer (ie specialist in GLASS) is very jealous that he wasn't consulted.
