We've all been there.
All you want to do is pour your liquid from a glass to a new location. It's really not that big of a request, and it shouldn't be a big deal. At all.
So in your head, you're picturing this:
Stuff poured. Job done. Check.
That is... until half of your chosen liquid ends up on the counter. Or on the floor. Or, as in my case, on the entertainment center.
WHY does this happen, you may ask? It's all due to one thing.
The Dreaded Dribble
Doesn't just seeing it make you antsy to go get a rag and clean up the mess??
It's awful. And I hate it.
I have two small house plants on my entertainment center. Sometimes I secretly wish they would die so I wouldn't have to deal with the mess watering them creates.
Without fail, every time I water those buggers I end up with water on the plant, on the pot, on the furniture, and sometimes on the floor.
I almost broke down and bought myself one of these more than once.
While I have to admit, this one looks kinda cool. I have a couple of problems.
1. I like my money. Especially when it pays for things like food. And school. Not water transportation devices.
2. I live in 3/4 of a tiny house's basement. WHERE would I PUT something like that when I'm not using it? I know myself. I would end up putting it somewhere "out of the way" which translates to "somewhere I'm not going to bother trying to find it when I need it".
Yeah. Not happening.
So today, I realized that it was once again time to meet Dreaded Dribble; because, let's face it, I really don't have the heart to kill these plants.
(I really need to work on how easily I feel guilt.)
So I'm putting off watering the plants. I tidy up. I put a few things away. I unload the dishwasher. Then I.... wait... is that a water bottle?? OH MY GOSH THIS IS THE ANSWER TO MY DREADED DRIBBLE PRAYERS!
I feel pretty genius for figuring out that my water bottle is almost completely dribble-free. Seriously, if you have Dreaded Dribble problems, you need to try this. It'll change your life.
What? I have to water those little green monsters? Piece of cake.
Bring it on.
