on the drive home tonight, I was really sleepy, so I nestled down in the passenger seat all reclined back and put my feet up on the dash for leverage. I ran them over it often, feeling how slick it was after I had sprayed it down with Armor-All this afternoon to clean it and remove all the dust. When we finally got back to school and I put my shoes on and tried to walk, I couldn't figure out why my feet were so slick inside my sandals. I thought they would slip out of them at some point walking to my room. When I crawled up on my bed a few minutes ago, I looked at them, thinking perhaps my barefoot escapades had left them dusty and thus slippery, but no, my feet glistened.
At that point, the dash and the vinyl cleaning agent all came back to my mind and I realized what was to blame. The chemical had rubbed off on my feet, making them slick and giving them a good sheen to boot!
This makes me think of my younger days when my mom would let my cousin and I pour cornstarch on the kitchen linoleum, and then it was just like we could ice skate! I remember we put on a cassette of Candle in the Wind and it was so cool.
Have you ever been blessed (or cursed) with extreme slipperiness of an extremity? your feet or your hands? (or your head?) Have you ever been the opposite and exceptionally sticky or tacky?
