the old college try

 

that is what i gave cloth diapers.  i even installed a sprayer/bidet on our toilet

because i thought that would make it less disgusting.  i was wrong.

 

i bought 10 cloth diapers with the goal to use a hybrid of cloth and disposable

diapers - only using the cloth at home.  i know a few who use them and really

like them, so i picked their brains, did some research, and bought a few

to start out.  just to see if it was something we would actually be willing to do

before making a large investment.  i took the plunge when richard went out of

town for work, and after two full days of cd's i came to the realization that no,

i'm actually not willing to do them.  bidet or no, i just won't do it.  i'd rather

add to the landfill than deal with spraying runny, mustard-colored turds into

the john every other minute.  not to mention the leaking.  woof.

 

what it boils down to is that we've got a few cloth diapers in case of an

emergency.  but i can't think of an emergency that would be better solved

by using them than just making a quick trip to the store.

 

this was the first cloth diaper we used, and by the look on his face i think

he knew it was a joke.  by the look of the diaper, and my gag reflex,

i should've known, too.
