burning in the bathroom

sometimes when people go in the bathroom, they leave it smelling unfresh. this is why our bathroom always has candles. we light them whenever the need arises or drops by. sometimes we let the candle(s) burn while unattended to overwhelm the bathroom with beautiful aromas.

candles dont always behave though. one time when blowing out the flame with too much force, blue wax flew out all over the toilet. this took some torching to remedy. but nothing compares to the situation we have now. the candle was vanilla with 3 wicks. those 3 wicks turned into infinitie wicks, and one day while the vanilla candle was burning out by itself, the bazillion wicks melted the wax and it broke through the walls of the candle. it began to flood the paper plate on which the candle stood, and began dripping onto the toilet and then the floor. this waterfall kept running until there was probably enough wax on the floor to make three 64 pack boxes of crayons.

these boxes of crayons would be rather monochrome though. a vanilla candle is yellow, now that it has melted onto the floor it does not make the bathroom look very clean. i would take a picture, but i assume you could figure out what it looks like.

burn baby, burn.

ew + uh oh. but, hey, you should invent the crayon that smells like pretty stuff [such as vanilla]. i heard that crayola once came out w/ a special box of colors of skin. you could make one w/ all those colors and name them stuff like Latte, Coconut, Hazel Nut, Fresh Cream, etc. etc. P.S. in my Psychology class on Friday, we learned that the #2 odor that humans can recognize is a Crayola crayon. #1 being Johnson's Baby Powder.

i think i would make edible crayons, since i always ate them as a child anyways.
