gluestick or chapstick?

I know I am back at school when I glue stick my mouth. Yes, the other day, while multi-tasking at my desk I noticed my lips were a little on the dry and crackly side. Easy enough to fix, you say? Oh yes, unless you are me trying to do three things at once. Reaching into my right hand drawer while reading and typing on the computer, I grabbed the purple glue stick instead of the chapstick and proceeded to apply to my mouth! Oh dear, a purple smear all over the talking part of my face. I am so glad no one was there to witness my foolish bungle, because I am sure there are those out there who find the idea of my mouth glued shut a very good idea indeed. Into the restroom I hurried to wash the stuff off, using the last two paper towels in the paper towel bin. Come to think of it, why is it there is always a shortage of paper towels when you need them to clean up the really goofy messes you don't want others to know you made? Thank goodness, I was able to slink back to my desk, apply the now needed even more chapstick and continue what I was doing with no one the wiser!! I threw away the offending gluestick and from now on the only glue in my desk drawer will be Elmer's Glue-All!!
