Picture this:
What you hear: *splat* *crash* *wahhhhh*
What you smell: chocolate
What you see: 2 year old who has vomited the m&m’s he stole this morning (splat), stepped in it, slipped and fallen into it (crash, wahh), rolled over and is trying to navigate out of the vomit (which he is now covered in head to toe) while crying hysterically.
What you realize: the washing machine is beeping because it is *again* malfunctioning.
