Not a good morning

Yesterday was spent cleaning the apartment because my family will be visiting next weekend and I am kind-of a slob without motivation. Especially when I'm scrambling to do other things. The apartment has been in a state that usually corresponds to the end of the semester, though it's been in that state for much longer than it should have been.
One of the things that I did was do a cleaning of my bathroom. This included putting out more than the two towels I usually use everyday (one for drying and a separate one for drying hair). Most times I clean the towels, stackthem in the linen closet, and then pull them out when I need them. This means that I tend to use the towels on the top of the stacks and almost never use the ones on the bottom.
Little did I know this was a problem.
With the putting out additional towels so my bathroom looks a little less "college dorm room" and a little more like "responsible adult lives here," I had gone through the top layers of towels. That left the bottom layers. The bottom layers and the older, slightly more ragged towels, but they are still usable. I picked one up after my shower and began to dry off.
Only to notice that it smelled. Huh. The towels on the bottom of the stack hadn't been used in awhile, but they shouldn't have gotten musty. In fact, the smell was very familiar and very distinct.
It was at that moment that I noticed the large piece of mummified cat poo was attached to the towel I was using. Who knows how long it had been there? Awesome. After scrambling to find another towel, I finished getting dried and dressed. Only now I have to do another round of laundry because I am washing every single towel on that shelf in case it was contaminated. ARGH. CATS!
It's been a mummified cat poo kind of morning.
