If you’re broke, like me last Tuesday, you reach for baking soda. It’s the cheapest therapy you can buy. After you’ve blotted up the wet mess, dump a thick, glorious layer of baking soda on the spot. Let it sit for at least an hour. Go watch a movie. Make a sandwich. The baking soda is like a sponge for bad decisions.
Then, vacuum it up. If you’re lucky, the smell goes with it. If not, you have to accept that the pee has gone deep. That’s when you need the heavy artillery.
