I have a sequined cowgirl hat!

Even a roomba feels like too much work to use most of the time. I have to clean it out so much and that's a pain in the ass.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

When I was diagnosed with my allergies I was told to vacuum every day. A Roomba is the only way I can approximate that.

My living room/kitchen is now tidy enough for Roomba to go nuts, but the bedroom is a tip.

My bedroom is easy for the roomba. The livingroom, there's a couple of spots I routinely have to rescue it from [and why does it ALWAYS head right back to where it got stuck/wedged/trapped?!I have a masochistic roomba?] and a lot of arranging I have to do. I've been using it a lot in the bedroom because the kitten can make a mess from nothing.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That's because you're a rockstar.

Compassionately intolerant

Given the dog hair and basic crapitude of my carpet's quality, the roomba would only be able to do 3 square feet before filling up I fear. Otherwise, I'd love it considering my herculean hatred for vacuuming.

Obviously there needs to be a robot that cleans out roombas.

And Jesse's doesn't have sequins -- that's how we know she's a cowgirl.

She's old school, or ranch I suppose.

In domestic news, Emaryn came home with a 'think sheet' last night. Apparently, she got a little hyper in line and hurt a boy somehow, I never really understood exactly how it happened. Ironically, it was the boy that she has a bit of a crush on. Love hurts.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

All Roomba discussion reminds me of Sars' Viva La Roombalución! post. That post consistently makes me laugh until I cry. Another Roomba post, with the immortal line of, "Stop! Collaborate and SPIDER!"

GENIUS!

The roomba freaks out my dog and not in an amusing way. In a "I'm going to pace around for a good long while and not settle down and run into things because I'm blind and disoriented" way.
