Oh my God. The Old Spice guy is responding to Twitter and YouTube comments. It's hilarious!
Illyria: Wesley's dead. I'm feeling grief for him. I can't seem to control it. I wish to do more violence. Spike: Well, wishes just happen to be horses today.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Dana, I hired an independent contractor. I interviewed both services. I don't regret my decision--my cleaner is professional and dependable. She basically does the deep jobs I don't want to do--the bathrooms, mopping floors and sweeping the stairs, etc. She also does other jobs in rotation--like cleaning windows and ceiling fans as needed.
She's also very flexible when I need to reschedule and will bring in my mail, etc. when we're out of town.

I wonder how flexible a Merry Maids type place would be to using, say, more green or unscented cleaning products? That would be an issue for me.

Our wings are not tired.
I use a women's co-op that only uses green cleaning solutions. The money goes straight to the licensed and bonded cleaners. Their hourly wage is close to mine.

I was sad that the green company I tried via Groupon was not good. Even though they were pricey, I would've gladly used them.

all I could think of was all those guys who said fishnets, even flesh toned, always made them think of sex.
They're 17, right?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Maid Brigade uses all green products. I was happy using them, but the quality of the cleaning services depends on the franchise owner. I did have a problem with several different independent contractors having crises in their lives that led them to not show up, want to cry on my shoulder, ask for advances on their money or, in one notable case, drink my beer.

Most men I know see fishnets and think SEX. They may be outliers, though.

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

Nah, my age. So now I see fishnets and think of men thinking of sex...and I don't wear them during the day anymore.
