Spike's Bitches 46: Don't I get a cookie?
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Thrive to spite them
In all the years people have talked about flylady I never checked out the website.
Ooookay. I can't use that website even if the info is good. One she's just too cutesy and 2 the website need to be updated.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
The Flylady website just has way too many different things to look at at once. I start reading one box, then I notice another box and start reading that, and I have no idea what anything says because I can never finish a sentence.

I find her little winged logo highly offputting.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Yeah, because aren't you supposed to swat flies?
Also, why do I have to wear shoes? A system that requires I put on outside pants and shoes is a system destined to fail for me.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
We found this book very helpful: [link]
It gives you a way to organize when to clean what and lots of time-saving tips. He's quite bossy and thinks his way is the only way, but I just ignore that part. It really helped me clean faster and more efficiently, so I have to spend less time doing it.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda
I don't get the shoes thing either. My dislike of the shoes and clothes is one reason I work at home. Also, when my mother still had the energy, she was a housecleaning machine. The woman used to wash walls. She habitually did all her housework in her pajamas, then got dressed. Sometimes that was at 3 p.m., but she would have done more cleaning in that amount of time than I do in a month.

Seconding Scrappy's book rec, which I had totally spaced the title of! It's actual techniques and advice on tackling cleaning things in a quickie pass vs a more thorough job, with no glurge about how you obviously have no self-respect if you don't keep things clean for your man. I should dig it out from under whatever pile of clutter it lives in.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Purple puddles are happy tears. I like the shiny sink, I think because it's easier to talk myself into cooking food if there's not already a pile of nasty dishes to deal with.
I am going to have to check out Batlady! And the book rec.
