This money, it is too much. You should have some small refund.

[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.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"

The shift from sex talk to cleaning talk is amusing. On the other hand, they're not so far apart. I am totally turned on by a clean house.

Ooh! Me too!! I can't have the bedroom or bedroom closet door open due to the shadows they throw.

Oh yeah, having to control lighting and shadows in the bedroom is a bitch. We have a streetlight just outside our window, and once when the curtains had fallen open a bit, this led to me seeing writing all over the walls. Which was at least fascinating.

Hahaha!

Ginger, that sounds awful. I am out of the loop, but I am gathering you have cancer of some type? I don't even know what type or how long you've been dealing with it, but listening to how matter-of-fact you are about horrible and invasive treatments lets me know you've been braving it for a long while. I'm sorry you have to be so brave. Stupid cancer.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

I just sent my boss off to lobby on Capitol Hill with "have fun storming the castle". Don't know if he got the reference or if it even registered. Just as well.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

We have a fabulous woman come clean our place every two weeks @ $80 per cleaning. Best money we spend. I'd let SO SO many things go before I'd let cleaning go. Now we'll have to find another fabulous someone in NC cause we? AREN'T CLEANING!

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Mom's Xmas gift to me was someone to come clean once a month for a while. Now I have two white, fluffy, quite sheddy pets and a poorly insulated house in a windy desert with clay dirt so it's not take all the housework away but, god, the idea that the actual corners and sills will be cleaned? Bliss. Having to call people, less so but still really worth it. I vacuum and then a white fluff dust bunny rolls down the hall as I put the vacuum away. At least I'll know it's cleaned well once a month.

The status is NOT quo.

Hee. You and your hatred of the vacuum.

Thrive to spite them

Dad got me a roomba. It's awesome. I still need to use the regular vacuum at times but for the most part I let Mr. R does his thing and think "Oh Puddin' you're awesome ".

It's the worst household task EVER.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

No, I vote vacuum. I'll sweep and mop before I vacuum. I'll scrub the bathroom floor on hands and knees before I vacuum. Hate.

I kinda like vacuuming. The very worst chore in my opinion is putting away laundry. Dishes follow close behind.
