I'll clean your bathroom.

Wow, how I have missed things like promising scary internet people I'll happily clean their bathroom.

PMM and Teppy need a show. Killing me.

Steph:

I just had a weird conversation with my Mom where she mentioned, in an oh-so-casual-but-not-casual-enough way, that it would be okay if I were a lesbian.

I apparently need a boy toy to flaunt around to maintain my hetgirl cred with my damn family. Honestly. You don't date for, what, 2 1/2 years, and your family thinks you're gay?

PMM:

Heh. What did you tell your mom?

Steph:

This is a direct quote: "I still like dick."

Its very hard, after spending most of my internet time on Facebook in recent years, to live without a like button. I need something bigger than a like button. A great big glittery button that plays a jaunty tune when pressed?

See? one person's abhorrance (i.e., the vacuum) is another's reasonably do-able chore.

This a why it is conversation #85. It is boggling that others will happily do what we loathe and loathe what we'd happily enough do but then you think about it and it's Running a Home Tetris. We could totally have Buffista Island if we made all the pieces fit.

Callaluna, agreed!

I finally got a vacuum that makes me like vacuuming. Will gladly trade services for a good mopping!

I don't mind vacuuming, and I can handle dishes and laundry with only minimal complaint. But I hate dusting. It just doesn't happen at my place unless I'm gonna have people over and it's reached the point of terminal embarrassment. I love gardening, though.

My food that was supposed to be delivered today actually got delivered today! I'm surprised. And it looks pretty good, too -- this is a place that sends you a week's worth of frozen meals at a time. (The next few months are ridiculously busy for me, and I'm just not going to have the time or the energy to cook, so getting a box of meals that I just need to heat up seemed like it could work.) The portion sizes look kind of small, but I'll see how it goes. Tomorrow, I've got a muffin for breakfast, lentil soup for lunch, and maple-glazed tofu with kale and cauliflower for dinner, and some granola for a snack.

Tomorrow, I am absolutely going to clean up my living room. I think I'll have to do the thing again where I say on Facebook that I'll post a photo at a certain time. I can't get myself to stick to it unless I've got some kind of deadline.

As long as someone does my ironing and runs stuff to/from the dry cleaner, I will HAPPILY take on any other household chores.

I hate all chores. Well maybe not hate, loathe and try to do without.

And damnit i forgot to buy a new dustpan AGAIN. I need one my other disappeared and using a piece of cardboard isn't really cutting it. Mr. R fell down on hard floor vacuuming as well.

My pants from Land's End came today! They are going to be returned to Sears on Monday! I don't know how, but they are about a half size too small in the waist and feel like a size too big every where else. However the thermaskin long underwear is great.
