Hee. You and your hatred of the vacuum.
You can't hear if monsters are sneaking up on you while you are vacuuming! Vacuum hatred is totes logical!

[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.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
I will do damn near any household chore EXCEPT unload a dishwasher. I hate it. However, I will put dishes that have air dried away, no problem.

That's awesome, erika!

Aims, oddly enough, I have the opposite problem. The air-dried dishes will stay on the dishmat until I dirty them again, sometimes.

The status is NOT quo.
I have no issue with vacuuming. Putting away laundry or dishes is the worst.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
I don't mind putting away laundry, so long as I have enough room to do so. Our current place is so dinky and I hates it, Precious, and Now I hate putting clothes away.
My dreams are small: a house with an upstairs, a bedroom big enough that I don't have to side step my way to my bed and still get bruises on my thighs from the pokey bits on the top of the posts on the bed. Which always result in horrid bruises. This might also have to do with the size of said thighs but I won't say one way or the other.

Compassionately intolerant
This is fascinating.
How interesting to hear everyone's preferences.
I'm no good with floors, though I finally found a vacuum I quite like.
I don't like mopping, even sweeping. Since I think I have the genes of someone appearing in a movie about a small Italian town, I love shaking linens out second floor windows and will scrub a floor on hands and knees over using a mop.
That last one I attribute to The Song of Bernadette. I was an impressionable, romantic child.
I love folding laundry and enjoy hand washing dishes...hey, warm water and a clean finished product. What is not to like?
Usually, I delay cleaning the tub, but the outcome always makes me happy and it never seems as hard as I imagine it will be.
Windows? Frustration on a stick. Vacuuming the stairs? Torture.

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."
Aims, this is a lot of our problem too right now. Our apartment has one regular closet and two half closets. I threw the hissiest of fits before a wedding this summer trying to find two matching shoes that were pretty. I'm not proud. Things were thrown.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I iron on a semi annual basis, and sometimes for special occasions. Otherwise, if it needs ironing, it doesn't get worn. (Ironically, when I worked sewing costumes, I loved using the industrial iron.) Mopping and putting things away. They're what I hate.
I am having a big turkey dinner for friends on Sunday. I forgot to take the turkey out of the freezer until today. There will be turkey baths in my future. I was also supposed to be off on Monday, but it looks like I will be going into work, because my boss can't be arsed to email or call during work hours.
