I think I'm going to need a new vacuum soon. It just doesn't suck as well anymore. I've replaced the belts, will give it a good cleaning, but....
I'm supposed to deliver you to the Master now. There's this whole deal where I get to be immortal. Are you cool with that?

Are you sure that it just doesn't need a new bag/filter?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Ugh, that reminds me that my vacuum smelled like burning the last time I used it.

Bagless. And I cleaned the filters awhile back.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I probably need to clean my vacuum's filter, but I lost the manual and I don't know how. The Internet could help with that, I guess. That's what the burning smell is, right? Dirty filter?
Sometimes I marvel that I've managed to live this long.

These problems do not arise if you just stop vacuuming. The tumbleweeds of pet hair do arise, but there are trade-offs in any strategy.

I should probably warn you guys, I am eating an enormous amount of sugar because there were two cakes and a pie sitting on the counter when I got out of my training session and I will probably try to aim my excess babble toward you guys instead of my co-workers...

Oh, is that right? I was totally just going to replace it. It is a cheap vacuum I've had for ten years, so.

Well, it's soaking in a bucket of water (the vortex-y part.) it'll either help or it's the motor losing its oomph.

Just saw the porkiest damn squirrel. It had a double chin, even. Bet it is one who steal from my birdfeeder.
