A working dishwasher is a glorious thing indeed.
Especially considering that SF does compost collection.
That's the best, man. I'd love curbside compost collection.
Almost as good is that the city picks up yard waste every other week from April through the second week of January (so people with live Christmas trees can put them on the curb), and that is a goddamn delight.
My lower back doesn't want to stretch out despite me throwing yoga at it. V. annoying. Why even *do* yoga, I ask you.
Timelies all!
I need to take the vacuum cleaner to be repaired. It doesn't have much suction going on. There's a little when it's in floor mode, but none when I try to use the attachments.

Ours had this problem and Emmett started taking it apart and discovered it was clogged with hay from the piggy cage.
One of the great luxuries of San Francisco living is I can leave a spoon with honey on it in the sink and it won't have roaches on it two minutes later.
But what about ants? Because around here that's how you get ants.
Yay dishwasher! They are the best. I need to rinse because I don't run it more than once a week, basically.
ION, on 911 Lone Star, Gina Torres's character is dating her new minister, DB Woodside. Well, my church is going to be hiring a new minister, and this is just giving me IDEAS. (Although the odds my church would hire a straight man are pretty low.)
Oh that’s definitely how you get ants!
We pay for a private company to pick up our compost but it’s worth it. You can drop off at a place at the farmers market but I can’t stand the smell

Nope. No ants. Except in winter if it's been exceptionally wet they'll try to come indoors but otherwise SF is relatively bug free.
Yah, we have no ant issues. But, I mean, I put the stuff right into the dishwasher. If it's in the sink, then, yeah, I'm soaking it or something.
I support having a dishwasher. I have heard they work better on dirty dishes but living alone I feel like if I put dirty dishes in there, by the time I run it, the food will be crusty and surely that’s harder to get off? I do probably need a new dishwasher soon, given that all my appliances are something like 17 years old. (I also should replace my water heater but what I really want is for someone else to figure it all out (calling places getting quotes reading reviews making appointment) and just have me pay for it.
