Is there a statute of limitations on how long the dirty clothes can stay in the pile in the middle of the living room? If there is, I think I may be pushing the limit. That and the sacks of used grocery bags, the hundreds and hundreds of used grocery bags sitting by the front door waiting to go to Whole Foods to be recycled.
I could actually pick up the dirty clothes and take them into the garage where the washer is. OR I could ACTUALLY put them IN the washer. Just a suggestion I’m making to myself. Since, you know, I like clean underwear and I might need some someday.
The downstairs bathroom is not working. That is not that big a deal since we have two of them upstairs, but after a few days, it gets OLD running upstairs every time you need to tinkle. We tend to wait until the last possible second to make the trip which I’m sure is hell on our kidneys but looks really entertaining when the Jehovah Witnesses drop by and get to witness the Pee Dance.
So, you might ask, why haven’t we fixed it yet? Well, a little thing called money, as in, not enough of it quite yet. But soon! Soon there will be fixed bathrooms for all!
Tonight is Barcamp Geek Meetup in Santa Monica. I think we will go. I need more geeks in my life.
ps. Go see Amanda’s head in a cowgirl hat keep popping up in her header.
Have you researched the internet on how to fix your outhouse? I do that quite often, pretty soon I’m thinking I can get a job at an apartment complex as a fixer of things. My education? The internet 6.8 will be my answer.
I completely HATE to climb our stairs, so I would be in bad shape if I had to actually climb them to pee. I am seriously considering putting a slide for coming down and a pulley system for going up. I shit you not. Ask my daughter.
You know, when you wrote this I had already gotten them out of the house.
You know, technically.
*smooch*
but i didn’t’ KNOW you had taken them. i thought they were still there in a heap by the door…..sometimes i am slow to recognize your awesomeness…
Since it sounds like you own your house, I highly recommend a home warranty. The ~$300 a year has definitely been worth it for us, especially last year when our A/C went out and last week when the toilet started leaking. Each visit from plumber, electician, HVAC repairman, only cost $30 or $40 instead of the usual parts + unbelievably expensive labor.
You should see the mountain of clothes in our current abode. It’s taller than me. It’s TAAAAALL. I only seem to care when the stinky ratio outweighs my apathy.
Which would be about……NOW.
Well, if you won’t be coming up with the answer to the question of how long laundry can sit before becoming a bio-hazard, I might be able to step up. Because it’s getting scary, the piles of laundry that I CANNOT make a dent in because I have a cracked-up elf attached to me and an MIA (work) husband.
I’ll let you know. Unless it rises up and kills me. In which case, well.
