Chores

Somehow, I picture you as Patrick Bateman... not physically, but more in the wall street serial killer sort of way.

haha. I never have to shine shoes! I always laugh at my father when he does them. It looks the most dull job ever. He's amazing at it, after decades in the army!

Ironing-boring as fuck. Don't trust me with ironing.
Putting stuff in the dishwasher-okay, it doesn't sound like much of a chore, but hey.
Unloading the dishwasher-I know you all know what I mean.
Changing the bedcovers- I'm incredibly lazy.
re-wiring my guitar-I hate doing this.(More laze)
emptying the 'trash'

I only iron when I need to, same with doing laundry. When I clean my room it usually takes about 3 or four rubbish bags, so maybe I should do that more often...
Guess I get off pretty easy then

haha same as me about the rubbishbags. I always have a lot of newspaper cuttings all over the floor etc (Now I sound like a serial killer!) and waste paper takes up a lot of room.

That's all I can think after hearinbg Wall Street and Flip Mattress(it's new).

I can see him with a length of PVC piping and some starved rats right now.

"Do NOT get blood on the mattress BITCH!!"

love shining shoes. not. but, i have to be good at it. image is everything on the street. sadly. that's what my novel is all about, sort of.

i have to watch this american psycho. perhaps tonight.

no one has flipped a mattress before!?! jesus, that's how they'll last for more than a decade.

Are you really supposed to flip new mattresses? I just spent a shitload of money on the cheapest one I could find and I don't want to have to buy a new one until sometime in the year 3000.

oh, yeah, dude. in the first month of owning a new mattress, you shuold flip it once. thereafter, evry six months'll do it.

Why do I feel like we both just became Carol Brady? The haircut that looks like a ski cap and all...
Thanks.

Feeding the rabbit--good, because he is very appreciative of it.
Cleaning my room--full-on ugliness
Cleaning out my car--see 'room.'
Unloading the dishes from the dishwasher--okay
Laundry--okay

i eat rabbits!

My rabbit will kill you. He has magical powers. His name means "moonlight" in Japanese.

Tsukikage?

Gekko. What does tsukikage mean?

Moonlight.

Different dialect?

Are you sure tsukikage doesn't mean 'moon'? My Japanese is so poor but that sounds kind of familiar.

fried in butter, garlic, shallots, white wine a little mustard and braised for several hours. magical powers or not, your bunny's gonna taste great with my riesling.

My bad- apparently tsuki means moon and kage means shadow.

So kind of the opposite of moonlight. Sorry.

I hate you. You sound like my dad.

Wtf is a moon shadow? Why would a language ever need a word for moon shadow?

Your dad teaches Japanese and uses phrases like "my bad"?

It's Japan.

Remember HOT SPACE STATION?

Moon shadow is a cool concept though.

No, the eating the rabbit thing sounds like my dad.

My dad taught shop class. Now he drives a truck.

king of the hill, eh?

anyone have a shrink wrapping system they can recommend? i need to put away my woolen sweaters. why doesn't martha return my pages.

Cause she's an irratic psycho. You don't want her to have your number in her possesssion, man.

And it's not king of the hill. He has a teaching certificate and like eighty bazillion degrees, but for some reason he likes truck-driving. Go figure.

you said shop teacher. i though of mr. hill. my friend tim writes for that show. i ost my teaching certificate because i punched an unruly student in the face after he produced a knife in my internet sensitivity class at the y.

That has just GOT to be a joke.

but you are nonetheless uncertain of its veracity, eh?

Internet people are by nature A) untrustworthy full of remarkable stories and I'm never sure when and where the two meet

i'll tell. this once. a drinking buddy of mine was assaulted by one of his students. the school did nothing. the student laughs at his teacher and threatens to harm him. my drinking buddy resigns and is now suing the board of ed. this is true.

still, i used to be a substitute teacher at my high school while i was in college. the easiest 70 bucks a day i ever made.

*hopes it was a joke*

i am damaging my own mild mannered reputation. *becomes enraged, promulgating a startling metamorphosis and grown into a green hulk*

what classes did you take over?

i monitored spanish 7 and 8; biology 10; english 9 and 12; and history 11.

did they throw stuff at you and put notes on your back?

one kid in a spanish class thought it would be funny to make paper airplanes and sail them around the classroom. i asked him to stand up and come to the front of the class. i told him to tell us all why paper airplanes fly and if his answer was satisfying he could throw them all day long to his hearts content. if he didn't wantto explain or if his answer was insufficient i told him he would go to the dean of discipline, mr.v. he opted to go directly to mr. v. i didn't have much trouble after that episode.

He couldn't tell you why they fly?

I mean even in basic terms?

I'm not a physicist, or for that matter allowed to leave the house without my helmet, and I think I could at least BS my way through that.

i was hoping he could. he choked. i guess it was the attention and the fact that he had to stand up in front of his classmates. ha ha

And frammy I believe rabbits are a red meat. Riesling is a white.

of course it's a white. what do you take me for, a witless rube?

do not for one single minute deign to tell me what wine goes with what food. riesling is a traditional accompaniement to rabbit. rabbit is white meat, too, by the way, or do you consider pork a red meat, you aussie dunderhead.

just a heads up, i can only have red wine with red meat purist, i keep the bible on my night table, larousse's gastronomique. it's all there. white wine with rabbit, white wine with cheese. think outside the bun.

d-deh-dunderhead? I was only trying to help! *starts sobbing*
Rabbit is a white meat? Whoah. ok.
And if I was cooking, which I can't so I won't, I'd go for a roasting in a sweet sauce, with some boiled carrots (cause who doesn't love a good irony) and a dessert wine. Then again I'm more likely to just make a dinner of subway cookies and vodka+redbulls.

apolgies, loki. i am a sensitive reactionary in general, but when it comes to food i am mercenary in my reactions. i mistakenly thought you were challenging my metier. no worries. i'll take my meds.

additionally, if i am ignorant of a preparation, a food product or whatnot i'll admit it. i am a gastronome. that is my life's calling. it's just a shame i can't make any $$$ of of these god-given talents.

still, you're not far off. when i lived in germany my host family prepared rabbit in a riesling sauce with shallots, champignons and carrots as my going away meal. wow! the thought of how good that was makes me drool.

thats okay frammylad... I'm rarely in a serious mood when writing such posts. See everyone? Theres no problem that can't be settled down over an ovenfull of jane's bunny rabbit and a bottle of whatever wine. I'd hug you fram, but you're a contraceptive device with spiky teeth

very amusing. very droll. carry on, lad.

the chore that sucks to me the most is unloading the dishwasher. i *HATE* touching dishes when they come out of the dishwasher. this doesn't bother me when, say, they've been washed in the sink...i think its something about the cascade detergent on them or something. like you know that dawn commercial where they rub their thumb against a glas to show how clean it got? i have to leave the room. to me that sound, and that feeling, is like fingernails on a chalkboard. euughhh.

i know, i'm weird.

I take care of the dogs. Feeding them, picking-up after them, bathing them, walking them etc.

And frame why do you even do some of that stuff? Packing winter clothes? Shrink wrapping sweaters? I keep all my clothes together folded, undfolded, piled yet still somehow looking neat.

dude, do you use Space Bags? Those things are the shit.
