I think I'm on some kind of unofficial house cleaning strike (although it's getting more official with each passing day). Every day I look at my rugs and think "Yeah, I need to vaccuum those. I'll do that later." Later I think "I'm definitely going to vaccuum tomorrow." This cycle has been going on longer than I care to disclose. There's an empty

I do the exact same thing constantly. In fact, I'm way overdue to take out the recycling. I'd better do it today or it probably won't get done until Tuesday.

So I'm not the only one. Good :)

I did actually clean my kitchen last night - floor and everything. So I guess the strike is over even though my heart still isn't in it. And those rugs in need of vacuuming... still staring back at me ;)

Oh man, paper recycling we tend to neglect badly. The pile gets huge. They only pick up once every 2 weeks though, so whenever we miss it, it's pretty significant.

I don't vacuum very often. It's the most neglected aspect of my apartment's cleaning. Every once in a while I think that I should vacuum some of the dust collecting at the edges of the room and then promptly forget about it. For a guy who's so fastidious about personal hygiene, I can be a real slob sometimes when it comes to my home.

But I did manage to take the recycling out today, which is good. Pretty much all food and drink related: bottles, cans, cereal boxes, milk cartons, etc. For once most of it can't be blamed on gaming night, since I had just been forgetting to take it out when I had a day off, and didn't feel like dealing with it any day I worked.

What is it about vacuuming? I would rather clean the bathroom than vacuum.

Damn. Paper recycling night. I think I'm gonna need a BIG box.

Well, in my case it's at least partially because the carpet head on my vacuum broke a belt many years back and I've never gotten it fixed. So I'd have to vacuum the carpet with the hose's narrow little end. Also, the carpet's pretty easy to ignore, whereas a dirty bathroom will eventually start to irk me and I'll go on a cleaning spree.

I'm not sure which is worse - me with a perfectly good vacuum being too lazy to use it or you having a broken vacuum for YEARS.

You know my cleaning sprees usually start with the bathroom too. Maybe thats my problem - the bathroom isn't screaming loudly enough at me yet.

BTW - Do you know how hard it is to find a pic of Aeryn Sun with a gun looking badass? I'm going to just have to make a couple screencaps myself because I've been wanting an Aeryn w/gun icon too.

I know, I know. :-P But the maintenance agreement expired long, long ago and I just never cared enough to get it fixed.

Type "aeryn sun" into a Google image search and click the first result? ;-)

I have the poster of that shot (with John with dual pulse pistols in the foreground), although it's not up on the wall right now.

No no no. That won't make for a good icon (too tall - you won't get a good view of the gun). Believe me, I've searched. I'm just going to make some screen caps myself. The only reason I didn't already is because the ep files are on my husband's laptop and I've been too lazy to transfer them.

I will trust your mad icon-making skillz on this matter. Besides, I'm curious which awesome shot from the series you'll pick.
