in which i admit my failure at numerous adult activities

Our house is kinda funky, y'all.

This is because, quite frankly, I kind of suck at picking up after myself. Also we have the bad cats who make a mess and well ... we live here. It always seems kind of odd when people's houses look like they are fresh off a Better Homes and Gardens photo shoot. Where do they live ?

Today going for not quite Better Homes and Gardens, but maybe just below it. Or at least above flop house squalor which is maybe where starting. And you can tell how serious I am by the bandanna tied over my hair. And by the fact that am sitting here typing this instead of getting started.

Beyond the general scouring and straightening needed we have a leaky toilet that probably needs a new seal or some other plumbing type thing that intimidates me enough to just shut the door and use the other bathroom.

The dryer is on the fritz. Maybe. There might just be some glob of something caught in the vent somewhere. There is a test batch of towels in right now with the hose vented into the garage to find out if this is the case or if the dryer is really broken. This was my brilliant idea of yesterday. What to do if there is something caught in there will have to be someone else's brilliant idea because that shit vents up to the roof and I don't know how the hell to clean it out.

There is a newly appeared crack over the back door and maybe the door frame is sagging now. This could be normal settling. Or it could be the foundation cracking and half of the house getting ready to fall into a sink hole. Only time will tell.

The joys of home ownership, eh ?

Oh ! Speaking of ... think I need to have someone do my taxes this year ? I don't know about like home owner mortgage tax thingeys. Maybe I can ask my dad ? Or just drop my stuff at H & R Block ? How much does it cost to have someone do your taxes for you ?

Realize what a spoiled brat I am at times when I think " How much is it for someone to do my taxes ?" and then immediately following " Would it mean I'll have to miss a manicure ?" Oh the sacrifices.

Anyway.

Quit yammering away now, turn on some obnoxious music and scare the shit out of the cats with the vacuum.
