FRIDAY FIVE September 5 / Target

Friday, Sept. 05, 2003 - 5:28 a.m.

This week's Friday Five: (Questions are boldface, my answers appear beneath.)

What housekeeping chore(s) do you hate doing the most?

A: Anything having to do with the removal of dust from the bathroom. For some reason it really sticks in there. Ewww.

Are there any that you like or don't mind doing?

A: I absolutely love ironing a cotton shirt. That activity has a beginning, a middle, and an end, and the result is that whoever I ironed the shirt for is almost always very grateful. I also love making the bed with fresh clean sheets, and I like folding laundry, and I really really love to cook.

Do you have a routine throughout the week or just clean as it's needed?

A: A routine? Hah. I clean as needed, which even then is never often enough.

Do you have any odd cleaning/housekeeping quirks or rules?

A: Probably. I can't think of them at the moment, but John would know better than I would and will probably leave a comment if he thinks of any.

What was the last thing you cleaned?

A: The glass water pitcher on the kitchen counter, because I scooted the uncovered butter dish over to it accidentally and it left a smear of margarine on the glass. If you want to have absolutely no fun at all, try and clean margarine off of glass sometime. It takes about twelve years.

Okay. Now, if you wanna play Friday Five, go here.

Yesterday I had a small victory at Target; I found the perfect windbreaker jacket in the men's department; it's an XL, it's navy, it's got two pockets -- and it was on sale for ten dollars. Nothing left to get now but a disposable camera, and I'm set. Yay!
