Cleaning

It was thundering and my sweetie and I stayed up until 6 again so I didn't bother getting out of bed until around 4. Look... I couldn't go online, I couldn't vacuum, so what else was there to do?
So when I finally heaved myself out of bed and took a shower, I made up for my lack of awakeness.
I cleaned.
First I vacuumed the living room.
Then I dusted on top of the tv.
Then I dusted the mantle.
Then I cleaned the kitchen windows.
Then I washed the counter-top.
Then I washed/sprayed the kitchen table.
Then I used the clorox ready-mop to mop the linoleum.
Then I cleaned the glass on the china cabinet.
Then I cleaned some bird-related thing. And vacuumed again because I got the carpet dirty.
I cleaned the stovetop and the microwave.
And the phone.
And my cell phone.
Then my record was over.
So I cleaned it.
And then I cleaned the record player.
I can't remember when, but I do remember washing the crumb tray in the toaster. Who would have guessed- the crumb tray can be recycled.
I did more, but I'm far too tired to list it all.
I'm all sweaty and exhausted and I have a headache from cleaning supplies. BUT I HAD SO MUCH FUN IT WAS SCARY. I did it all whilst smiling and dancing like that lady on the Swiffer commercial.
I TURNED STEPFORD, AHHHHHHHHHHHHH.

Yes. I cleaned pretty quickly. Hee.

once again the image of band instruments running (don't ask about the details) down a road just passed through my mind

This comment is totally random and has nothing to do with this post.
So I'm hanging around at your site looking through your eljay icons.
Noticed one and started cracking up.
"Sorry, I can't date you. You have too many carbs."
Ooer. brilliance + easily amused.
