Just Keepin' The Streak Alive


There will come a day when I just say to hell with it and miss a post. It probably should be today. I really have nothing to talk about, and I'm in the middle of acting like Cinderella here at the house.

Like an idiot, I told "Wife" that I would wash the floors today. The entire first floor of the house is hard wood floor, and then there are the two bathrooms upstairs. That's a lot of floor. What was I thinking? Like any other household task, I put it off as long as I could. I did some work this morning,then had a little breakfast. Finally I was ready to get started, but I wasn't sure what I could use to wash the wood floors. This necessitated a trip to Home Depot, and more time wasted finding the right cleaner. OK, now I'm ready. Oh wait, is that the phone? It was a friend of mine who I hadn't seen in a long time. She wanted to know if I was available for lunch. Sure I am. I explained my floor task and after laughing at me, it was decided that we'd grab some food and bring it to the house. That way, we'd eat fast and I'd be back at work. Three hours later I remembered that I hadn't done this, and here I am.
Perfect.

I better get moving. If "Wife" comes home to dirty floors, I'm in trouble. She may lock me in a closet or administer some corporal punishment. Either way, I won't be able to take advantage of "Daughter's absence for some late night lovin'. To quote my favorite dwarf Grumpy, "hi ho, hi ho, it's off to work I go." Later...Brian
