Baksteen 84 #1 March 24, 2008 So I'm spring cleaning. And I don't even have a SO to force me to, nor am I expecting a visit from my mother or receiving a young lady in the near future. How sad is that? Then again, the weather is, er, "significantly suboptimal" in terms of jumping conditions, and both flatmates are conveniently away to visit their parents. So I figured, what the hell... Let's see if single men are really incapable of taking care of themselves. Well, halfway through it seems I'm doing fine. No injuries yet, apart from a few minor cuts and abrasions."That formation-stuff in freefall is just fun and games but with an open parachute it's starting to sound like, you know, an extreme sport." ~mom Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Baksteen 84 #3 March 24, 2008 Why? I'd rather not have my mother come over to do my cleaning/laundry/cooking for me, unlike some people, apparently.. Nor do I feel an overwhelming urge to bribe my flatmates with sex, seeing as how one of them is a guy, and the other a seventeen yr old student. As to cleaning ladies, well, I once saw one finishing with cleaning a toilet and proceeding to work on the kitchenette with the same cloth... In partial amends for the cleaning, however: tonight is chinese takeaway-day.

Baksteen 84 #7 March 24, 2008 A guy having to clean the entire house while the missus holds the video camera? @Granny: I think you'd find hiring me to be somewhat expensive, as a return plane ticket must be included in the cleaner's fee, which is at least twice minimum wage.
