You take it correctly.


Guess I'll continue to be imaginary.

Though everybody has those chores they can't stand. For me, washing dishes and vacuuming are the two chores I hate more than any other.

Nadia Bolz-Weber is one of the main people who have shaped where my faith and worldview are today. She's a wonderful person and I wish more people were like her. Here's a very small taste, if you want.

I actually like washing dishes.

While I have a machine that washes the dishes for me. It was not a planned acquirement, I purchased the dishwasher and a few other things from the previous tenants when I moved to my current address.

One day I may own a dishwasher, but that day is far in the future.

Luckily for me, mrs mermania hates food marketing and laundry more, and I dont mind those chores as much as dish washing and vacuuming. So in this house it works out.

I love shopping and am good with laundry, so what your saying is I just gotta find a man who doesn't mind dish washing and vacuuming and marry him?

Marriage is a strong word, but pretty much yes. a division of chores makes it easier to have a happy home.

Well, you like washing dishes, so I imagine there's some satisfaction of some kind there.

I also enjoy drinking liquor, but I don't normally drive hundreds of kilometres to get drunk.

Direct the kids to do the chores. the sole point to having them is to have someone to take out the garbage and clean the cat litter.

Just point me southward after I'm down cleaning and top off my drink. I can walk home, it's only about 700 kilometres.
