Edit: – Everything's done! I need to give the floor another mop tomorrow before I wax it over the weekend, anyone fancy a waxing party, Fiona?

I also decalcified the milk-crates in the master bedroom and cleaned all the surfaces upstairs and down whilst I was at it.

Now I'm off for a well-deserved beer with a friend.

Yes, it's another of my \m/ cleaning posts, and the last post for today, I promise.

This afternoon I was MSNing with a friend about how much we love cleaning, and she mentioned that even though she likes it, it'd be nice to get some help now and then and be thanked for it.

Personally, I don't agree. It would be nice to be offered help so I could politely decline, though.

I like to do it just for the lovely feeling when it's all done, and I much prefer doing it on my own because there's less chance of people interfering, like with cooking, there's very few people I've met in the past year I can cook with without wanting to run away screaming or sticking around to murder them with a fistful of spatulas, a clove of garlic and a jar of crazy paving!

That's a bit harsh, I know..

Anyway, all the pots are washed, dried and put away (I hate putting away, as you know), the stove is clean, the floor's been mopped three times, including under all the tables/chairs/sofas, every edge and corner has been hoovered, twice, and if you were dead tall you could eat your dinner off the ceiling.

I even scraped off the solitary piece of red onion and the apple sticker that's been welded to the tiles of the kitchen floor for the past three months or so.

It's nice tiring yourself out doing something that makes you happy. Like masturbating I suppose.

What is annoying though, is when someone tramps across your previously spotless floor from upstairs with their effing shoes on!!!!1!!

Sigh.. time to mop the stairs, the stuff that's up the stairs (the second floor) and dust my computer.

When I get home tomorrow (providing I don't forget) it's the inside of the stove and fridge, then the bathroom. Remind me please!

Below is part of an email conversation between myself and a potential customer this morning..

Awwww, it turned out he wanted to cam with me! Very cute but rather inappropriate.

Mmmm, early nights are good for the brain! So is freshly made apple pie, thanks Amanda (and friend).

It was lovely to be back home though, fixing lamps with LampHead BulbFace, and laughing.

Speaking of LampHead, this morning I used the remainder of her breakfast cereal milk in my coffee, on the way to the bus stop I couldn't help singing..
