The agenda for today

[lance_sibley]

I had planned a busy day:

1. Buy groceries.


2. Clean kitchen.


3. Clean bathroom.


4. Clean living room.


5. Do laundry.


6. Check with superintendent about getting a storage locker downstairs, and if one was available, move all the crap that's in my dining room down there.


7. Clean dining room.

Actually accomplished:

1. Went to Starbucks.


2. Took my coffee to Indigo, where I browsed through this month's Advocate. (What did they do to it? Ugh.)


3. Bought groceries.


4. Read half of front section of today's Globe and Mail. (Enjoyed sense of schadenfreude at Stephen Harper giving in and initiating a probe into the Mulroney/Schreiber affair.)


5. Started to clean kitchen.


6. Went back out to replenish cleaning supplies. Picked up sponges, Vim Oxy-Gel and rubber gloves to replace the ones that had disintegrated. (Are sponges an endangered species? All I could find in three stores were the little itty-bitty ones you use for washing dishes.)


7. Cleaned kitchen. (That Vim Oxy-Gel is amazing stuff.)


8. Didn't notice it was 6pm, and missed Blood Ties. :(

Now, with all that said... my kitchen is nearly spotless. Sure, it could use another going-over with the mop to pick up a little bit of gunk that just got pushed around instead of picked up, but I don't think it's been this clean since I moved in here ten years ago. (Wow, I just realized, this month is my ten-year anniversary in this apartment...)

Problem is, spending an hour on my hands and knees scrubbing the kitchen floor with a stiff brush has left me with no energy for anything else on my list. The second problem is, with my kitchen floor still damp, I can't make dinner yet, and I'm starving... maybe I should order in Chinese. I wonder if The Goof delivers to this neighbourhood.

Oh, and seen via ozreison:

Is It Christmas?

You could probably get paid a lot of money to do that if you'd switch professions....
