(house)Work Wednesday: Liking to Clean vs. Liking It Clean

I decided because I had the day off from work today and did nothing of substance that I would just continue that trend to the blog and skip something of actual substance this week and just go with something random. Enjoy.

So I was talking to Lisa after going on a movie double date to see Transporter 3 with her, N.E.B., and my Y.M. and we got on the subject of hand vacs. And Audis...because they were in the movie and we're in marketing so we can appreciate good product placement.

Lisa: Check out this statement in a review and tell me what seems odd: This is the best cordless hand held vac that I've ever had in 34 years of marriage. No cleaning before marriage?

Me: Maybe she didn't have one. I wouldn't have one except for Sweetie (Y.M.'s dog and the source of a ridiculous amount of hair.) I just bought it two weeks ago. I had planned on putting it on the registry (Bridal...somewhere off in the future...), but nooooo...stupid dog hair.

Lisa: You must not be as OCD as me

Me: I am, but I've been using the Dyson. (Yes the Y.M. likes to clean enough that he bought a Dyson to deal with the pet hair....yeah I know you're impressed.) Then Y.M.'s like "I woulda gotten you a dyson hand vac." Well damn.

Me (in a fit of ADHD): I want an Audi now

Lisa: I want a dyson hand vac

Me: Hmm. Well if i can afford an Audi or for that matter the dyson hand vac, someone else can clean my house. I don't like cleaning that much, I just like it clean.

Lisa: Hahahahahaha TRUEEE!

There is your "housewifey" conversation of the week brought to you by me and Lisa.

Liking TO clean is different than liking IT clean. Maybe there was some enlightenment in the afterall...

Be careful with a Dyson! My carpet guy said he has to replace Dyson people's carpet more often. Apparently they get things too clean.
