I’ve been taken over by aliens
it's so pretty and sleek.....
I am giddy–GIDDY–at the arrival yesterday of my Swiffer Vacuum.
Clearly, this means that I’ve been taken over by aliens and y’all should all search for pods in the basement (except that I live in Texas and we don’t have a basement).
Maybe I’m growing up. Maybe I’m turning into my mother. Maybe plowing through the crumbs left by two kids (and a husband) on the floor around the breakfast bar has finally made me snap. Whatever it is, I am giddily, scarily, gloriously happy to have this little contraption. (Our regular vacuum cleaner is amazing…but bulky. A pain to get out for little jobs. A motorless Bissel just doesn’t get the job done. A broom and a dustpan is a no-thank-you-very-much-ick situation.)
It arrived yesterday evening. I unpackaged it, looking lovingly at the sleek lines, the noble arch of the handle. This is a device that can get the job done.
Alas, it had to be charged up. I checked on it twice in the night, and the little light was still red.
Sigh.
Anticipation sucks.
But this morning, when the light was still red (12-18 hours of initial charging? seriously, Swiffer folks, we bought this thing b/c we NEED it. Like, now!). Call me a wild woman, but I used it anyway. That’s me, a total anarchist. Bwahahahahahaha.
And it worked.
Like a charm.
My kitchen floor is crumb free.
Bliss.
Even if I do feel like a walking commercial.
To add to that theme: since this Swiffer Vac will save you time, clearly you need something to read in all that spare time you have. Check out my re-release of THE CAT’S FANCY. This was my very first single title, and it holds a special place in my heart. Read all about it on my website!
