Things That Rightfully or Not Bug Me


I never thought about sniffing the closet. So much to do and never enough time to do the important things. Now something else to put on the bucket list.

I don't know... The smell of soap surely trumps the collective body odor of the Blue Cross IT workers from India who ride the 805 SMART bus with me every afternoon. The stench is enough to gag a maggot.

Maybe you're right, but I'd have to go to Costco for the value pack.

Thanks for reminding me to go light my scented burner :)

Maybe they're pulling the to-be-laundered clothes from the hamper? Or maybe the movie is set in the Depression and they did put stinky clothes back on hangers. I always hate that scene because it's so cliched.
When my sister and her family moved houses, the dog slept on the ground floor and they all slept on higher floors. For the first few weeks he insisted on sleeping in the dirty clothes hamper, because it had their scents and it was the only familiar thing in the house to him.

So they slept upstairs, but had the hamper downstairs? A lot of naked stair-running going on.
Why naked stair running? You have an overactive imagination. Laundry is on the ground floor. Bedrooms are on upper floors. Bedrooms contain closets full of clothes.
I put "stinky" clothes back in the closet. Unless I rolled around in mud, or sprayed myself with mustard, or perspired heavily, my clothes do not need laundering between wearings.

When I remove my clothes, I drop them in the hamper in my room, then put on something else. At your sister's house I would be stripping things off near the hamper, then climbing the stairs for clean clothes. Any other method involves making an extra trip up or down the stairs.
1. In bedroom, remove dirty clothes. Drop in hamper or laundry basket. Or leave on floor for adult to pick up...
2. Adult moves around upper floors, gathering dirty clothes. Takes laundry basket down to laundry room.

You lived at my mom's house? Sis, is that you??



I like to text "niiiiiiiiiice" and stretch it out.
Text talk should but me but it doesn't. I think language is fluid and spellings impermanent. What bugs me is when people don't use punctuation.

bug me. Not but me.
Daw, Kevco. You know I'm joshing. I love your toneless posts. It's like my little robot friend is posting.

"niiiiice" doesn't bother me because you're putting a tone into the words, something like that. But no one actually says "Greatttttttttttttt" or "Awesomeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee" in real life, so why type it for no purpose? And if they do, then I really need to get out more because I must be living under a rock.
I think people may actually say "Greeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat" or "Aweeeeeeeeeeeeesome" but the way they/you wrote it above is writhe-worthy because it is not phonetically possible to hold the consonant "t" or the end vowel "e" for that many beats.

Exactly. But somehow your use of the second person here made me feel a little bit sad.

That's when I forego the texting and pick up the phone.
