Queen of Excuses


House work might be dangerous!
I decided to clean the whole appartment yesterday, so that it wouldn't be a lot of stress doing it right before I move.
Today I feel beat. Totally. Really tired and can barely keep my eyes open. Now; this could have several reasons; some possible ones being Saturday night party, a too optimistic effort at SATS, or just the simple fact that today is Monday. But I choose to blame it on the cleaning. I think that everything that could possibly be blamed on house work, should be.
In this case, I more spesifically blame it on the detergent, Salmiakk. I wanted to get the shower completely clean, and was really proud when I discovered a mix of cleaning detergants that actually worked (yes, I do admit that it is quite scary that I could feel so happy about a break through in the department of house cleaning. It will never happen again!), so I took my bucket of water and huge amounts of salmiakk into the shower, and stayed in that 1m x 1m space cleaning the walls and floor for 10 minutes. What I didn't think about is that Salmiakk is quite strong, and after the 10 minutes I felt really weird and dizzy...
So, I think that's why I forgot all my transcribing stuff at home this morning and have now spent 4 hours in the library doing - let's see - nothing!! So be aware of housework :)

He-he...Vi har jo gode erfaringer med skuring av tregulv på alle fire i Blussuvollsbakken. Mulig det var mer slavearbeid enn obligatorisk flyttevask. Aldri før har de gulvene og den trappa vært så fine. Egentlig burde vi fått betalt av Ragna for å gjøre det. :)

ja, helt enig.. det var virkelig slavearbeid; utnytting av stakkars hybelboere og ufint mot hybelkaniner. nesten så vi burde tatt et lite søksmål nå i ettertid. jeg kan komme med en hjertesjærende erklæring om at det har gjort meg allergisk mot alt husarbeid. for alltid. :)
