I do the dishes from the night before every morning before I go to work so we start the day with a clean sink. That way I can soak anything which needs it overnight. Also, it doesn't cut into my valuable slounging around watching the TV time. The DH makes the bed every day, which is fair, as he sleeps an extra hour, the big slacker.
Fred: It's the pictures in my mind that are getting me. It's like being stuck in a really bad movie with those Clockwork Orange clampy things on my eyeballs. Wesley: Why imagine? Reality's disturbing enough.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I also have not figured out how not to get totally wet from my neck to crotch while washing dishes.
I don't get *totally* wet, but I generally get my shirt pretty wet. I had to stop putting on my nightshirt before I washed the dishes, because I would just have to change into a new DRY nightshirt when I was done.
Here's a sexy concept I'm just going to toss out: apron. Eh?

Art Crawl!!!
Ha! I was going to make the same suggestion.

A waterproof apron?

I get my sleeves wet, even if I roll them up.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Eh, water on my shirt doesn't fuss me too terribly.

I think I would actually need some sort of waterproof gown-- because my sleeves get wet AND I get soaked. Maybe a surgical gown?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I vote splashguards for the sink. Not great for short people, but sacrifices have to be made somewhere.
My devices are not working for me today. The headset *and* the built in speakers are no longer working on my soft phone, and something's up that means I can't get IO9 to load properly unless I start up an incognito window. Rest of the gawker network loads fine.
I have the bad aura this morning. They can feel my pain.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
It is a sad day for my city-- Eastman Kodak is filing for bankruptcy.
Damn.
Having cats who eat wet food is my motivation to do the dishes daily. It is nice when there are only a few things. Cleaning the bathroom and vacuuming are my onerous tasks. I wish I could work out an exchange with some of you who hate putting away laundry.

I miss the Instamatic, so hard.
Also, fuck the Instagram.
