Least Favorite Chores

A while back Ryan told us that Sunday was “Catch Up on Chore Day” around his house and it generally happens that way around my house, too. In my house even!

I chose to take care of some chores this morning and found I kept procrastinating on one of them. I’d easily find other tiny tasks to do, or a website I needed to check out, or something else. That chore? Folding and putting away laundry.

Man, I hate it. I don’t know why. I don’t mind doing the actual washing and drying, and getting the clothing in and out of the machines, but one of the most important parts just bugs me. I can’t wait until we invent a machine that’ll do this for me.

I’m also not a fan of cleaning up dog poop, but to be honest with you I think I prefer it to putting away clothes.

I absolutely hate doing the fans, the duster I have sucks and it doesn’t stick to the dust. Instead it sweeps it onto the floor and into my eyes and after I’m done, I have to vaccuum.

I think have a new least favorite chore: washing out the trash can.

What is this then?

The Daily Ping is the web's finest compendium of toilet information and Oreo™® research. Too much? Okay, okay, it's a daily opinion column written by two friends. Did we mention we've been doing this for over ten years? Tell me more!
