// AI-COM MNRVA : activate MIDNIGHT EXIGENT(aurora knives)

@Totalanimefan: Thankfully my boyfriend will usually put away the clothes after I fold them, but folding is pretty much off the table for him. xD I wouldn't mind putting his clothes away if he didn't seem hell-bent on destroying his dresser every time he gets ready... oTL

@koneko: Precisely! Plus towels are so big and bulky that four of them can make up an entire load. Which is annoying when it looks like you have so much more laundry than you really do. >:C



I did finally tackle the massive clean laundry pile, washed all of our clothes save for whites, and dusted the
living room; gotta make some breakfast now though~

I think it's because it's a new and exciting part of something that's otherwise very mundane. You get to use something new, so it feels like a slightly different activity, even if you're just balancing your checkbook. I work in a restaurant so pens and paper are a staple, and the fancier kinds definitely make you feel like you're more prepared; kinda like shoes that light up lol. I just got a new server book a couple weeks ago with a galaxy pattern on it and you can bet I was excited to use it on my next shift. xD

I also feel the same way with cleaning supplies. Actually anything around the home. New towels, bathroom organiser, frying pan, storage bins? FIELD DAY.

@koneko: And then it gets to the point where you're like "no, seriously, PLEASE let us help you, we have no dishes left" lol

I started some laundry and am working myself up to folding the big pile that's been floating between the dryer and the chair for a week. |D Everything else will feel like a cakewalk once I get that monster out of the way c':

@Aisukohi: Yo I feel that though... I'm always on everyone about drinking water, and will flip out if the dogs have less than 1/4 a bucket of water, but am constantly pumping myself full of diuretics. |D And I'm in the desert. xD

Have you adopted any succulents? I too tend to...neglect the plants I get to the point of death (RIP :c) but I've had the same succulent for about a year now and it's still going strong! They don't need much water and are honestly pretty hard to kill. I think this one has been on the brink a couple times but always comes back with vigor!

@koneko: Right?? It's so much faster, easier, and more fun with and extra set of hands! And you never know which one of your friends might have a great eye for interior design lol. Plus for some reason it feels like less of a chore when you're helping someone else, but I have that weird mom-friend trait too so idk. xD

@Pospeb: Oooof working out in the heat is something I just cannot do. Huge respect for folks who can do it, and do it by choice to less! Well done! You definitely deserve to kick back and enjoy the fruits of that labour!

@Totalanimefan: Yasss! I need to do some laundry tomorrow too; work uniform and sheets. And do all the dusting in one swoop... OH god and that big pile in the dryer that needs folding--

why do I do this to myself lol

@Kairu: I sent him a message so we shall see! Either way I'm planning on sharing some code snippets for everyone to use in profiles, as well as some fixes for the layouts and themes I did in the past, with no strings attached. c:

@Totalanimefan: It do be like that. Thankfully I kept up pretty well before I went on self-imposed exile lol and don't have too much catching up to do, aside from some event items just for collections' sake.

@blue: Oh so relatable. I have clothing that's never been worn, or that's from high school, that I've been trying to get rid of. And the number of times I've promised to do just that is laughable; but like your situation, a lot of it is formal/business casual or for special occasions and I think "well, what if?" and hold on to it. :[

Imho room-by-room can be best in most situations. Making rounds can be exhausting and take a lot of time; and there are tools one can use to keep from becoming too hyper-focused on one thing. Plus, even if you decide that's enough or run out of time, you have somewhere tidy to retreat to. xD

@Totalanimefan: I got most of the vacuuming done; just have one area rug to do, but my Golden is back to sleep (different spot, same rug) so I guess that's good enough for me today lol. Might get done later but I have to work in a few hours so probably not. xD

@koneko: Ayyy thank you! I was tempted to give up about halfway but then talked myself out of it. I do think I'll leave the dusting for tomorrow though lol

We can have a cleaning party! Put on some tunes, order some pizza, and jam out until 3AM! |D

@The Monster: All set!

I'm not one to talk--I drink too much caffeine and rarely sleep 7 solid hours a night--but definitely try resting if your body asks for it!

@Totalanimefan: Ayyy well done! I always have to knock out the dishes first thing, as it's the one task I'll really drag my feet on; but if I get it out of the way, everything else seems inconsequential.

I do still need to vacuum the rugs, but the dogs are lazing around all over them and I always feel guilty by giving them such a rude awakening... c': And I definitely should have started the laundry already buuut I have a massive pile of unfolded clothing and towels to contend with. QwQ

@Vozzy: You can do it! do it before it gets too bad oh god I shamefully crammed mine back into the dryer before work yesterday just to get it out of the way. xD For a while I was pretty good about keeping up with it, but some rough weeks at work messed up my rhythm, and getting it back has been hard. c':

I'm so tempted to just dive into projects as usual, BUUUTTT I've been neglecting the housework lately so I'm putting my own foot down. For myself. xD

If I can do some dusting, get all the trash / crumbs out of the bedroom, and clean the bathroom, I think I can allow myself to relax a little. c': And then it's back to the keyboard, cranking out some code!



  • Wash Dishes - done!
  • Kitchen Shelves - done!
  • Kitchen Floor - done!
  • Appliances - done!
  • Dust Living Room
  • Vacuum - 70%
  • Bedroom Shelves (trash) - done!
  • Bathroom Surfaces - done!
  • Bathroom Floor - done!


Ahhhh halfway there. I can do it.
