Day 19

I am failing in my housewifely duties. Magnificently.

This is my new friend, the Dust Bunny, that was just staring at me from across the room. Is it wrong that I'm starting to identify with the balls of hair and dust that are accumulating around me? Maybe it's a form of Stockhold Syndrome.

I find it interesting that I would rather photograph the mess than actually sweep it up. It probably reveals some sordid element of my personality that I would prefer to leave unexamined. Or maybe I'm just creating art? Yeah, that's it. My messy house as art.

Hee, hee! I think that's great--we always show good..but this is real!

I am forever pretending not to see the cat hair tumbleweed lazily blowing across my hardwood floors.

I too am impressed that you took the time to photograph it instead of picking it up!

Woo Hoo!

Did you know that dust includes dinosaur remains and that it circulates in perpetuity? All the little tidbits I glean from kids' books!
