This Is Why I'll Never Be an Adult.

Except I'm not blond. But otherwise, this is my life, internets!

I am like this but instead of real adult tasks it is shit like "sweep up the chunks of concrete all over my floor" and "shower daily" and "eat food, but only when you're actually hungry or sense a mealtime approaching, not just because you're bored".

Why do you have chunks of concrete on the floor? Did an experiment go wrong?

The food one is also me. Sometimes I forget hunger. Like today, I haven't eaten yet because I ate yesterday, and I know there should probably be food every day. And now I'm hungry but I haven't yet learned to multitask in such a way that I can put the laundry in, make food, and then get the laundry out.

And then there are the days where I eat because there is food right there, regardless of whether I'm hungry or not. That was yesterday.

Well, you see, we were putting up curtains.

This necessitated drilling into the ceiling.

Normally when you drill into concrete it doesn't crack and then fall apart when you whack it with a screwdriver, but my ceiling is pretty fucked up. First it was raining drywall, and then the paint on the wall nearby started to crack and fall off, and then enough drywall had fallen off the ceiling that the concrete was exposed and Dad hit it (to see if it was really concrete I guess, or just because my dad likes breaking things) and pieces of it fell to the ground.

So that is why there are chunks of concrete on my floor! And a shitload of plaster dust.

Oh, in my last place, I don't think I even cleaned up from that. It was behind the radiator. So.

It's kind of all over my fucking floor to the point where I step in it on the way from bed to computer. XDDDDD

Most people would consider this an urgent cleaning task but the power of my apathy knows no bounds.

You can pretend that you're living in a post-apocalyptic zombie dystopia. At least, that's what I do.

belatedly, I realize that the proper answer to "Why do you have chunks of concrete on the floor?" is of course "I was building a particle accelerator 8D"

Clean all the things?

I will be joining you in all things cleaning just as soon as I am done databasing all the patents.

If I did laundry and vacuuming at the same time, I could clean all the things and also eat. I am going to try that. But the crossing guard keeps blowing a whistle outside and people are being yobs about Spain, so it is very distracting. Also the internet is shinier.

*dumps concrete and plaster dust onto the internet*

Now it is less shiny and you can go do things!

there is no flaw in this brilliant plan

Opposite problem. While I am washing dishes, why not sweep, and since I am sweeping, I should clean off Pride Rock (the coffee table to anyone who is not Win$ton) and if I am cleaning Pride Rock, I should haul some hoodies into the bedroom, and oh, look, I need to do some laundry, and the bathroom sink is no longer the color of the original porcelain, but the color of toothpaste residue, and ... aw shit, the dishwater is cold and nasty.

Except for the shininess of the internet; that is a constant for me, too.

This seems to also be all over FB today. Heh.

I cleaned all the things. Well, I am halfway through cleaning all the things and I think it's time for a telly break.

I was just sitting here deciding whether to cook a meal or open the Doritoes and dips, and couldn't cope with decisions so got on the internet instead.
It is me exactly too, except that I get very drunk and then spend the next day being sick all day to escape responsibilities, then start from square one again! Also, I have never had a job and am 34, so I don't think I will ever get very far in that sense...I do desperately need to get to the bank though...but hey, it's the weekend, so I can't, phew.

I thought the same thing when I read that. And then went and vacuumed the whole house because partner's parents were headed into town.

I agree with you about food. Why so often? So much trouble. If only I could get all my nutrients from tea.
