Yes, that was a HUGE pile of dishes. I have not seen such mold in 14 years. Not since the horrible flatmate of 1990 have I smelled such a smell.
Dear self: I promise not to let the dishes get that bad ever again. -Love, me.
P.S. Three hours of washing and washing could have been avoided by spending oh, say, fifteen minutes each day!! LEARN, self. You silly, silly chicken.

I've had plenty of drunken housemates in the past who were just as you describe -- no matter how bad I ever was, they were invariably worse, especially a certain annoying male one. Oh well.
Some day you will not have any more such housemates. That day WILL come.

I can be extremely lazy when depressed, but I also have a tendency to be so lazy I just don't cook, thus preventing washing up from accumulating.

Date: 2004-03-31 11:46 pm (UTC)1. Carole was gone for a week. When she came home everything was clean. Then she came home and boink-fest 2004 commenced. Our energies were not directed into housekeeping if you get my drift. ;)
2. The hen wasn't exactly on a pleasure cruise while she was gone. Visiting elderly parents in frail health is *very* stressful. If she needed to escape from the hard bits of life by futzing on the computer and vidding and pretending that we have a kitchen staff, she's allowed.
3. I'm coming to the end of my masters. I am totally freaking out. I have projects to finish and a nasty exam to look forward to in the next 14 days. The project for which I've been working for almost three years is drawing to a close and there is *heaps* of work to do, all of it time intensive. I am also supposed to be looking for a job, but let's not talk about that. :D
Don't think that your future is going to be littered with dirty pans and a lazy girlfriend. We usually are a lot tidier. :) :hides behind pile of laundry:

Date: 2004-03-31 11:00 pm (UTC)You are right now witnessing my fit of giggles and the tears that are falling from my eyes. I love you so much. The kitchen scared the hell out of me and your use of Buffy phrasing to express the enormity of the situation was priceless. I LOVE THIS WOMAN!!
