QOTD

"Life’s Too Short To Clean Your Own Home"
- I saw this slogan on a van parked at Portillos... I think it's these guys: The Cleaning Authority
There's a change for ya. Everybody used to clean their own houses.

The QOTD kind of creeps me out, but maybe I'm just old and out of touch.
Growing up, I didn't know a soul who had a house cleaner or a lawn guy or any of that stuff. Maybe it's because I have a house cleaner and a lawn guy now, even though I don't want one. Stupid castle. Maybe it's Naperville. Nah. Maybe it feels like entitlement... and it's not sustainable. Maybe it's OK. I don't know.

Shit, people didn't work out or have multiple cars or organize every minute of their kids' lives... a lot has changed, I guess. Shit (again), I'm older than the shopping mall, so why shouldn't I be a little confused (dehydrated and disoriented). I relish trying to fathom some young person wanting to watch a video on their cellphone. Then, I do the math and realize I'm closer in age to fucking Moz than I am someone who's 21.

That's the rub though... I'm right on it. It's not that I don't understand all this stuff and technology and change. It's that I don't want it... presumably because I didn't have it and I am used to not having it. It's generational and it makes sense to me because it's like the rinse and repeat of life.

Stay tuned for my next post: Bill's toenail falls off. Exciting!
blech... yow, bill
