[Diary Notes]
Working with plastic gloves is a revelation, now I
scrub the black moss
growing in the shower with
bleach without fear
that my skin will blister & tear,
our little crocodile kid
bought gloves in size small
and for the first time
it was easy to wash dishes
with gloves on my
fingers, then she wanted us to
Start cracking nuts in
the garden with a hammer
on an anvil, ears
deafened by the clang of hammer
on iron and Nici
bravely forging on - the Lord and
Master of the Crocodile
Castle came out with a
warning: You MUST tidy
up afterwards - and my
latent OCD was awakened
by his complaint - to
Never start making a
mess, as soon as someone
starts preparing food
in the kitchen I run in & start
washing the dishes as
if I were an automaton just
programmed for cleaning,
like Marvin the Paranoid
Android* made to solve
problems yet all the while
working manually, that’s
me to a Tee - never
Make a mess, just NEVER
make a mess!

Guide To The Galaxy”]
