I know, right? But I've learned a valuable lesson from this. Saved myself hours. Earlier today, based on the findings of an independent, bipartisan panel of my pets, I voted down dusting. It turns out that the societal fascination with dusting is nothing more than a conspiracy, and the dust I find in my home is planted by the conspiracists to support their agenda.
In sharing my revelation with a friend, I learned that she'd recently voted down laundry in her home for much the same reason. On careful study, she learned that a single female had somehow gone through 11 pairs of socks and underwear in a single week. Now how does that add up? Well, of course, it doesn't, unless you're on to the godless commie pinkos that are planting that crap in your home to keep you busy while they're doing god-knows-what.
As a result of our individual findings, and the mighty summit that occurred earlier today via fb chat, we have commissioned a larger independent study of the entire phenomenon of housework. We are convinced these two smaller incidents are related to this larger conspiracy. The independent panel, headed up by Starbreaker and Skippy (in my house, bipartisan means the dog and the cat agree) will begin as soon as I've taken Star for walkies and fed Skippy what she feels to be a sufficient quantity of kitty crack. But I think the handwriting is already on the wall, so to speak, and their findings, inevitable.
