On House Cleaning.
I arose this morning shortly after 10:00am. At which time, I made a decision: take a break from work and clean the apartment. I wasn’t really happy with this decision, but the apartment has needed a good cleaning for quite some time, and my being here alone had only intensified the problem.
In order to get me excited about cleaning, I setup a party on ChoreWars, a site that lets you create characters, Dungeons and Dragons-style, and create Adventures (Quests for you WoWers) that involve normal household chores. I hadn’t used the site until today (shows how much I clean), but I figured this was a great way to keep my spirit up. I setup three adventures, Excommunicate the Refuse, Pick up for Vacuuming, and Vacuum. All of them came off without a hitch, but they took me a good few hours and got my character to level 2 with some gold. I did a few other things, like empty the dishwasher, reload the dishwasher, start the laundry, fold the laundry and straighten up my desk, but I forgot to make adventures for them all. So, may ChoreWars isn’t necessary, but it sure makes cleaning more fun.
Shortly after, Kara made it home from the beach. This was followed by the two of us heading out to lunch at Quiznos and her leaving again to get some work done on her 1st Grade Classroom at Yacolt Primary.
Now, I’m back to work. Next up: Rhungard.
