Between the post and the comments I was laughing so hard my cubemate thought I had finally lost it. I pay a larger share of the rent, just because my roommate is a neat freak. I don't have to clean the bathroom or kitchen unless I feel like it. I don't mind vacuuming and I'm willing to do my more than my share of the dishes, but I despise taking the trash out. </p><br /><br /><p>I thought we were going to be screwed after her son moved out, but thankfully her boyfriend usually comes over after he work and he takes it out when he leaves for the evening without being asked. That alone made me change my mind about having him underfoot all the time. (Plus, he also puts the clean dishes away if he gets there before I get home.)<br /><br /></p> LMFAO!

I thought we were going to be screwed after her son moved out, but thankfully her boyfriend usually comes over after he work and he takes it out when he leaves for the evening without being asked. That alone made me change my mind about having him underfoot all the time. (Plus, he also puts the clean dishes away if he gets there before I get home.)

I totally love that I'm not the only person who can spend hours ironing the linens (I iron the tablecloths and napkins as well) yet shudders at the thought of taking the trash out. I agree with Mrs. Greg House that the removal of the garbage is a blue job. I make sure I praise my SO to no end when he does this chore--positive feedback goes a very long way.</p><br /><br /><p>As for the Box o' Shame, after moving four times last year, mine apparently bred and became the Spare Room of Shame that only was dealt with around tax time. </p> Hahahaha!
