Its funny how you push my buttons Because somehow it never fails The same selfish attitude A web of dishonest tales. "I do everything in this household" "You don't appreciate me enough" But honey, you would think again If the going sure got tough. Those dishes covered in grease The grim on the kitchen floor didn't wash them selves last night While you sat in your chair to snore. Remember that smell of death and rot Hovering from the trash? Its happy self didn't walk outside.. And jump towards the can in a flash. Those pretzels you dropped Onto the floor all around The carpet didn't eat them They didn't soak into the ground... The dust didn't disappear The bed didn't make itself The dog didn't take herself for a walk The cereal didn't hop onto the shelf. You may be the bread winner The king of his domain But your not my king, mister I'm not here to play your game. So when you're off you high horse And come down here and see Maybe you should spend some time Trying to appreciate me. |

this is just too funny I had to come back to read it again to make myself feel not-so-alone in my quest to make it through one more day with my roommie he's just like a teenager when he's home for the two weeks he's not offshore...he sits in front of the TV watching movies all day and night, he plays on the computer, he eats constantly and leaves mess everywhere, never lifting a finger to clean anything...good thing I get two weeks away from him to revive my sanity, enjoy a clean house, and have some peace and quiet |

oh and I forgot to mention his annoying little habit of putting his dirty clothes piece by piece into the washer and for whatever reason not starting it up to wash so when I go to wash my clothes, low and behold...I can't |
