If you didn’t know I was lazy before…

2009 June 10
by E.P.

ME: “I wish I could teach Lucy how to vaccum up all her hair because it’s obnoxious.”

MY BOY: “…”

ME: “You know the allergist said I need to vacuum once a day? It’d probably be more manageable if I did it, but vacuuming still sucks. I wish she could clean up after herself. Or iron my clothes.”

MY BOY: “I wish we would teach Lucy how to talk so we could finally know what’s going through her crazy little head.”

  • Beware the Roomba - it handled my basset hound okay, but once my Shepard came into the picture it self-destructed.
  • This made me chuckle! I wish I could teach my boyfriend to vacuum!
  • Jessica
    That's hilarious. Could Lucy do dishes for me too? Miss you!
  • Haha, this is great! I need to get a pet and teach it to talk! :)
  • Cee
    I wish my dog could talk... that would be teh awesome! She is so confusing sometimes.
  • I tell my dogs every day that they need to clean up their dog hair while I'm at work. They never do. I also always ask Kaya to go let Rufus out when I'm too lazy to get up. She doesn't do that either!
  • ria
    wouldn't it be the best if they could do the housework while we were at work?!
  • sleepyjane
    I ask my dogs how their day has been, like they're going to answer me back.

    Just needed to throw that out there.

    And I also wish Lila and Rusty could pick up after themselves. It would be awesome.
  • Hehe, amusing. So many mysteries would be solved if my dogs could talk.
  • Caz
    hahah! Oh I wish Gary could talk sometimes. I'm sure it'd be hilarious.

    I also wish he could wash dishes, as that's the chore I hate most. Vacuuming I can live with.
  • I just became a cat person and I talk to them as if they will talk back!

    Glad you had a great time in Vegas, it sounded so fun!
  • I always talk to my cats and I really wish they could talk back to me! I also wish they would clean their liter box!
  • Wouldn't it be nice if animals cleaned up after themselves... hahahaha good luck with the training ;)
  • KT
    I want to know what my dog is thinking too! One day she is going to talk to me- I just know it! ;-)
  • And to that I say a big, huge DITTO! Sophie sheds like no other, and it'd be sweeeeeet if she could clean up after herself. Or stop shedding. Either one.
  • Damn those pets who don't know how to clean up after themselves!
  • If pets could talk, I think humans would be humbled. (Can one BE humbled? If not, now they can. According to Nilsa!)
  • One word, ROOMBA. I use mine all the time and it does REALLY well with the cat hair from my two cats! It's totally worth the investment, especially if you have allergy issues!
  • Just the other night I told Irish it would be great if Jack could speak so I would know what his random whines, barks and gutteral humming means. It hasn't happened yet.
  • You should totally get a Roomba! Not only because it would be good for your allergies, but also because then you'd own a robot. Which is pretty awesome.
  • Put a Roomba on your Christmas/Birthday list! Do regular vacuuming once a week or so, then run the Roomba each day for "maintenance" vacuuming.
  • Lys
    yes and yes. though if dogs start talking...we'll probably just want them to stop talking because of all the thoughts, haha.
  • hahaha if you ever get her to do so, please send her my way!! I'm still trying to get my friends baby who likes to vaccuum over to my house to clean. If I succeed, I'll so send him your way.
  • Hahahah! SO many times have I told Eric that I wish Adley and Radish would just learn to get their own food. I'll settle for learning to pee outside only though...
