Keyboard Learns Bedroom Technique
The other household chore I hate is making the bed. Messing the bed is no problem, I have that under control. First thing every morning our bed was always made once it was vacated. I try to follow that tradition each and every day. And it goes pretty good, except for a couple of things.
When you spread the final sheet across the bed, why is the far side always shorter than the one next to you. So another toss for adjustment and it should be perfect, right? Nope, now the far side is almost touching the floor and the one next to you is about four inches long. Third toss, ah, got it right this time - except at the top there isn't enough to tuck in. Fourth toss, sides look equal, hangs over the bottom, ample to tuck in at the top. For F%*&# sake the thing is crooked, one corner is longer than the other!
Then there is the bed spread. How do you tell if it is inside out? The dangly doodads look the same either way. Another toss. Wouldn't you know it. The dang thing is crosswise, upside down. Didn't you see the picture of a basket of flowers on it dummy. Toss - too far over. Toss - crooked. Toss - nothing left for the foot of the bed. I am thinking if I stayed in bed all day I wouldn't have to make it.
The pillows? Oh were they supposed to go under the bed spread or on top of it? Now look at the dust bunnies all over the place. Go get the magnetic broom.
What's the lump in the middle? You mean the bed? Oh, that's the cat.
