I don't know. I think washing dishes is a lost art.
I wash dishes all of the time. Mostly to relax. I get bored or anxious when I do something for too long. Ten to fifteen minutes for most things, hours on others. It just feels like I'm about to explode if I don't stop and do something. So, I normally either get up and clean, or do the dishes.
The dishes are my first choice. Like I said, they are the most relaxing. I stand over them, scrub them, fill up the sink with water and dish-washing liquid and soak them first. But the strangest thing when washing dishes, and I'm wondering if you feel it too, I get an ache right above the belt line of my lower back, today on the left. It feels like someone is working a wide, spade shaped blade into my side. That shit hurts. Sometimes so much so that I have to stop and walk around in a tight circle.
So, okay, I'm fucking getting old and way out of shape. I get it. When the weather breaks I'll get back into exercise. Right now, it's just a little too cold and I'm a little too lazy. But I'm going to need something soon. I was pulling my little pantry bag behind me on my way home from the food pantry and the familiar stabbing pain in my back was back. What the fuck? I had to stop and switch hands. What's digging into me like that? Sons-a-bitches.
This pain is getting in the way of one of my pastimes. Washing dishes. I must have a mental problem or something. Oh...that's right! I DO! I keep forgetting that there are many screws loose in my head. I mean, a man tells you he finds enjoyment in washing dishes, and the first thing you think of is to LOCK THIS MOTHER FUCKER UP! I understand. Look at me. I have dishpan hands. You know, when your fingertips look like wet raisins and no matter how much you towel them your hands just don't get dry.
I'm constantly filling and emptying my Tupperware just so that I can wash them. There's something wrong here, I just can't put my hands on it. Get it? Put my hands?! Ha ha ha! But honestly that's a vice of mine. I'm sharing this with you because the truth of the matter is that there are things that are being done on the other side of this nondescript door, in a nondescript building, on a nondescript street. Unspeakable things, such as shining and polishing dishes and silverware, filling sinks with soapy water, and using AJAX dish-washing liquid which smells of fruit and bleach.
I mean, who does that? Buy dish- washing liquid because they smell like their favorite fruit, which is grapefruit and orange. Yes, my dishes smell like fruit. You can bite into one of them next time your ass is here trying to find something to eat. Which, I have to admit, is good for me now. My cupboards are filled because of hitting two food pantries today. Now when those fucking nutty church people come up here and start to yell that they have free food downstairs, I can ignore them.
I just have one problem with these people who merit having me break one of my orange smelling plates over their heads, and that is that when they come upstairs, at some obnoxious hour, like 12:30 or 1:00am they always RING MY BELL! I mean it. They walk up and down shouting FREE FOOD DOWNSTAIRS, but when they get to my bell they have to stop and ring it repeatedly. I listen for them to do the same to someone else, but no, just mine. What's up with that? And it's not that their food sucks, which it does. And hey, I know what you are saying: "If it sucks, don't eat it then! You shouldn't complain." Well, the correct answer is: I don't eat that shit, and I'm not complaining about how shitty their food is, I'm complaining that I don't eat that shit and they STILL ring the fuck out of my doorbell as if I'm the first one down there with my hand out! How about that? So do you think I have a right to complain now?
Okay, I'm losing my cool thinking about these jackasses. I'm getting stressed out again. Let me get up and wash some dishes. I've got peach smelling AJAX today. I can't wait until I wash all of my dishes with it.
Until later...stay clean.
