Watched Queer Eye for the Straight Guy
Oct. 27th, 2003 01:49 amWhenever I watch it I have this moment of horror, looking around my apartment, at what the Fab 5 would do if unleashed on poor little me and my oh-so-not swinging bachelor pad.
(Of course, by the end of this train of thought, I'm usually contemplating their subtle and delicate torture by an artistically full sink, artwork all hung a hair off-plumb, cat litter and whatnot, so it evens out. I could drive them all screaming mad, except, of course, I would *never* do that. Oh, and except for Kyan, because I have fabulous skin. I'm in my 30's and I got carded tonight for buying Cheap! Mexican! Beer! I bet if it had been expensive scotch, I wouldn't have been asked for ID. Anyways. My secret? Genetics. Plus, I use great skin cleansers every day, sometimes twice if I feel dirty. [Not that way. I saw you thinking that.] I hate feeling dirt or oil on my face or my hands. And I drink gobs of tea/water all day. I love tea.)
But the cool thing about QE is that I look around my apartment and make a specific decision of something I want to *do* to it. That is feasible, will look good, or at least better, and, frequently, can be done right that moment. So, *sometimes* I then bother do it.
Voila! My VHS tapes that I never watch are now in the closet, and my DVDs are now all pretty and visible in their nook and adjoining bookcase. A corner of tidiness for minimal effort. I like that. Because, God knows and so does everyone else, I'm a lazy slob. I need a housekeeper, just one that doesn't try to give me advice about my sex life. Unless said housekeeper *comes* with the sex life, pun intended, in a dusky, curvy, curly-haired horizontal dictionary, brown-eyed seductress/seducer (I'm easy) kind of way.
*smacks lips*
Like I said, I need a housekeeper. Oh, and I'd love it if Thom got me a real couch.
I might not *sit* on it (couches are for cats, right?), but I'd love it.
