Any special reason for cleaning your room? I only clean my room when we're gonna need it for guests. So what if nobody can walk into my closet? Why would they need to, anyway?
Good luck with it!
No, not unless you count not being able to find my bed....or anything to wear... Other than that my room was fine just the way it was;)
oh, come on. i was starting to enjoy that! are you gonna send me the rest?
(i have no lightbulbs)
Leaving the lightbulbs aside, you can really do it!
I'll have to email you the rest of the instructions, as long as you promise not to divulge them to anyone. I simply can NOT have all my trade secrets becoming public knowledge! ;)
just as long as it doesn't go the way of the disappearing email...
If this one doesn't show up then we'll know your room isn't really meant to get cleaned...
Goodness....You posted this and didn't finish cleaning!?!!?
Get off the laptop and get movin!!!!
=)
