A Sure Sign

posted Monday, 6 April 2009

     You know how I know I'm feeling better these days? Because not only did I clean the house yesterday, but I actually enjoyed doing it!

     Now I know some of you are thinking, Marcy, enjoying housework is usually a sure sign of going crazy, but in my case I have to disagree. See, for let's say, oh, the past three years or so, I've taken very little pleasure in any form of domesticity. Everything seemed like such an effort, even basic housecleaning, let alone decorating or painting or any more-advanced forms of domestic engineering. So for me to not only think, Hey, I should clean the house, but to then actually do it and enjoy it--that's really saying something.

     I think you should help me celebrate with a few tunes.

DiskJokke--"Some Signs Are Good" mp3 off Staying In (buy) This is housecleaning music at its finest!

LCD Soundsystem--"Daft Punk Is Playing at My House" mp3 off LCD Soundsystem (buy) A classic. No cleaning should be done without it.

Marshall Price--"Beyond the Pleasure Principle" mp3 off Hear At Last (buy) Where did I find this? It's great!

p.s. Happy Paul Haig Day!

I enjoy most of it, too, with the exception of anything involving the toilet. LOVE to organize and de-clutter, though.

Happy for your achievement!

I'm enjoying it a bit more now that I'm living in a house that I like, but still...

I just discovered DiskJokke last week on a Smalltown Supersound compilation. Ace.

nat--do you hire yourself out for the de-cluttering service? ;-) ita agree about the toilets, tho. yuck!

afm--it does make a difference when you love the space you're in, especially as far as decorating.

tim--i would never have pegged him as a norwegian, though. that surprised me for some reason. must be a cultural bias on my part!


all mp3s are for sampling purposes only. you like it? you buy it. you want me to take it down? let me know. and for the uninitiated, if you wish to listen to a song, click on the little blue arrows and they will stream. thanks, your host and music lover, mjrc.
