I've been pet sitting for the past two weeks, having only gone home so TimeWarner can make my internet work again. When I left, I did my dishes, and as far as I could remember, there was a good amount of dish soap left in the bottle. When I return, there are dishes in the sink (as if I should expect anything less of my roommate) and she is nowhere to be seen. I think she's discovered my hatred of dirty dishes lying in the sink for days(!!) because she continues to leave them there and I continue to do them. I'm like a free maid (yippee!). This day is no exception, so I grab the sponge (which is seriously disgusting by the way. Why is it so hard to toss out the dirty sponge, reach down under the sink and grab a new one? Bueller? Bueller?), give it a good rinse and grab the dish soap. But wait a second, the bottle is...empty. Like, completely empty. Why is it that I've been gone for two weeks, my roommate has been here every day, and yet there is absolutely no dish soap? I will tell you why: it is apparently much too complicated for her to go to Walgreens (located .2mi from our house), purchase a brand spankin' new $4 bottle of dish soap for, toss out the empty bottle and place the full bottle on the sink's counter, that's why! I mean, really? So my passive aggressive self is not buying soap either. I'm alright just using hand soap, they're practically the same thing. And besides, I don't leave my dishes out for days(!!) without even rinsing them so the food gets all crusted on them and no matter how many times they get washed, they are riddled with permanent food particles.
And, breathe.
UPDATE: Someone made a Target run and miraculously failed to purchase any soap whatsoever. Lovely, just lovely.
