Welcome back, Kotter
Great day in the morning, I'm back in Chicago. My lovely girlfriend even cleaned the house in my absence, because I know a certain reader of this website probably trashed it when he was here for a weekend, as I would never leave my house in a state of disrepair.
In fact, my mom used to make us clean the house before we left on a vacation, in case we got killed. She didn't want people coming to get our stuff and discover we are slobs. It sure was a pain in the ass having to clean before leaving for somewhere or another. (Memorable vacations: San Diego, Nova Scotia, Minneapolis.)
Anyway, tomorrow I'm off to orientation at law school. As I've said before, I am scared shitless. Dizamn! But I suppose I will do allright, I'll just have to buckle down and not watch The Simpsons quite so much. Wish me luck!

My mom used to wash the doors to our house before our vacations for the very same reason ...

My mom made us clean the entire house before going on vacation beacuse if we died people might think we were messy. Plus, she thought it was ideal to return to a clean home. Plus, we had to clean the hotel room before letting the maid see how we had trashed it. I have friends who have to clean before their maid comes over so the maid doesn't see how messy they are either!

Maybe it's not such a strange thing...cuz my mom made me do the same thing, and now I feel like I have to....bizarre I say...
