PSA for all would-be hausfraus

[muckefuck]

Oh, and it appears the cost of my discreet vagueness in this entry was engendering domestic insecurity among various real-life friends who read it. So I feel compelled to offer this disclaimer: If I have been to your place and eaten a meal off of your table then you have nothing to worry about. "Student squalour" is more than having a lot of books and mix-and-match furniture salvaged from the alley. Perhaps I simply knew (and lived like) more slovenly students than some of you, but to me it connotes a standard of unkempt nastiness that isn't in the same league with few dust bunnies and a catbox in the bathroom. Cat owners in particular take note: There's nothing untoward about your place smelling of cat if you have a cat, just as there's no shame in your living room looking like kids play in it if you actually have kids.
