Housekeeping tip from Phyllis Diller: always keep the vacuum cleaner in the middle of the room, with the cord unwound. It looks like you just got interrupted by the doorbell.
I kind of dig this one... It's clever if you keep the cards dusted is the only issue...

LOL I need a housekeeping trick for EXPECTED guests I am like a madwoman then. What I don't understand is like the husband ALWAYS goes out and does yardwork or digs a ditch or something stating it is "helping" and then I always wind up mopping the dang floors. I mean, I know HOW but I always sort of feel "Houseguests don't really care about my yard that much," although maybe with the labyrinth now that is less true. We are getting drive bys now, not just flyovers. The husband wanted to put up a sign that says, "If you want to walk the labyrinth please call "this number." I told him very firmly that he could put up that sign AFTER my background check for work is complete.
He's a doofus sometimes, but he is MY doofus, LOL.

I don't know if I've ever met a doofus engineer, but, any engineer I've ever worked around, or with, seemed, well, a little odd. I think most engineers are in a little different world than the rest of us. 
Engineers are an odd breed, honestly I think many of them are almost on the spectrum, my first fiancé was an engineer and the second husband. LOL, he does come up with some spectacularly bad plans, and yes, he's like a total weirdo.
I kind of like them is the thing. I have compensatory abilities and the ability to assist them in understanding simple things like appropriate social language, things not to call your wife (without getting mad, especially since the PTSD) etc.
One of my first complements from the husband was, "You are like that overlooked Christmas present in brown wrapping only when you open it there is the greatest gift inside." (I think I was the first chick he did not date for looks alone and he's dated some hotties. Problem hotties, but hotties none the less.) I was just like, "Dude, did you call me like kind of plain looking with a great personality? DID YOU REALLY DO THAT?"
LOL, but I didn't dump him over it, to this day he insists it was an AWESOME complement and like, rants about my inner beauty and I just laugh an say, "You compared me to a paper bag. You did. Man up and admit it."
So yeah, that kind of stuff that engineers do. Fortunately I am okay with my outer beauty since my first husband was SUPER ATTRACTIVE although I did quickly learn that looks alone are NOT going to save a marriage-- but the kid is SUPER hot. So glad he got my brain and my ex's looks.
Sincerely,

I love engineers.
Yes, many may be misfits socially.
But, so much of what we love/like/enjoy including our phones computers this website our ecigs...are thanks to them.
And besides that, I love them because they're true to themselves without all the other crap. Many years ago, I worked in a software engineering group, though I wasn't deep down one of them. I decided to get into marketing, for career advancement stuff. A parting word for me was: go over there with the bull....ters.
They do their thing and we benefit. They have their fun and we benefit.
Long live engineers.

The doppelganger meme makes me uncomfortable. I agree that the resemblance is there, but the circumstances where we "met" the person are not funny. There are so many people in this world that have shoes like hers that I don't think she should be the subject of a joke.
Could we agree to leave her (and the other side too) out of the joke threads?
