    The hard part is starting to clean. Once I do start I just keep getting more and more in depth. I'm pretty sure its part of the brainwashing they drilled into me during bootcamp.

    However, I usually half ass tidying up from the beginning. Go hard or go home do something else.

    I don't really half-ass it, I'll just take a lot of breaks if I get tired of it
    Breaks are a HUGE part of my cleaning repertoire. "Eh, I've been doing this for 10 mins., what's on TV?"
    That sounds like my work ethic.

    I actually enjoy cleaning, when it's for the benefit of other people. My personal stuff will remain a mess.

    My daughter puked all over the carpet yesterday and my first thought was 'better spray that with oxyclean before it sets.' I guess I'm a cleanbot first, father second.

    Looking at the clock and the fact that I am now sitting at my PC, i'd say it took about 45 minutes.

    I'm half-donkey'd about thinking about cleaning (I always put it off until I absolutely have to) but when I DO start cleaning, no one can tame me when I unleash the bleach beast.

    People using excessive amounts of bleach in their products eh? I'm not crazy about bleach. I try to avoid it at all cost. Luckily my tub is pinkish instead of white. I'm kinda like Psychotic in that I go through bouts of cleanly frenzy but then other times just half-ass it. I try to clean enough during my fits so that I don't have to worry about cleaning as much for a while and I try to just keep it that neat. Doesn't always work though especially if I have company over and their messy.

    I was told to never half-ass anything. Whatever it is you're doing, always use your whole ass.
