Cleaning the carpet
...which is not a euphamism for yuri sex. Really.

I'm about to die from exhaustion, between vacuuming, moving furniture, and shampooing the carpet, and I'm only...uh...1% done? Damn these low capacity carpet washers.

*stares at the acres of carpet* The next place had better have a wood and/or tile floor.

Oh yeah, I finished that ficlet thing. [info]pennypaperbrain got a sneak peek, and it's on its way to prereadernessthingys.

Mmm, that's not a real word, now is it...

Edit: I got the hang of the cleaner, and I finished the living room/dining area (the table could use moving, but I ain't doing it myself, it being a monstrosity of glass and brassy metal).

I am become Rug Doctor(tm), cleaner of carpets.

-10 points if you can point out where I painfully ripped that quote from and twisted to my own ends.
-20 if you can figure out a way to put Rug Doctor(tm) and Muraki in a 500 words-or-less spamfic.

**points cannot be redeemed for anything useful. Points exist only because Geniuth hab teh tired and thinks it's amusing to give out points, while speaking in the third person. Zzzzzz**

For the 20 pointer

Muraki gets a lot of yaoi. So who says he wouldn't be just as big a man-whore around women, if there were any he was 'interested' in? 'They call me the Rug Doctor...' God, it's like a bad drama sitcom. Or a really wrong superhero name.

Maybe it's a nickname from college. XD

Or, on a less perverted note, maybe Muraki had to have a part-time job selling vacuum cleaners door-to-door at some point in order to make ends meet--early on in his practice, or in college in order to have some spending money.

Anyway, that's my two cents; I'm off to proof-read. *proofreader, awaaaaay!*

That...is...wrong.

*pause* How about gynecology? Muraki's first specialization, before surgeon.

I believe the quotation "I am become death, destroyer of worlds" is from the Bhagavad-Gita, and if you look in my journal in a moment you will see I have gone mad(der than usual).

That's -30 points then. Am I now on -30 total or did I get any plus ones for the earlier fic inspiration?

Oh. Heh, I must have been very tired. I didn't see that as a minus, but more like a marker in front of the thing to denote a list. So it's +30.

Bonus 10 points if you can name the famous 20th century figure who uttered that phrase. Hint: Boom.

*snuggles a Penny in a knackered with a capital K way...*

Tired. Everything hurts. *fights the carpet*

Oppenheimer. Only I cheated and googled it. And I had to google the quote too. But I did remember it was "I am become death, destroyer of worlds." Just not where it came from.

EAG go sleeeeeep.

*snuzzles* Actually, I'm awake - it's almost 9 AM here.

I don't mind that you googled it - the important thing is that it was found. :D

*waves enthusiastically* oo! oo! I knew that!
Only I knew it from the opening of "Hunt for Red October". And I didn't know who said it,
but I knew what he did. Woohoo! (I just wasn't on livejournal yesterday).
