I always bitch about cleaning, then quietly submit and do it anyway. It takes me about 5hrs to clean my whole house because I strive to clean it spit spot and perfect.
There's a metaphor there.
Something about never wanting to do work or try hard, but then I do it. It takes me forever but I do it anyway and it ends up being not too shabby. I give myself a pat on the back, get a C+, then move on.
