Cleanliness Freak
Opposites attract. So they say. Well, in my case we definitely were opposites especially in the case of personal cleanliness. But I am not sure about the attraction part.
I used to think that only very dirty people bathed more than once a day. You know like miners, people working in the dirt, gutter cleaners, etc. Ya you guessed right, Vinu bathes twice a day and expects me to do the same. :( No way, I don’t do it. Can’t listen to every nonsense that he throws my way. Anyways, well about me, hmmm, there was a time when I used to bath only twice a week. If my mother reads this she will say, don’t you have any shame, putting this up on the net for everyone to read? Well, it’s not a big thing. I know many folks who do the same. And well, ya, you could say we are doing it for the water conservation society. But it doesn’t really matter. In Melbourne where I was for some time, the pollution is almost non-existent. And the weather is so cold, how can anyone even think of going near water? Geyser? Warm water? Nah, never heard of those.
After applying any sort of ointment or cream, I have to wash my hands before I can even sit near him or before I cook. Well, I do make sure my hands are clean before I cook, but HE has to ensure it every time, in such a case. Hmmp…Earlier I thought it’s good in a way, atleast he will keep his room tidy, will clean up the kitchen after he cooks i.e if ever he cooks! Well, how naïve of me to think so. He is clean only where his twice a day baths are concerned. His wet towel will lie on the bed, his socks in the bedroom, his desk crowded with important and not-so-important papers. Still, wherever he can, he makes sure he imposes his ‘I am the cleaner one’ attitude on me.

Staying with him has changed me a lot. Well, it sure is a lot to bath everyday. The first thing I do is bath, even on weekends. I know, what a waste of good time. But I just can’t help it now. Guess has become a habit. He has made me a freak like him. I hate to waste so much water a day. Poor souls in...uhh...Somalia….is it?
