Nutty as 12 monkeys in a 10 monkey barrel

Domestic goddesses have infiltrated everybody's lives and raised the bar way too high.

It takes time and energy, and if I'm working, then I'd rather flop in front of the telly than put on a tiny dress and work out how to get myself to God knows where. I mean, lazy some would call it.
