My roommate Leo and I now sing our song called ”I do my dishes every day” whenever we do our dishes…. It’s sort of a Gregorian chant with Tritones and harmonies. now when I do my dishes alone I think of it
i think this is a deeply innate part of human life to write songs with the people you live with to recall in regular moments. whether in a family, a partnership, friendship, or roommate relationship it is a sign of healthy bonds and joy.
I once had a roommate who would wash her dishes to “it’s all coming back to me now” every night. She said it was long enough to get through all the dishes.
Getting to put on a good song and zone out on some manual labor to end the day
Gazpacho only in the late summer, persimmons only in the winter, etc. just because we can import anything from anywhere anytime doesn’t mean we should. Nothing is special if you can have it whenever you want it.
What is she doing on her calculator app ?? Who is he texting ??? What are they listening to on Spotify ??? To truly be on the pulse of culture we must invade the privacy of our fellow commuters just a little bit
