There's a mountain in my kitchen.
It's made of plates and bowls.

It's overrun the sink and more...
including all our souls.
I'd swear the thing's alive,
a reproductive pile.
I've finally come unhinged at this,
my own customized trial.
You'd never guess that dishes
could irk a coed so...
but OCD is real, you see
and peaks when sinks o'erflow.
My eyes well up with tears.
My roomies just ignore it.
But when your life's in disarray,
you sometimes have to CHORE it!
Day two hundred and five:
My fingers have decayed.
It's hard to type with only stubs,
but it's a worthy trade.

i totally know that feeling! that was one of my biggest frustrations with having roommates...i feel your pain! an don't worry, our sink is not always empty now, but it's easier, knowing it's all yours ;)
Oh Sarah, I am sorry to hear about the dishes. You are the funniest girl. I love your writing. You are so real and funny too. I know the dishes can get bad. Good luck with it. I heard of one girl who when the dishes would pile up in the sick would pick them all up and put them on her roommates bed as a not-so-subtle hint! I would suggest not going that far though.
haha I love this.. but I know how you feel about disses.. blah.. haha love you!
I LIKE THE BIT ABOUT PUTTING DISHES IN THE BED....
I WOULD BUY PAPER AND HIDE THE GOOD STUFF..
HANG IN THERE...it dose get better
ummm you are the best writer EVER! I love reading your blog! And I miss you girl!
Ummmm... so I totally love this! Thank God my roommates understand my OCD, and make sure that our dishes don't pile up like this! And, when they start to pile up a little bit, I go crazy and just do them all! I love this poem by the way! I think I might steal it next time my dishes stack up like that!
