I hate cleaning up dishes/kitchen so much that I know if I am doing it as I go, there won't be some abominable, sticky pile after I am done eating (when the last thing I want to do is get up and work) and feeling like I need a nap. Same thing...when I clear the guests' dishes for each course, I immediately stick 'em in the dishwasher before bringing out the next course.

I've been a culprit too Coz I move bags only for women LMAO Almost like a reflex action. Guys see I don't budge and they take a nearby seat and all of a sudden a woman appears and I'm all movey-budgey. Makes the guys look at me like I'm some benedict arnold bastard
Benjamen Franklin was really the proper womanizer of our F-ing fathers...thinking better of it, since you are not natively born, I should perhaps not abbreviate Founding...

Given that exercise raises body temperature for about three hours, which inhibits sleep, I tend to go with the experts who say not to do it that close to bedtime. I certainly find it wrecks my sleep because of its energizing effects, particularly cardio. Weightlifting, meh, not as much, but who wants to lift weights when they're already tired? That's a great way to get injured.

Generally, 5 or 6 hours before bedtime is the best time, because 5 to 6 hours afterward your body temperature drops, which actually helps you feel sleepy.

Frankly, I prefer to work out first thing in the morning, but since I already have to get up at 5 just to shower and drive to work, that would mean getting up before 4...not gonna happen.

Cooler temps does help with sleep induction, but there are plenty of people who can exercise in the early evening and still get to bed a couple of hours later.

Well we don't share a home, so when he's here I usually will clean up as I go. At his house, HE cleans up. Unless I'm making a HUGE mess...and then I feel a bit guilty and help out.

There may be but one interface with me in your condition. Perhaps just one time, if we are in agreement, I shall consider your case in argument; and if such thing presented to me requires an aggressive dispatch of a troublesome individual , I could undertake that for you in your stead that you may guard your stress. I only ask that you specify which organ I am to retrieve, and whither I put it on your step in a wicker basket, a bag of burlap hung to spoil, or I am to bury it in the garden.

Don't you HATE the people who are already huge and have their bags occupying the rest of the seat when many people are standing and latecomers are looking to find a seat, and they make no effort to move their bags. Their attitude I guess.
I hate this as well. This behavior is from large and petite people. I sat on a bag once. A older woman saw me coming to the seat. I looked at her and her bag. She looked me in the eye and turned her head. I positioned my bags, so she would know I'm about to sit. Nothing from her. I sat and she said, EXCUSE ME. I said, no problem. She gave me dirty looks all the way uptown.
