The clean up woman

I was running a few minutes late for work. I decided that I would not worry about making the bed today because it was Chris' day off. No big deal, it would get done at some point. Upon my return, I opened the door only to find that our entire place was a mess. I go in our room and the bed is still unmade. I head into the kitchen and there are dirty dishes in the sink (none of which are mine). Meanwhile, he is killing zombies on TV!! I felt an intense rage come over me. I say to him, "you didn't have time to make the bed?" He says, "it's my day off."

What the heck is that supposed to mean!!!???

Now, I consider myself a reasonable person. Okay, so it's your day off. You want to relax, but for corn sake, are you really incapable of cleaning up after yourself? I proceeded to clean up the kitchen, bedroom, etc. I wondered, are all men this inconsiderate when it comes to helping out? My brother was always very meticulous about cleaning his room. My dad was also pretty good about keeping things organized. However, that is just two men, I hardly consider that a good sample size. I suppose I may never know.
