"People talk about escapism as if it's a bad thing... Once you've escaped, once you come back, the world is not the same as when you left it. You come back to it with skills, weapons, knowledge you didn't have before. Then you are better equipped to deal with your current reality."

This is literally the only thing that ever gets me to the gym.
I had this problem too. For the first time basically ever I saw the movie before I read the book, though, so I actually for the first time ever found myself liking the movie better. I think if I had read the book first I would've liked it better. They were just so different. It's the same way that I felt about PS I love You.
I don't know what deep cleaning is. There's cleaning, and there's picking up stuff and putting it away. I'm not sure what the different degrees of cleaning are.
@MrsC7 I totally would have cancelled the order. Shipping in general makes me stabby. I happily spend an extra $20 to save $10 on shipping all the time.
I try to do it at least once a season so I start with a very fresh, clean slate.

I guess we do everything except for moving furniture on a regular basis. I'll pass the vaccuum under the couch and stuff, but behind bookshelves and stuff I don't even want to know.
We don't have curtains, just blinds, and those get washed/dusted every other week as part of the regular routine. My cabinets go to the ceiling, so I don't have to dust up there. What a PITA that would be! I only wash windows when they have fingerprints (more likely dog noseprints) on them.
