I'd Rather Be Pickling, But I Have To Vacuum All. The. Time.


There are two rugs in my apartment. I bought them before I bought any furniture, of course, because it was easier to do it that way than try to levitate all the furniture and install the rugs underneath afterward.  It quickly became apparent that the rugs were total fuzz factories and required constant attention.

My first weapon was a lint roller, which I used up in its entirety trying to wrangle the living room rug.  This left me nothing to use for de-fuzzing the bedroom rug and soon tumbleweed-sized balls of lint began to collect on the floor around the bed.  Next I bought a rechargeable hand-held DustBuster and finally broke down and bought a proper full-on upright vacuum cleaner. 

Still the rugs mock me.  The lint production is constant.  The maintenance is daily.  How can I pickle with so much fuzz on the floors?!
