I need to finish the dishes. I've spent an hour-ish on them. I think I may only have 20-30 minutes left.
(It is one week of dishes for one person. I dry as I go. I despise dishes. I'm slow at them).
I have promised myself ice cream if I finish my dishes.
(This may have been why I put together the delicious, no-churn oreo ice cream this morning: incentive to myself).
I am pushing my procrastination a little further by writing this post because when I click "post now" I will get up, use the restroom, and then drag myself back to my kitchen sink.

Headcanon that Seven of Nine and Naomi actually find Neelix’s cooking to be fine because it’s the only food they’ve ever eaten/their first introduction to food and when they get to Earth everyone’s so excited to show them Alpha quadrant foods but neither of them likes anything they’re offered very much. Seven doesn’t really care either way except that she has to get used to a whole new palette and Naomi likes the obvious (Ex: candy, cake) but frequently complains that nothing tastes ‘right’.
Naomi: -pushing away a slice of pizza- I don’t like it...
Tom: You’re kidding me. You don’t like pizza?
Naomi: It doesn’t taste right! Make it how Neelix used to.
Tom: You want me to put gerhalorian beets and yuk mushrooms in the sauce so it congeals into a lumpy, slightly sour mess? Is that what you want, Naomi?
Naomi: Yeah :(
I want Naomi and Icheb to work tirelessly together on a side project for years until finally doing it - being able to communicate clearly with those in the Delta quadrant! Icheb uses it to speak to the other borg children (now adults) and Naomi immediately uses it to call Neelix and ask him to find the nearest time portal and toss a big box of leola root into it. She’s been craving it for years! No one told her the Alpha quadrant didn’t have leola root, she wouldn’t have gone otherwise!

trying to mentally cope with the fact that like in 2 weeks I'll be seeing miles in the flesh after he's literally been the sun that I've orbited around for an entire year and im failing absolutely miserably at it.

Ok real quick bc I wanna prove my mother wrong
Because my mom literally brews one pot of coffee at the top of the week (in a normal coffee maker), drinks from the same brewed pot throughout the week (from the pot. No bottling it. No refrigeration. Does not reheat it. Just room temperature coffee that has sat in the pot for up to a week). Makes a new one when she runs out.

Eddie hates doing the fucking dishes. More than anything. They’re gross. Little bits of food are always floating around in the water, and they stick to his hands and he can’t see where anything is because of the soap, so he has to kind of…swish his hand around in there to find the stuff at the bottom and–
Eddie groans, trying to push back the wave of nausea as his hand touches something soggy in the water, yanking his hand out. Steve comes up behind him and laughs, wrapping his arms around Eddie’s waist and resting his head on his shoulder.
“Baby, I told you I don’t mind doing the dishes if it bothers you this much. Just leave them.”
Eddie shakes his head. “I’m not going to make you clean up my mess, Stevie. You didn’t even eat any of this.”
Steve presses a kiss to Eddie’s neck. “Go get ready for bed. I’ll finish these up.”
Eddie sighs and leans back against Steve as he reaches over to dry his hands before turning in Steve’s arms and kissing him gently on the lips. “What if we just let them soak tonight and I take you to bed with me instead?”
