some things cannot be bleached

I went to the Mall today because I needed my computer serviced at the Apple Store. The ‘genius’ at the genius bar that serviced my computer commented that I had the cleanest keyboard he had seen in a while and that I had the first computer in months that did not have a keyboard area full of pubic hair. I asked him to wash his hands and he thought I was crazy, but I persisted and insisted. I am not judging what other people do at their computers but I am not keen on someone being up to their elbows in other people’s pubic hair touching my belongings. I had run out of the hand sanitizer that I carry in my brief case so I offered him a Clorox wipe.

Right now, he is probably writing about the nut job that did not have hair or food in his computer that carried Clorox on his person. This was a free service and he showed me a few other tricks that my computer can do so it was not a waste of time, I wish I could have called it a wash. I did buy products to clean my computer and other digital equipment after being admonished that I indeed should not bleach everything and that my computer is one of those things that is too ‘delicate’ for bleach. I really am disinterested in owning anything that cannot be bleached.

Could you come over and clean my computer keyboards? Bleach? I am like the dad in Big Fat Greek Wedding because I think that Windex works great on everything. (scuffs on shoes, marks on the walls--it is perfect)

You're such a clean freak you can't even do a deal without wanting to "call it a wash."
