Dust is a Must

The end-of-year thing here seems to be the big clean out. At the office and at home. I don't fancy cleaning out the office, so I may try and pull the foreigner card and pretend I don't realise I'm supposed to take part. Meanwhile my room could do with one. I don't know why but rooms in Japan accumulate dust so quickly - it piles up like tumbleweed in only a matter of days. Little dust bunnies, everywhere...

You'd think that like the dehumidifier they would have invented a machine that sucks the dust out of the air before it can build up on furniture - a dedustifier, shall we say. But then, this being Japan, even if they did have such machines, we'd probably be out of dust-season by Japanese standards and need a dustifier with a little swizzle nozzle to spout out dust in time for the big clean up.
