When we clear up after eating in the evening, I think dp's default would be that if the dishwasher is loaded and on, the job is done. You would clear up the rest when it's time to reload the dishwasher.
I don't work like this: I clear everything else to one place and wipe things up and scrape stuff and wipe surfaces.
He knows this, so when we are getting near the end, he will say 'so are we done in here?' as though the 'rules' are unfathomable and illogical and arbitrary, and only I can say 'yes, according to my mystical laws, we have now done enough'. This evening I said 'well I dunno, it's not some arbitrary thing I made up, what do you think?'. And now he's in a colossal mood.
Not helped I imagine by the bottle and a half of wine he's drunk all on his own, and become an unappealing combination of belligerent and sleepy.
God I'm pissed off and depressed.

'are we done in here?' Is this annoying?
