Hi doppelganger!
In my house the chore division has me doing the kitchen after the kids are in bed. I love optimizing and getting everything in, but in the right configuration so it also all gets clean. I get annoyed when my wife starts loading the dishes early, because the space isn't managed perfectly, and I don't get my little zen-zing of 'I had a lot, and I wasn't sure it would work out, but it all fit'.
Plus, with Bluetooth, I no longer get my headphone cord caught on the dishwasher's rack! I listen to podcasts at 3x, and learn so much while getting a feeling of satisfaction for a job well done.
On washing dishes: of course nobody loves doing dishes. But honestly it is zen for me. I have a method and a particular way to stack the dishwasher or dish rack. I don't really let anyone come between me and my process. Bluetooth headphones are a boon to the whole process as you can just plug in, listen to your favorite podcast, and putter around the kitchen getting dishes done!
