On a good day, same here. When I just don't feel like it, they may
sit overnight. I try not to let that happen too often, but it does
happen.

And my partners are perfectly willing to wash dishes for me. One of
them does it without being asked, and the other will do them if asked.
Either way, it's not like I'm doing all the dishes in the house all
the time, but since I don't mind doing them, I tend to do most of
them.
