    Sitting here waiting while the boys' car gets it oil changed. Then I will go get the tires rotated. Then I plan to hopefully finish up some shopping. I hope to be home by lunch as should hubby. He has a horrible headache today. We are supposed to go see The Hobbit as a family later this afternoon. We'll see if he feels like it. I'm sure he'll go as he won't want to disappoint the kids.

        That sounds excruciatingly painful.

            Outreach concert went very well last night, though exhausting. Ended the program with the beginning, intermediate, and advanced students playing a 4 part harmony arrangement that I wrote. This is the first time in a year and a half the staff has started working together without overt clashing. And of course the program is out of money. They don't even have $$ to pay for January so we're planning to have a 5 week break in hopes they can round up the funds. Even if people are getting along better I still hope the program folds. It's terrible to say, but true. It's been such a headache for so long I'm ready to move on. I've been ready to move on but still feel like I'm stuck in a political choke hold. As it is I need to keep reserving that time in case they are able to start the semester. Which means in all likelihood I will have huge gaps in my day with nothing to do, too far away to go home for a few hours. I guess the idea of joining a gym in another town seems kind of cool..

            Last day of teaching. If I could think of a good enough excuse I'd cancel on those fuckers.

                Be glad you aren't fishing out wet paper towels and other wrappers from the sink like I am...

                I'm totally guilty of leaving dishes in the sink though!

                  I find 'the runs' to be a great excuse...nobody asks for details...

                    It truly boggles the mind. He ate some leftovers when he got home this morning, so I know he also dirtied up a plate and a couple of utensils. Those things made it to the dishwasher, but the glass? For some reason the glass never does. I think he thinks he might get some more to drink before he goes to bed and he doesn't want to dirty up another glass so he leaves that one out, except he *never* gets more to drink. It's a really bizarre mental block that I don't fight anymore -- I tried, it just wouldn't take.

                      Hm. I have a set of water glasses, and I *always* have one out either on the coffee table or on the counter. I will use one for several days before I put it in the dishwasher and get out another to use. They only ever have water in them, though, and I DO put it in the dishwasher when I'm done with it.

                      If you just left the glass on the counter, would he reuse it the next day, or put it in the dishwasher himself when he realizes he's not going to reuse it?

                      Leaving it in the sink, while putting other dirty dishes in the dishwasher, is just weird, to me. I consider "in the sink" to be "needs to be cleaned" territory, not "I might reuse this" territory.

                        Haha, I'm the same way, I always have a water glass on my nightstand that gets used for a couple days at a time. However, to me the kitchen sink is dirty, germy territory (even when it is freshly cleaned, it's a mental boundary) so that as soon as something enters the sink it is finished. I often think I need to just get a water bottle that I like instead of having a glass sitting out, but it turns out I prefer to drink out of glass and they are easier to wash anyway.

                          I could get used to these 2+ hour naps! E is at home with me today because she had a fever yesterday. I actually got some work done!

                            I do that too with water glasses. I have one that sits on my bedside table that I'll reuse for days. He doesn't drink water though, just soda or juice, and he usually doesn't rinse the glass out so it'll just sit there and get dried up sticky gunk in it. I've tried leaving it alone to see if he'll reuse it or put it in the dishwasher himself. He either gets another glass or it sits there long enough that I need to run the dishwasher and I end up having to put it in there anyway. He's got that selective blindness disorder where he doesn't see his own mess

                              Welding a cracked front end loader on a tractor when the farmer's lad got ahead and hit the slag off the weld. Lucky it missed my eyeball but hit my eye lid and gave me a full thickness burn to the upper lid and bottom lid close to the corner of my eye. Poor lad screamed and to be honest he's more traumatised than me and it's my fault for not explaining the job better before starting.

                              No pain as too much nerve damage. I look truly awful now but hoping the scars will add to my rugged charm.

                              Truth is feeling pretty sorry for myself.
