Laugh. It was one of those days where it should have been an easy
and quick day for me, but due to staffing issues I ended up having
to do more then I wanted on a Sunday.

Mom said there woulf be days like that. Only she didn't mention that
there would be so many in a row.

Dennis (house-mate) is big on paper plates. I use the real deal and
wash up as soon as I'm done. Had too many heavy meals (not really

So do we. However when you have one small sink and no counter space
what so ever, when we have company we would spend even more time
washing up. As it is, we're still working on it 2 days later.

I've got one sink and damned little usable counter space. And no dining table/chairs. I generally eat at my confuser deak (after covering the
keyboard if it's a "messy" or drippy dish). When cooking I wash up as I
go. That has two benefits - the debris has not a chance to "set-up" and
cake on the dish/utensil. And it's pretty much ready for immediate use
on the next part.

If I hit the lottery for a good whack - or get an inheritance of good
size I'm going to design and have built my dream kitchen with all the
toys I've ever drooled over. And then make that the centre of my new
home.

But, that's in future. For now I'll deal with things as they are.

Hi Dave,

I'll do the same. I will try to do that today.

weren't for the smooth top electric stove there would be no prep
space at all.

I work with the old style stove top and still use it as prep space.
Just throw a big ass cutting board on top. It's really a horrible kitchen.

And having a house-mate who is a pack-rat doesn't help the situation
at all.

I used to be that way, now my things are mostly thrown out or sometimes
Andrea puts them in storage. Mostly I just tell her I don't care and to
throw it all out.

... Nationalise crime, and make sure it doesn't pay.

SWIPE! Another tag-line in the file.

I can't believe you've been able to swipe a couple in the last week, I
use the same tagline file... Though I'm using a different manager so that
may be why.
