Monday: a pet peeve

So, one of my biggest pet peeves is finding dirty dishes in the sink. I know, I know, it seems like a dumb pet peeve. But I finally put into words why I don't like it. When there are dishes in the sink they tend to collect water even when they're there for a short time. So then when I take the dishes out to put in the dish washer my fingers get wet. Then my fingers get cold, and cold fingers make me grumpy.

Sunday: finished

I ended up finishing it today too. Now I just need to talk to someone to figure out how to actually make it into a quilt and not just a top.

Congrats to Brian and Roommate on the birth of their daughter yesterday!

Sunday: getting closer

Friday: toes

Here's what I've noticed recently about my toes: they are almost always cold in the winter. I'll get into bed and they are ice cubes, but then an hour later they are still cold. It has been the downfall of several naps...when I can't get them to change from ice cubes to just cold.

Thursday: dates

So lately I've been having to type the date often. I have found that last year I liked using slashes (12/09/09), but this year the slashes seem more cumbersome and so I'm going with dots more often (1.25.10). I think it is partly due to how the "1" and the "9" are closer to the "." and the "/", respectively.

Wednesday: nada

Today nothing very special happened. I had a hard time staying awake around 2pm but then a second wind kicked in and I got quite a bit done in the last two hours of work. We forgot to put the trash out which normally wouldn't be a big deal, but the trash can was much fuller than normal. I'm sure we'll somehow make it through another week, but it might get a little tight. We also have a computer chair that died so we're hoping the trash people will pick it up too, although I have my doubts.

Tuesday: language

Her's my favorite sentence of the day:

"Shrink all sleeving with the robotic shrinker and all shrink labels"

That's right...I used one word as a verb, noun, and adjective.

Small group party at our house tonight. With a snack-luck. I really like the word "snack-luck." It was a lot of fun, although the boys won the game. :(
