I use a towel for about a week, unless it seems to smell funky sooner. Tim switches out about halfway through the week. (We have plenty of towels -- though not enough for both us us to use a fresh towel every day -- but I have this habit of washing the towels and putting them right back on the racks I took them from when they come out of the dryer. I need to rotate in some new towels. Literally new, since we got towels for the wedding.) (I sometimes worry I'm turning into Howard Hughes in his later years, although I don't collect my pee in jars.) (YET.)

I sometimes feel ashamed of how long I wear my jeans. If the dog starts licking them, I know it's time for the washing machine.

There's something delicious about lounging about reading novels at 3 pm on a workday.

Ooh, that sounds nice, Calli! Well done.

Oops, I should clarify. We don't have lice in our house, but it's loose in my boy's classroom. I'm just worried we'll get it.

I am halfway to getting my grades all turned in. Tentative yay!

I just did laundry. It was rather hot inside the laundromat, and I noticed the air conditioning vents on the ceiling were all covered in duct tape. As I was packing up, an embarrassed laundromat employee was pulling the tape off and finally letting the cool air in.

Also, I have a cat on my lap, and I'm resting my iPad on her back so I can type this.

I typed in a post and it post And it is not here.

I don't wash most of my clothes after every wearing, and I do JUST FINE.

There was just some name I wanted to look up on there, and now I forget what and why! Edit: Oh, right -- a high school friend with an old-fashioned name.

Some awesome Carl Kassell stuff:

Goddamnit, the appraisal on the Washington house came in lower than the purchase price, and the buyer wants a further reduction on the price.

Ugh, Dana.

I love Carl Kassell.
