It has to be next to something! There have to be two! It's a sequence.
I'm not evil again. Why does everyone think that?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I've had washing machines just like that, Gud!
I tend to throw in a "this coming Saturday" into the mix, meaning (in this case) day after tomorrow (which at some point is where anyone having this discussion with me is going to e forced to land, and probably both of us will say "Day after tomorrow? Huh, I guess it is" (or, you know, "No, the Saturday after that" if that is what they meant)). I am on the side of relentless questioning and confirmation to be sure is what I'm saying, I think.
And confirming with "the 16th" would probably lead to actually looking at a paper calendar or at least my phone. Actually, that's probably inevitable whatever route we take to get there. There might be pointing required.

Also, I am a firm believer in having a spare set of sheets and swapping them out so it is at least theoretically possible to change the bed without doing laundry, but I can see the appeal of just having the one and not having anything to store.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
but cotton sheets and t-shirt sheets and flannel sheets and modal sheets. old sheets and new sheets (feel totally different) and plain sheets and decorated sheets. I might have a sheet problem.

I definitely have a sheet problem. But I get the appeal of the minimalist approach.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Yeah, we have at least 4 sets of sheets in regular rotation (though one is due to be retired because of a Mystery Hole neither one of us can figure out the cause of). Every Friday, I change the sheets. My whole weekend is thrown off if I don't start with clean sheets on Friday night.

Clean sheets are the best. Smooth and cool and fresh. An excellent reason to get into bed early and read.

I am pro having a spare set of sheets. In fact, I recently bought new ones because one of my sets had a big hole/rip appear on the bottom sheet. But when I made the bed with my current set I realized they ALSO have a rip! So now I have to buy another new set so that I have two sets still.

Also I made blueberry pie (because I already had frozen pie crust) but didn't start until almost 8, so am hoping it will magically solidify overnight because the piece I took out was just refilled with the remaining blueberries and juice. But I couldn't not EAT the pie on pi day surely?

Yeah, you were obligated to eat some of that pie.
