Preparing for Departure
Oct. 7th, 2006 08:45 pmSo, I'm wandering around giving my stubbornly empty mailbox dirty looks and getting myself assembled to leave as soon as I pick up S. & T. from the port tomorrow morning. This consists of washing all the towels that might be dirty (including some that were lying around when I got here), doing dishes, noting what she'll want to pick up at the store, and in general making sure that the place is as good or better than when I arrived.
I'd like to say that it's because I'm a naturally organized, conscientious house guest, but the truth is, S. once reamed me royally for leaving some towels (freshly laundered!) lying around. Never mind that that was about ten years ago, and she's mellowed a bit. I'd rather be compulsively paranoid than precipitate another psychotic break on her part.
( Sometimes, I have this fantasy... )
Okay, enough of this babble. Time to put the laundry in the dryer.
