Beyond the Last Dish

[tmcg]

Owing to all my pro-bono work coming home to roost, despite months of preplanning, at the same time and with the same "we'd like to have this in print by Worldcon" (and at the same time as necessary paying work), I have transcended the stage where I really ought to do the dishes, passed through a stage of obstinate refusal to do any dishes in sick futile personal protest, and entered the highest realm of dish horror.

This morning I found an old but sort of clean mug in the backest back of the cabinet, which allowed me to have coffee. There are still some clean butter knives, so I was able to stir rather than slosh the cream and Splenda.

Once I run out of butter knives, this could get ugly.

Hi, Deb! Yay! Welcome!

Haven't linked here from any sites or message boards yet; figured I'd see how it went, and settle into the community here. So that was the first breadcrumb I left anywhere, and was a sudden whim--I figured if I comment in Webjournals, I should leave a Webjournal URL now and then. Glad you followed! (I think it was a pumpernickel crumb, but if there were caraway seeds, musta been rye.)

I probably use the same liberal amount of dairy product, and you're right. It's the Splenda that mostly needs stirring. It's weird fluffy stuff, and just kind of floats and...bubbles...on the surface unless you apply a utensil. (A finger works, though.)
