                          | Because I am, after all, a grown up |  
                          | I did do work after my last post.  I read 2 assignments and wrote a short paper.  Not too shabby for a lazy-sloth-like-being, eh? 
 It is my turn to "cook" tonight.  See the quotes?  That means, "it's my turn to go and pick up some prepared foods at Trader Joe's."
 
 Tonight's lazy-ass meal -- a roasted chicken (perhaps 2, they're little, and we like our chicken), pita, hummus, tabouli, and if I can find some - yogurt mint cucumber sauce.
 
 Beloved just rolls his eyes at me.  Why oh why, when I only have 2 nights/week that I'm responsible for am I so very pathetic?  I am, really, so very pathetic.
 
 Thursday?  It's my other night to "cook."  Beloved works into the evening, and the girls and I are going to the play (I'm actually working at it ... my kids aren't in it that night), so I'm fairly certain I'll take the Qs out for sushi.
 
 If I can get my shit together, I really could COOK on T/Th.  I could plan a meal, do the shopping, and actually take out some pots and pans.  The problem is I need to carve out time to go through recipes.  This is where I fall short - this is what I can't find within myself.  The ideas, the planning.  I am done with class on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 9:30 a.m.  I certainly have time to shop and cook.
 
 Other than complaining about my lack of domesticity, tonight will be an exciting evening.  IN the works:  American Idol and LAUNDRY!!
 
 The only good thing about hte laundry is that it will be primarily the girls' stuff tonight (with a few of my stinky gym clothes thrown in for good measure), which means they fold, they put the crap away.  Which is yet another of my flaws .... I never put laundry away.  I have 2 stacks of folded laundry next to my bed, b/c I washed it, I dried it, and I folded it.  I just didn't put it away.
 
 Oh yeah, and I have a laundry basket with another load of clean clothes that I did NOT fold.
 
 Pathetic.
 
 Or, perhaps, just in need of some domestic assistance.  Next year, Zuska, next year.

                                            Um, yea... why put clothes away when you're just going to wear them again?  And they're so much easier to find and put on when they're in a pile on the chair or bookcase or whatever.
 I also never make my bed.  So much more inviting to get back into later that way!
