You know that errant student who had a financial hold on her adding the class? She emailed me this morning asking me to send her the materials for our group work tomorrow. Let's just say that the tone of my email was not very understanding. I explained to her that I could no longer allow her to be in the class because she failed to come through as she promised. End of discussion. I felt a little biotchy, but I kind of think she deserved it.
Our dishwasher broke. Our old and faithful dishwasher of 22 years finally met its final reward and has moved on to where ever broken dishwashers go. But, it left a whole bunch of water all over my hardwood floor. For that last passive-aggressive act, I say good riddens! Here's the impressive part. Dan went to Best Buy, all on his own, and picked out and ordered a new dishwasher. He chose the exact one that I would have chosen if I had been there. He's such a gem. He knows how busy I am and was thoughtful enough to take care of things so I wouldn't have to. I think he's a keeper. I'm looking forward to starting my new relationship with my new dishwasher, but it won't be here until Sept. 30th. That's just too much time to have to wash and dry the dishes the old fashioned way, so I decided to make an additional contribution to our local landfill by using paper plates, bowls, and glasses. I know, no need to thank me.
